Test-Tel has been designed to ensure correct disc installation, as well as proper fitting of Flo-Tel+, the industry’s leading ATEX-approved detection system.
Test-Tel is a low-cost portable tool that can eliminate the risk of poorly fitted rupture discs or wrongly wired detection. With a range of test options, including disc status check, detection check and battery check, Test-Tel is a pioneering solution in the rupture disc industry.
