CableXChecker | Combo Connector

List Price: $1,475 Includes Shipping

The CableXChecker® is unique to the marketplace because each tester is customized to your specific wiring diagram standards.

Simply plug your cable into the mounted connectors and test each individual zone in both thermocouple and heater cables by using the dial on the instrument panel to rotate through each zone. Bright blue LEDs will light-up in the order of the wiring diagram. If a problem is detected, the LED will not light, indicating an open in the cable. If more than one LED illuminates, there is a short in the cable.
Test lead is also included to probe for pushed back pins and other problems in the connector insert.

Maintenance Routines

Check for open or miswired heater and thermocouple zones.
Check for shorts.
Rewire a connector.

Maintenance the "Old Way"

If doing it by yourself, you have to put the cable between your legs, put your meter in audible mode and precisely touch the matching pins for each zone -- and you have to know the wiring diagram! If a zone were miswired, you would have to touch every other pin in the connector to find which pin is miswired.
576 point-to-point test manually checking for continuity, between the zone-1 pin and any other pin that it is not supposed to be in circuit with zone-1 (depends on wiring diagram), if there is continuity then there is a short. Once zone-1 is verified, then you have to go to zone-2 and touch every other pin that is not supposed to be in circuit with it; then zone-3, zone-4, etc. You would have to know the wiring diagram.
To rewire a connector, once the controller side of the cable is wired, you would have to manually probe zone-1 pin and then every wire on the mold side until you find continuity. Then do that for every zone.

Now With CableXChecker®

Simply turn the dial through each zone’s hot and return position. If there is an open, the zone will not light up. If a zone is miswired the wrong zone will light up.
Simply turn the dial through each zone and the CableXChecker® will light up the extra zones where there is a short.
Use the probe to touch any wire on the mold side and the CableXChecker® will light up the zone it should be wired to.

Secure Strong Connections

Fast Heat's CableXChecker® Hot Runner Cable Testing System Ensures Proper Connectivity.

The CableXChecker® saves labor costs and production downtime by quickly diagnosing problem cables.

Early diagnosis is the best insurance against downtime.

Fast Heat's CableXChecker® Cable Testing System can quickly and easily detect connectivity problems.

Why the CableXChecker®?

Traditional cable testing methods are tedious and time-consuming.

Labor Intensive: A standard 24-pin cable requires a 576 point-to-point test to diagnose a problem -- and a 576 point-to-point retest after a repair.
Potential Operator Error: Test lead needs to be placed with surgical precision . Connector pin numbers are small and hard to read.

Fast Heat's CableXChecker® Ensures Proper Cable Diagnositics

Each CableXChecker® is custom built to match the cables used in your molding operation. In an instant, you can test your cables for continuity, miswired zones, and shorts. You can also:

Save Time: A single standard 24-pin cable can be tested in less than a minute.
Get Customized: The CableXChecker® is the only cable tester available that is specifically built to your wiring and connector standards -- and configured to test both heater and thermocouple cables.
Simplify Your Repair Process: Pushed-in pins and problem zones are quickly identified with the easy-to-use test lead. Then retest your connections during the repair process.
Get Mobile: Powered by a 9v battery and outfitted with a travel handle, the highly portable CableXChecker® can be anywhere you need it to be.
