Sheffield TA500 Multisystem Engine Analyzer

Description

The TA500's unique and proprietary technology allows the user to perform quick and reliable diagnostics of non-starts, misfires, fouled up or damaged spark plugs and/or spark plug wires, by comparing digital read-outs of the spark plug voltage and spark burn time between cylinders on engines using Coil on Plug, Coil near Plug, conventional distributor/ignition coil, DIS (Distributor-less) or waste spark and magneto technologies.
Simple to use, the TA500 requires no special adapters, cables or a scope and is equipped with a large digital display that shows spark plug voltage, spark burn time, RPM, as well as Min/Max readings in real time.
Multisystem ignition analyzer
Measures spark plug voltage from 0 to 50000 Volt
Measures spark burn time from 0 to 10 ms
Special antenna sensor allows quick testing of Coil on Plug and Coil near Plug modules, and easy hook-up to spark plug and ignition coil wires
No ground wire connections required, for fast troubleshooting
Multiple diagnostic applications are described in comprehensive User's Handbook (Included)
