Impact Tester For Electrical Lab Training

Impact Tester - The ability of cable ducting and trunking systems for electrical installations to withstand impacts likely to be encountered during their working life is determined by dropping a guided weight from a pre-determined height over a cylindrical striker placed on the surface of the cable ducting and observing for signs of its failure under this impact. The Impact Tester for cable ducting and trunking systems consists of a guided cylindrical striker with its axis held along a vertical plane and a dropping weight which can be released from different pre-set heights to strike the top face of the striker. The striker, which rests on the surface of the cable ducting under test, is loosely guided by the lower end of a guide rod. The guide rod is firmly held inside a supporting block, which can be moved over two vertical rods for changing the dropping height.
