The KST-III Intelligent Dew Point Tester is a portable high-precision moisture analyzer designed for measuring trace water vapor content in SF₆ gas insulated electrical equipment. The instrument is widely used in GIS substations, circuit breakers, transformers, gas-insulated transmission lines (GIL), and other high-voltage equipment during commissioning, maintenance, and routine inspections.
Featuring advanced dew point sensing technology, the KST-III delivers rapid and reliable moisture measurements with minimal gas consumption. Its compact design, large-capacity data storage, rechargeable lithium battery, and user-friendly interface make it an ideal solution for field engineers and utility maintenance teams.

KSTONE specializes in the development and manufacturing of SF₆ gas testing and handling equipment for the power transmission and distribution industry.
The KST-III measures moisture content in SF₆ gas and displays results in both dew point temperature and ppm values.
Excessive moisture can reduce insulation performance and accelerate equipment aging. Regular dew point testing helps maintain safe and reliable operation.
The instrument typically completes a measurement within 3 minutes under standard conditions.
The KST-III consumes only about 2 liters of gas per test, minimizing SF₆ gas loss.
Yes. The tester can store up to 500 measurement records for future reference and reporting.
Yes. Its lightweight design, rechargeable battery, and rugged construction make it ideal for on-site GIS maintenance and commissioning.
Yes. The RS232 communication interface allows connection to compatible serial printers for report generation.
Absolutely. The KST-III is widely used during GIS installation, commissioning, maintenance, and periodic inspections.
