Mechanical test adapters

• Mechanical or pneumatic adapter system with interchangeable contact pin or test item carrier plate.
  
• Alternatively available with hold-down plate or hold-down bars.
  
• An alternative to one-way adapters, whereby the price/benefit ratio and design meet today's requirements.
  
• Naturally, we also supply processing for specific test items if required.

• Base frame with lifting mechanism and positive locking as well as pivoting hold-down system for holding interchangeable plates.
  
• Combined contact pin and test item carrier plate with leading, spring-mounted catch and support pins and internal transfer interface.
  
• Parallel acting contact stroke with optimum pull-down system by means of 4 guide columns.
  
• Positively locked hold-down system in connected state.
  
• Pivoting adapter frame for debugging on test system.

Test technology
Standard test adapter in ESD design

These adapters are used primarily for components which could be destroyed by electrostatic discharge.
The basic design of these types of adapter corresponds to that of the mechanical and pneumatic adapter model series m3522 and p3522.
