Guide for IT companies testing and tagging equipment – where to start?
It you are in the IT department, or an IT company looking at performing your own testing and tagging, starting with the right system or asking the right questions to begin with is important.
If you need a full auditable setup with all the IT features, complete with scanner and printing setup, then you should take a look at the iPAT 2 SupaPAT. Designed to have the most advanced features including different printable tag options with QR code functionality to be used with a scanner.
This full setup also allows for unique Printing options with continuous labels, that allow you with one continuous roll of labels to print 4 different timeframes; 3 months, 12 months, 24 months and 5-yearly. Continuous rolls also mean you get more bang for your buck and less wastage.
If you are doing a lot of IT equipment, then having a cloverleaf adapter is going to be a must as far as accessories go. Designed for those power supplies at those laptop stations which need to be tested, but you don’t have the right adapter. That’s where the cloveleaf adapter comes in. What’s great about using the cloverleaf adapter with the iPAT 2 is that it can have a custom-built test code to use for cloverleaf IEC leads on those power supplies, speeding up testing!
Once you have completed testing having the right software will go a long way to ensuring you keep accurate records and can create a truly auditable system. SimplyPATs is the leading standard when it comes to PAT software that allows for a full solution after testing, something often not thought about enough when testing.
Not sure if this setup would be right for you? Why not rent a PAT tester to see if it is the right solution for you. Metrotest offers several PAT rental services which means you can try before making the leap to purchase your own PAT.
