Extech 380396 High Voltage Digital Insulation Tester (220 V)
The Extech 380396 High Voltage Digital Insulation Tester (220V) is a versatile and robust tool designed for professionals who require precise insulation resistance measurements in high-voltage applications. With selectable test voltages of 500V, 1000V, 2500V, and 5000V, it offers a maximum insulation resistance measurement capability of 60 GΩ. This tester is ideal for assessing the integrity of electrical insulation in various systems, including motors, transformers, cables, and switchgear.
Description
The Extech 380396 is engineered to provide accurate and reliable insulation resistance measurements in demanding environments. It features a large 6000-count LCD display with a bargraph and backlight, ensuring clear visibility of readings even in low-light conditions. The tester supports multiple test voltages—500V, 1000V, 2500V, and 5000V—to accommodate a wide range of applications.
In addition to insulation resistance measurements, the 380396 offers Polarization Index (PI) and Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR) testing, which are essential for evaluating the quality and aging of insulation over time. The device also measures AC/DC voltage up to 600V, providing versatility for various testing scenarios. Additional features include Min/Max, Peak, and Relative functions, a 1 to 15-minute timer for insulation resistance measurements, and an auto-discharge function to safely discharge test voltage after measurements.
The tester is powered by eight C batteries and can also be operated using the included 220V AC adapter. Its compact dimensions (7.8 x 5.8 x 3.4 inches) and lightweight design (approximately 3.2 lbs) make it portable and easy to handle. The 380396 comes complete with test leads, a heavy-duty carrying case, and a user manual, ensuring that users have all the necessary tools for efficient testing.
