OVERVIEW
The QA-ST is designed to quickly check electrical
safety on medical and industrial devices. It is palm
sized and very portable. The tests can be performed
manually or in step by step mode. The results are
displayed in a bright 4-digit LCD display.
The QA-ST performs all electrical safety tests neces-
sary to satisfy AAMI ESI, NFPA-99, VDE 701 and
VDE 751. It also features differential current meas-
urements obtained by an internal current clamp. This
presents a new leakage current measurement
technique for convenient testing of medical equip-
ment.
The QA-ST is available in two versions:
1) US version which includes AAMI/ANSI ES1-
1985 test load.
2) European version which includes IEC 601.1 test
load.
