Megger’s new S1-Series of insulation resistance testers consist of a 5 kV model, S1-568 and a 10 kV model, S1-1068. These top end instruments are made for power utilities and service companies working in generation, transmission and distribution markets. Class leading charge current, noise rejection and software filters make the S1-Series Megger’s most advanced DC insulation resistance testers to date.
Instrument productivity is a focus of the new S1-Series which offers rapid charge batteries and operation from an AC source when the battery is flat. An intuitive user interface ensures no lost time remembering how to use the tester. Simplicity of operation is achieved with two rotary switches and a large backlight display which enables multiple results to be displayed simultaneously. A graphical quick start guide is provided inside the lid of each model to assist first time users.
Safety of operation is built in, 5 kV and 10 kV models are safety rated to CAT IV 600 V up to 3000 m. Original equipment manufacturers and repairers will welcome the remote control feature allowing them to automate resistance testing on the factory floor, as will technicians in substations wanting to operate from a more convenient, safe distance.
