Multifunction Flight Helmet Communication Tester
Tailored to customer requirements for full-spectrum testing, diagnostic isolation, and maintenance of aviation Helmet Communications Systems.
System & Component Testing: Checks wiring, mics, mic amplifiers, and earphones across mono and stereo helmets, as well as detached components.
Alarm System: Instant visual and audible alerts upon fault detection.
Distortion Diagnostics: Allows technicians to isolate signal distortion to either the headphone or microphone pathway.
SPL & VU Meter Integration: Built-in VU meter measures audio signal strength and evaluates microphone sensitivity in SPL mode for direct comparison.
Power Delivery: Supplies power to NV helmet mic lights.
Interchangeable Adapters: Compatible with U-174/U, U-75/U, U-384/U, and custom adapters for individual component bench tests.
These testers are customized to suit the needs of our costumers.
Detailed Features & Modes
Continuity Check Mode
Detects out-of-tolerance components as well as continuous or intermittent shorts and open circuits in microphone and earphone wiring—without needing to wear the helmet. Three memory LEDs capture and store fault types detected in each circuit while manipulating the cable assembly. An audible alarm can also be set to trigger upon fault detection.
Audio Check Mode:
Microphone Sensitivity: Measures microphone sensitivity in SPL-TEST mode.Microphone Fidelity: Amplifies mic output under normal speech conditions and routes the signal directly to the helmet earphones or front-panel speaker for acoustic verification.
Earphone Functionality: Tests earphones using either the helmet microphone or an internal 1Khz sine-wave generator.
Universal Power Supply: Powered via an external AC power adapter (90--240 VAC, 50/60Hz), available with US, UK, Australian, or EU plug configurations.
