Product catalog summary
Overview
The document details the specifications and applications of the Model R1L-E2A, an intrinsically safe microohmmeter/bond tester designed for use in potentially explosive environments. It is suitable for measuring low resistance values from 100 µΩ to 20 Ω.

Key Features
  • Intrinsically safe design to prevent ignition in flammable environments.
  • Applications include aircraft bond measurements, natural gas pipe grounds, pharmaceutical equipment grounds, and petrochemical facilities.
  • Durable, waterproof case for protection and storage of probes.
  • Selected as the standard bond meter for the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter.

Specifications
  • Five measurement ranges from 2 mΩ to 20 Ω with an accuracy of 0.1% of reading ± 2 counts.
  • Operating temperature range from -20°C to 50°C.
  • Long battery life of approximately 80 hours on a full charge.
  • Certifications include ATEX Ex ia IIA T4 Ga and C-UL-US Listed Class I Div. 1, Group D.

Probes
  • HTP-101A Probes: Wired with 8 ft of #12 AWG cable, featuring stainless steel spring-loaded pins for penetrating corrosion and coatings.
  • SKP-8 Probes: Smaller probes for confined spaces, with 8 ft cable and color-coded spade lugs.
  • Both probe types are part of the intrinsically safe system, designed to prevent static electricity build-up.

VOLTAGE AND RESISTANCE PRODUCTS r \ • Meets the Latest and Widest International Standards • ATEX Ex ia IIA T4 Ga • C-UL-US Listed Class I Div. 1, Group D • Safely Measure Ground Bonds in the Presence of: • Alcohols • Diesel Fuel • Gasoline • Natural Gas • Aviation Fuels • Heating Oil • Kerosene • Propane • Portable: Long Battery Life (80 Hrs of typical use on a full charge) • Five Ranges: 2 mQ to 20 Q • Accuracy: 0.1% of reading ± 2 counts • Wide Operating Temperature Range: -20 ° C to 50 ° C • Simple Operation • Back Lit Display • NSN: 6625-01-527-5543 V_) Intrinsically Safe Intrinsic safety means the instrument is specifically designed and tested to prevent the release of energy that could ignite flammable liquids or gases in the work area. The Model R1L-E2A is an intrinsically safe, portable microohmmeter/bond tester for measuring low values of resistance (from 100 |jQ to 20 Q) in these potentially explosive atmospheres. Applications include: • Aircraft bond measurements for all phases of aircraft manufacturing and flight line maintenance in the presence of JP4 and aviation gasoline. • Verifying natural gas pipe grounds and bonds. • Checking pharmaceutical equipment grounds and storage facilities in the presence of alcohol. • Inspecting lighting arrestors in petrochemical production and distribution facilities. Predictable Results The R1L-E2A combines accurate measurement, simple operation and durable construction to provide consistent, predictable results under a challenging range of conditions. It is designed to accurately measure microohms throughout the widest operating temperature range of any commercially available bond meter. A rugged and waterproof case contains and protects the R1L-E2A when being transported to and from the work site. The case doubles as a storage area for the probes that are included as standard equipment with every instrument and an integral part of the intrinsic safety system. Is it Right for You? The R1L-E2A was selected as the standard bond meter for the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter after a competitive test. It goes into service with each squadron of F-35's anywhere in the world under all conditions. The combination of intrinsic safety and durability should qualify it for your bond measurements as well. If your requirements aren't quite that demanding, TEGAM manufactures a complete line of rugged and portable bond meters for your unique measurement challenge. You may see the complete line at www.tegam.com or www.microohmmeters.com. Prices and specifications subject to change without notice.
