Key features

  • Insulation resistance up to 10 TΩ at 5 kV, ±5% accuracy up to 1 TΩ
  • Test modes IR, timed IR, DAR and PI
  • Patented PI predictor function (PIp): predicts the 10-minute PI, starting as early as 3 minutes into the test; cuts PI test time by up to 50%
  • RE>Act mode shows when insulation is ready to retest, avoiding errors from residual reabsorption current, and monitors discharge to avoid dangerous return voltages
  • 3 mA noise immunity for typical industrial or distribution-level sites up to 45 kV
  • Fixed 3 mA burn / charge current
  • High-performance guard terminal
  • Custom colour display, two rotary switches, quick start guide in the lid
  • Five levels of voltage warning; live circuit detection and locking terminals
  • Dual-case design: tough outer case and fire retardant inner case; IP65 with the lid closed
  • Operates from battery or AC mains; 30-minute quick charge gives 1 hour of testing at 5 kV
  • No onboard storage
  • Safety rated CAT IV 600 V to 3000 m
