The Dielectric Strength Holder is used to test the dielectric strength of thin sheets of insulating materials. The sample material is placed between two electrodes and a high voltage is applied to the electrodes. Note: A high voltage generator is needed for the test, see 6500- series Technical Specification Model 6580 • According to IEC 60065 Clause 10.4.2 Fig 6 (Clause 10.3.2 in previous edition of standard) • Two 5 mm electrodes, cylindrical with flat ends • Weight of moveable top electrode: 100 g • Insulated frame to avoid risk of hazard. Top weight insulated from electrode • 4 mm banana-plug connectors (safety type) for connection of high voltage • Intended for thin sheets of insulating material, but can handle up to approximay 12 mm thick samples Model 6585 • According to IEC 60598 Clause 10.2 • Two 20 mm ball shaped electrodes • Weight of moveable top electrode: 2 N • Insulated frame to avoid risk of hazard. Top weight insulated from electrode • 4 mm banana-plug connectors (safety type) for connection of high voltage • Intended for thin sheets of insulating material, but can handle up to approximay 10 mm thick samples
