Product description

The insulation monitor LK 5895 of the VARIMETER IMD family is a solution for optimal insulation monitoring of modern IT systems. The device can be used in the most flexible way for AC, DC and AC/DC systems even with large leakage capacity to earth (PE). The adjustment of the setting values is simple and user friendly done on 2 rotary switches on the front of the device. Via LEDs the measured value, device parameters and device status are indicated easy to read.

Advantages

  • Preventive fire and system protection
  • Quick fault localisation through selective earth fault detection to L+ and L-
  • Universal application in non-earthed AC, DC, AC/DC networks
    with up to 1000 V nominal voltage
  • Suitable for large leakage capacitances up to 3000 μF
  • Simplest setting via engaging rotary switches
  • For monitoring photovoltaic system, also with thin-film technology
  • Optimised measuring times – normally shorter than with known methods
  • Monitoring also with voltage-free mains
  • Measuring circuit with broken wire detection
  • No additional coupling device required

Features

  • Insulation monitoring according to IEC/EN 61557-8
  • Detection of symmetric and asymmetric insulation faults
  • Measuring circuits can be disconnected via control terminals, e.g. for mains couplings
  • 1 changeover contact each for prewarning and alarm
  • Prewarning threshold setting range: 20 kΩ ... 2 MΩ
  • Alarm threshold setting range: 1 kΩ ... 250 kΩ
  • Energized or de-energized on trip can be selected for output relay
  • Setting the maximum leakage capacitance to shorten the response time
  • Simple, clearly arranged adjustment of the device with screwdriver
  • LED chain to indicate the current insulation resistance
  • Display of active measuring circuits
  • Automatic and manual device self-test
  • Alarm storage selectable
  • External test and reset pushbutton can be connected
  • Width 90 mm
