Table 1. CT-8000 S3 Technical Specifications
TYPE Portable circuit-breaker analyzer
PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS 16”W x 11”H x 14”D (40.6 cm x 29.9 cm x 35.6 cm); Weight: 22 lbs (9.98 kg)
INPUT POWER
100-240Vac, 10A, 50/60Hz
DRY-CONTACT INPUTS 3 channels (9103-UC) or 6 channels (9104-UC). Channel can detect the main contact and
resistor contact time.

TIMING RESOLUTIONS ±50 micro-seconds @ 1 sec. duration,
±500 micro-seconds @ 10 sec. duration,
±1.0 milliseconds @ 20 sec. duration
TIMING ACCURACY 0.05% of reading ±0.05 ms @ 1 second duration
DRY-CONTACT CHANNEL PROTECTION All contact inputs are grounded until test. Input channels are also protected against static
discharge.
DRY-CONTACT DETECTION RANGE Closed: Less than 20 Ohm.
Opened: greater than 5000 ohm
INSERTION RESISTOR DETECTION RANGE 50 – 5,000 ohms
TRIGGER INPUT VOLTAGE Open/Close trigger voltage: 24 V – 300V DC or peak AC
VOLTAGE SENSING INPUT RANGE V1: analog input; 0 – 250 V DC or peak AC; sensitivity ±1 V; record and print voltage level
V2 and V3: voltage presence/absence detector input; 24 – 255 V DC or peak AC; record and
print 3 timing events
BREAKER OPERATIONS
Initiate Open, Close, Open-Close, Close-Open, Open-Close-Open
