Fluke 1550C/Kit Insulation Resistance Tester Kit

Description

The new Fluke 1550C/Kit insulation resistance tester offers digital insulation testing up to 10 kV, making it ideal for testing a wide range of high voltage equipment including switchgear, motors, generators and cables.

Fluke insulation testers can now conduct the entire range of test voltages specified in IEEE 43-2000 with a best in class, 3 year warranty and CAT IV 600 V safety rating. With measurement storage and PC interface, the 1550C/Kit is a perfect tool for preventative or predictive maintenance programs designed to identify potential equipment failures before they occur.

 

Features

  • Test voltages up to 5kV provides solutions for all applications
  • CAT III 1000 V, CAT IV 600 V safety rating
  • Voltage breakdown detection alerts the user that voltage is present and gives the voltage reading up to 600 V ac or dc for increased user safety
  • Selectable test voltages in 50 V steps from 250 to 1000 V, and 100 V steps above 1000 V
  • Measurements can be stored in up to 99 memory locations, with each location assigned a unique, user defined, label for easy recall
  • Long battery life gives the user over 750 tests between charges
  • Automatic calculation of Dielectric Absorption (DAR) and Polarization Index (PI) with no additional setup
  • Guard system eliminates the effect of surface leakage current on high-resistance measurements
  • Large digital/analog LCD for easy viewing
  • Capacitance and leakage current measurement
  • Ramp function for breakdown testing
  • Resistance measurements up to 2TΩ
  • Timer settings up to 99 minutes for timed tests
