InteCAT

Low Voltage Tester

 

Overview

 

Smart and Scalable Low Voltage Testing

The HK InteCAT LV System is a versatile and efficient solution designed for comprehensive low-
voltage testing in harnesses. Its modular design allows flexible test point distribution while maintaining outstanding precision, reliability, and speed. Based on EtherCAT communication, it ensures seamless integration into existing systems, no IP configuration, no flat cables, just plug and test.
 

Key Features
  • flexible architecture: modular test cards can be placed meters apart, optimizing test coverage
    wherever needed
  • high-speed EtherCAT communication: no need for IP addresses, simple daisy-chain connection
    for synchronized measurements
  • parallel data acquisition: all boards perform simultaneous, cycle-by-cycle measurements for
    real-time accuracy
  • comprehensive Diagnostics: automatic calibration, self-diagnostics, and LED event indicators for
    quick troubleshooting
  • Plug-and-Play Integration: Works seamlessly with any other InteCAT module (I/O, HV, TM, etc.)
