Product description

The insulation monitor RN 5897/010 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 display and LEDs the measured value, device parameters and device status are indicated easy to read. With a sealable transparent cover the device is protectet against manipulation.

Advantages

  • Preventive fire and system protection
  • Detection of symmetric and asymmetric insulation faults
  • Quick fault localisation through selective earth fault detection to L+ and L-
  • Universal application in non-earthed AC, DC, AC/DC networks up to AC max. 250 V or DC max. 300 V
  • With connection facility of an external coupling device:
    RL 5898 for voltages up to AC 400 V / DC 500 V
    RP 5898 for voltages up to AC 690 V / DC 1000 V
    RR 5898*) for voltages up to AC 1000 V / DC 1500 V
  • Easy adjustment of response values and setting parameter via rotational switch and menu display
  • Suitable for large leakage capacitances up to 1000 μF
  • Optimised reaction time for large leakage capacitances
  • Monitoring also with voltage-free mains
  • Measuring circuit L(+)/L(-) with broken wire detection (can be switched off)
  • Protective conductor PE1/PE2 with broken wire detection (can't be switched off)
