Test Stations.png

DESCRIPTION

AMAC supply Tinker & Rasor^TMpolycarbonate test stations.

The cathodic protection test stations are high strength, fire resistant, non conductive, maintenance free terminals for monitoring electric currents and potentials.

APPLICATION(S)

Cathodic protection test stations are used as a terminal for test leads to read:

Underground structure-to-soil potentials
Cathodic protection anode currents
The resistive integrity of insulation flanges and joints
The integrity of insulation between all types of underground metallic structures, such as between a carrier and its casing
Stray currents on all types of underground
structures.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Sizes
Small (T1): comes with either 2 or 3 terminals.
Large (T3): 5 terminals (can take up to 11)

Colours
Available in orange, yellow, green, blue, red, purple, black and white.

Mounting
Mounted onto riser pipes, reducers are available.

Test Station Accessories

Shunts:

#146-001 Orange, 0.001 Ohm, 25 Amp capacity
#146-002 Yellow, 0.01 Ohm, 8 Amp capacity
#146-003 Red, 0.1 Ohm, 2 Amp capacity

T-1 & T-3 Adapters:

T-1 and T-3 Adapters allow fitting of CP test stations on existing riser pipe of varying sizes. Choose from these sizes:

#009-015 T-3 Adapter, 3.5" to 2.6" pipe
#009-016 T-3 Adapter, 3.5" to 1.6" pipe
#009-017 T-1 Adapter, 1.6" to 3/4" pipe

Shock Guards:

The Tinker & Rasor Shock Guard fits the Model T-3 "Top Hat" test station. The Shock Guard fits on one side of the test station terminal, keeping field personnel and others away from wire connections. The Tinker & Rasor Shock Guard minimizes the risk of electrocution, and meets NACE Standard SP-01-77/4.4.4 when used with non-metallic Tinker & Rasor Banana Plugs.

Binding Posts:

The Tinker & Rasor Model T-3 Test Station comes with standard rapid wire connection Binding Posts. There are other kinds of terminal connectors available, including Banana Plugs, with an exploded view of the Shock Guard. Terminal Connectors available include:

Standard Binding Posts
Non-metallic Banana Plugs
18-8 Stainless Steel 1/4 x 20
Non-metallic 5-way Binding posts
and many more...

#164-060 Terminal Binding Post (Only) (Rapid Wire Connector)
#073-070 Terminal Binding Post Hardware Kit (Includes: 1 Terminal Binding Post, 2 Nuts, 1 Locking Washer, 2 Nylon Washers)

Anti-Spin Gaskets:

"Anti-Spin" Gaskets are available for all Tinker & Rasor Test Station models. The "Anti-Spin" gasket does just that, it keeps the terminal from spinning on the riser pipe. This prevents the test station from spinning or sliding off the riser and allows superior tightening of the terminal nut.

#065--161 Anti Spin Gasket

Model T-3 Terminal configurations:

The Model T-3 can come in many standard and custom configurations. For example, nickel-plated brass Bonding Straps are available. For more information on Model T-3 Terminal configurations.

#142-009 Bonding Strap US
#164-048 Terminal T-3
#107-005 Large T-3 Nut

T-3 Flange Adapters:

The T-3 Flange Adapter allows for easy placement of T-3 Test Stations to pipe flanges, walls, wooden posts, and other areas where the installation of riser pipe is inconvenient.
