Gossen Metrawatt M550R – Analog Test Instrument for Insulation

• Analog display of measured values and limit values
• Intelligent filter
• Signaling of dangerous contact voltage by means of LED
• Electronic fuse for protection of the low-resistance measurement RLO also protects the fuse link in the low-resistance measuring range in the event of faulty operation

The METRISO G1000A insulation and resistance measuring instruments allow for quick and effective testing of protective measures in accordance with:

• DIN VDE 0100
• ÖVE-EN 1 (Austria)
• SEV 1000 (Switzerland)
• and regulations specific to other countries as well
• Insulation measurement per EN 61557-2 / VDE 0413 part 2
• Low-resistance measurement per EN 61557-4 / VDE 0413 part 4
• Voltage testing and measurement up to 1000 V

Measurements analog

• Measuring ranges Riso 10K to 1TΩ

Applications

• The insulation measuring instruments are suitable for the following tasks:
• Measurement of insulation resistance at voltage-free devices and systems, up to 1000 V
• Checking of test objects for the absence of voltage in systems with up to 1 KV
• Testing of the resistance of earthing conductors, protective conductors and equipotential bonding
• Testing of electrostatic discharge capacity at floor coverings (using shielded measurement cables) – EN 1081
• With the help of the so-called 1 mA test per DIN VDE 0845/ EN 61645, testing for the triggering of performance category B and C / SPD type 2 and 3 surge protection devices (varistors, reference diodes etc.) can be executed with this measuring instrument, on-site as well, and evaluated in accordance with the manufacturer’s data.

Discharging Capacitive Devices Under Test

Capacitive devices under test such as cables and coils, which may be charged with test voltage, are discharged by the measuring instrument. The falling voltage value can be observed at the display.
