Description

The TENTECH MD5060x is a smart, microprocessor-controlled, 5 kV insulation tester. Besides the conventional measurement of insulation resistances up to 5 TΩ, its features allow to automatically measure both the polarization index and dielectric absorption index, thus significantly simplifying testing of transformers.

This insulation tester is a portable, battery-powered equipment. Test voltage may be chosen from 500 V up to 5 kV in 100 V increments. Due to its measurement principle (actual voltage and current readings) the accuracy of resistance measurement is not affected by any test voltage error. Nevertheless, the high-voltage generator is electronically stabilized with a better than 2 % accuracy in open-circuit condition and for any normal operation battery voltage.

The built-in chronometer automatically counts the elapsed time since the start of measurement. Measured values are transmitted through the USB interface and are printed in the built-in printer as a registration of the performed test. Furthermore, the measured values are stored in a non-volatile internal memory. Up to 4000 measured values may be stored to be transferred afterward to a computer running the T-Logger program. This software allows a further analysis of the test results, including a graphical representation and automatic report generation. The real time clock and calendar, and the sequential test number facilitates the identification of each test and the organization of a predictive maintenance system by trend analysis.

Some other advanced features are useful to run the most sophisticated insulation analysis. Step voltage test, configurable pass / fail test and timed measurements are automatically performed, with a very simple and user-friendly setup. The measurement parameters are stored in the non-volatile memory for an easy configuration.

In order to guarantee the operator safety, the cabinet is made of a high breakdown strength plastic. High security output terminals are placed in the furthest and most protected area of the equipment. A light indicator shows high-voltage presence and is switched-off when the capacities (both internal and external) are discharged up to reaching a safe value.

The MD5060x is powered by a rechargeable LFP battery and has an automatic charger that may be connected to 100 - 240 V mains supply (AC Adapter). The cabinet is strong and lightweight, easy to carry, impact-resistant and suitable to be used under severe weather conditions. Thus the megohmmeter supplies very reliable and accurate measurements both in laboratory and out in the field.
