AnaTek Blue Ring High-Q Component Tester - Fully Assembled

Description

The successor to the famous Bob Parker FBT/LOPT kit and companion to the
Blue ESR meter kit
. This Ring Tester
, built 100% in the USA
,
is fully assembled an inexpensive and effective way to test any high Q inductive component. It is especially useful for doing a quick check on flyback transformers, line output transformers and other inductive components like deflection yoke windings and SMPS transformers.
Full Anatek 1 year warranty on manufacturing defects.
A high Q factor is a characteristic of low loss inductive components. A shorted turn or coil will show no rings. A shorted FBT diode will show few or no rings. The Blue ring tester gives you a measure of the "Q" factor of a inductive component.
Features of the Blue Ring Tester :
Supplied fully assembled, calibrated and working!

The LEDs on the left side show the Q of the device being tested. Essentially, the m
ore LED's light up => higher Q of the device under test.
No lights = Short circuit
Red
= Bad or low Q
Yellow
= Medium Q
Green
= Good or High Q

I'll tell you why I DO feel lucky, and that's having purchased from someone who still understands the meaning of customer service! That goes a long way in my book (well, if I had a book)" - Tod
Works great and arrived on time. I use this with my Oscilloscope to show how ringing is produced in a coil and cap tank circuit and is useful for testing coils for shorts - Henry
Awesome! really works, diagnosed a bad coil in 3 alternators fields in 10 minutes - Ed
"Thank you very much for the Blue ESR and Blue RT kits. They worked out very well and I can honestly highly recommend your kits. I am very impressed with the quality of your kits and the detail that you provided to make the assembly absolutely painless" - George
