Application
This insulation resistance meter is a device with a wide range of applications. It may be successfully operated both in residential construction industry and for inspecting industrial systems or traction networks. Due to its characteristics – excellent performance, low power consumption from batteries, the option of charging during measurements, convenience of use and a high ingress protection level – it is often used by electricians working in maintenance teams, testing motors, cables, street lighting or at the construction and maintenance of photovoltaic systems. The device perfectly matches the needs of installers of telecommunications networks and operators of district heating networks, where the inspection of alarm system on insulated pipes is necessary.
Features
The meter may be used to measure the insulation resistance using test voltage up to 2500 V. When testing cables, it automatically discharges their load at the moment of completing the measurement. Together with the PRZ-2 (kit for measuring resistance in zones with ESD protection), it is a comprehensive tool for technicians dealing with the protection of plants against static electricity.
The device allows safety control of residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations. Measurements can be easily automated with AutoISO-2511 adapter for automatic insulation resistance test of 3-, 4- and 5-conductor cables, without switching.
MIC-2511 allows user to measure the continuity of protective conductors and equipotential bondings with current exceeding 200 mA in both directions. The meter has a built-in voltmeter of AC and DC voltages in the range of up to 1500 V.
Extensive memory allows the device to record and send to a computer nearly 10,000 measurement results.
Built-in help system
The device has built-in help screens with measurement diagrams. Thanks to this you can easily and quickly check and make sure how to connect to a given system depending on the type of performed measurement.
Communication and software
You can easily transfer measurement data to your computer via USB port. In order to generate a report on measurements for electric shock protection, use Sonel Reports PLUS software. Saving the downloaded data to the simplest formats and printing is provided by free Sonel Reader software.
