Applications
ERICO® Inc.
along with LEM Instruments Inc. are pleased to offer a complete
range of Ground / Earth Resistance Testers to meet the
requirements of every user. The units are lightweight and
portable for ease of use in the field. Their robust design and
splash-proof construction help them withstand extreme
conditions. The units' large LCD display shows required test
connections and features a complete automatic test sequence for
selected operations.
Three units are offered in the range. No matter what the
application, there is sure to be an Earth Tester suited to fit
your many diverse ground/earth measuring needs.
