Features
Tailored measurement methods with advanced insulation diagnostic functions
When a high test voltage is continuously applied to the circuit under test, the insulation may break down. Failures caused by the application of a high voltage can be prevented by keeping the applied voltage as low as possible while testing the insulation. The IR5050 is equipped with various insulation diagnostic functions, allowing you to choose the optimal measurement method according to the testing application.
Automatically calculated and displayed insulation diagnostics
After measurement completes, the instrument can display more than just the insulation resistance and leakage current, but also judgement index values of PI, DD, and DAR. It calculates these indexes based on the measured values and displays it as a pass/fail judgment.
High-safety design insulation resistance meter
CAT III, CAT IV rated IR5050 hold the highest standards in safety performance. You may think that insulation resistance measurement is not dangerous because it is performed under power outage conditions, but on the contrary, accidents can be dangerous. The IR5050 have enhanced safety performance in case of such an accident.
Start test: Press and hold for 1 seconds to start measurement. This feature helps prevent inadvertent activation of a high voltage. To encourage caution, the MEASURE button flashes when a high voltage is being generated or discharged.
Complete: The IR5050 will start discharging automatically as soon as the test is over. During this time, the test start button will flash red to indicate that it is discharging.
Wireless (sold separately) and USB connectivity options for even greater convenience
