These instruments are available with moving coil, 90º and 240º pivot and jewel movements, moving iron 90º sapphire jewels, bearings and carbon steel pivots. A miniature instrument is available with 230º movement.

Manufactured for AC and DC applications, for heavier duties the range is supported by a full selection of current transformers and shunts.

Type tested and approved to defence standards DEF 66-7 and DEF 66-9, these instruments are subject to stringent test and inspection procedures. These tests relate to temperature, sealing, insulation, overload, resistance, fogging, acceleration and all requirements of the standard (full details available on request).

With our knowledge and experience in this field we are also able to respond to special requirements and have demonstrated this on many occasions. If required we offer a "one-off" service, useful for prototype development, these products are designed and developed to the same exacting standard that is applied to all our product.
