With its site-proof casing, the C.A 6550 insulation tester is used to check equipment insulation during manufacturing, on-site installation work, periodic inspections and recommissioning of installations.

It is ideal for electricity companies, manufacturers, installers, maintenance firms, industry, R&D centres and infrastructure.

Specially adapted for checking insulation on rotating machinery with a 12 kV power supply or higher, the C.A 6550 complies with the IEEE43 standard which recommends insulation testing at 5-10kV.

Other features:

- Wide measurement range from 10 kohm to 25 Tohm

- Fixed or programmable test voltage from 40V to 10 kV

- 5mA max charging current

- Large backlit LCD screen with digital display, bargraph and R(t)+u(t), i(t) and i(u) graphs

- Automatic ratio calculation: DAR / PI / DD / DR (ppm/V)

- Multiple test modes: voltage ramp and step with "burning", "early break" and "I-limit" modes

- 3 filters to optimize measurement stability

- Calculation of R at a reference temperature

- 80,000-measurement storage capacity and real-time clock

- Optically-isolated USB communication for transfer onto PC and report generation with DataView® software
