More about the Apollo 500+
The Apollo 500+ is a great value PAT tester with a comprehensive range of tests, advanced data transfer and storage features. It also has a built-in electrical risk assessment tool to suggest inspection and test frequencies.
Designed to enable simple, professional and fast PAT testing, with remote data transfer, upload/download and a large memory to store up to 10,000 test records. Great for high volume testing, or if you are retesting a large number of appliances on a regular basis.
For faster and more efficient retesting, the Apollo 500+ can be used with Seaward’s PATGuard 3 software to upload equipment details from your existing database, saving time on data entry in the field.
Printing Seaward QR barcodes, using the Test n Tag Elite 2 printer, enables you to store equipment details on the label, making retesting faster even if data has not been uploaded to the tester.
