The Mark-10 WT3-201M motorized wire pull tester measures pull-off forces of up to 200 lb / 100 kg on crimped terminals. The WT3-200M tests according to UL, ISO, ASTM, SAE, MIL, and other testing standards. The WT3-200M can perform destructive or optionally Non-destructive testing, such as pulling to a load or maintaining a load for a specified period of time, as per the requirements of UL 486A/B. Programmable pass/fail limits with red and green indicators and audio alerts help identify non-conforming samples.
The tester accommodates wire sizes up to AWG 3 (0.25 in [6.3 mm] OD), or custom sizes via the available machinable blank fixture. Auto-start automatically begins the test when the wire sample has been loaded. When the sample breaks, the tester can auto-reverse, output the peak force, store the peak force, and zero the display automatically, thereby increasing testing throughput. Further testing efficiency is achieved via the available Profiles function, through which multiple test setups may be saved and recalled as required.
On-board data storage and statistical calculations is provided for up to 2,000 readings, with available date and time stamp for each saved data point. Data can be transferred to a PC or other data collector via USB, RS-232, Mitutoyo (Digimatic), or analog outputs.
The WT3-201M includes MESURLite data acquisition software. MESURLite tabulates continuous or single point data. One-click export to Excel allows for further data manipulation.
