Fluke 1550C FC 5 kV Insulation Tester Kit, with IR3000 FC Wireless Connector
Fluke 1550C FC 5 kV Insulation Tester Kit, with IR3000 FC Wireless Connector
Fluke 1550C FC 5 kV Insulation Tester Kit
Overview
The Fluke 1550C covers the full range of test voltages in IEEE 43-2000 and is built for testing high-voltage equipment including switchgear, motors, generators and cables. Remote operation through the IR3000 FC connector and Fluke Connect lets technicians start and stop tests from a safe distance away from energized equipment, with real-time trending shown on a smartphone instead of hard-to-read changing values.
This kit configuration adds the IR3000 FC connector with interface cable plus an IP67 hard carrying case and heavy-duty alligator clip leads. Measurements can be transferred wirelessly to Fluke Connect, reported with FlukeView Forms software, and the tester carries a three-year warranty with a CAT IV 600 V safety rating.
Features
- Test voltages selectable in 50 V steps from 250 V to 1000 V, and 100 V steps above 1000 V up to 5 kV
- Insulation resistance measurements to 2 TΩ with a 0 to 1 TΩ bar graph
- Automatic Dielectric Absorption (DAR) and Polarization Index (PI) calculation
- Guard system eliminates the effect of surface leakage current on high-resistance readings
- Capacitance and leakage current measurement with ramp function for breakdown testing
- Up to 99 memory locations with user-defined labels for easy recall
- Live circuit warning displays the voltage reading up to 600 V AC or DC
- CAT III 1000 V / CAT IV 600 V safety rating and 3-year warranty
Applications
- Preventive and predictive maintenance testing of motors, generators and switchgear
- Periodic insulation testing of cables per IEEE 43-2000
