BITE Indicators
Model MI 6ISA
Qualified to MIL-PRF-83287/1

Print information as a condensed 2 page document

The MI61SA (MIL-PRF-83287/1) series magnetic latching fault indicator displays highly visible dual color internal flag when the indicator coil is pulsed by a BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) system. The "cloverleaf" pattern provides a high contrast visual indication and an effective warning of system results.

Cleared by DOD/OFOISR for public release under 00-S-1235 dated April 17, 2000.

OPERATION
When the indicator coil is energized with a 40 millisecond (or longer) pulse, the highly visible display disc rotates and latches to the magnetic core. The display disc will remain magnetically latched to the core in the position last pulsed. Even if the fault signal is removed, the indicator will "remember" that a fault had occurred.

Reset to the "no-fault" position is accomplished mechanically by rotating the knurled knob clockwise to 60°. The knob automatically returns to its normal position.

Optional features include insulated lead wire or solder loop termination, non-glare lens, and RFI panel shield. Consult your representative or the factory for details.
