Chauvin Arnoux CA6526 1kV Insulation And Continuity Tester

Description

The Chauvin Arnoux C.A 6526 (P01140826) is an insulation and continuity tester designed for electrical maintenance in industrial settings. The compact device features multiple test voltages for insulation and includes additional functions like Polarization Index (PI) and Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR) calculations, as well as digital multimeter (DMM) capabilities.

Key Features

• Insulation testing: Offers five fixed test voltages: 50 V, 100 V, 250 V, 500 V, and 1 kV, with a measurement range up to 200 GΩ. It includes various insulation test modes, such as manual, lock, and timer-controlled duration testing.
• Insulation quality analysis: Automatically calculates Polarization Index (PI) and Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR) to help assess the quality of insulation and detect aging.
• Continuity testing: Features a low-resistance continuity test with a test current of 200 mA, which complies with the IEC 61557 standard. An additional 20 mA range is available to help prolong battery life.
• Additional functions: Includes DMM functions to measure voltage up to 700 V, frequency up to 800 Hz, resistance up to 999 kΩ, and capacitance up to 10 µF.
• Display: A backlit LCD screen displays dual 4,000-count readings along with a logarithmic bargraph, showing the measured value, actual test voltage, and test current simultaneously.
• Bluetooth communication: Allows for wireless data transfer to a PC for analysis and report generation using the included "Megohmmeter Transfer" software.
• Data storage: Stores up to 1,300 measurements in its internal memory.
• Robust design: Built with an IP54-rated, compact casing that is resistant to dust and splashing water. It also features a magnetic stand for hands-free use.
• Safety features: Rated 600 V CAT IV, meeting the IEC 61010-1 electrical safety standard. A green/red LED provides a clear Pass/Fail indication for testing.
• Ergonomics: Designed to be comfortable to hold, even with safety gloves, with an easily accessible test button and a remote-control probe with a built-in torch for working in poorly lit areas.
