2000 V solar power system compatible
Measure insulation resistance while the solar PV system continues to generate
The CAT III 2000 V and CAT IV 1000 V rated IR5051 can measure insulation resistance and open-circuit voltage in solar power systems up to 2000 V safely.
The IR5051 has a PV insulation resistance measurement function. It features the ability to measure even while PV systems are generating power. This means you don’t have to wait until night for measurement or stop power generation.
Identify ground faults in solar power systems using our free app, GENNECT Cross
The CAT III 2000 V and CAT IV 1000 V rated IR5051 can measure insulation resistance and open-circuit voltage in solar power systems up to 2000 V safely.
- Use the IR5051's dedicated PV insulation function to measure the insulation resistance of solar strings during operation and detect faulty strings.
- Measure the voltage at the disconnect switch and send it to GENNECT Cross; the software will locate the panel with the ground fault. This IR5051 is capable of safely and accurately measuring voltages up to 2,000 V DC.
Accurate, easy-to-use insulation resistance meter
Intuitive and precise high-voltage insulation testing
Easy-to-use insulation resistance meter with intuitive rotary knob operation.
- Selectable output voltage with 5 range settings for insulation resistance testing.
- Adjust the output voltage between 250 V and 5 kV in increments of 10 V or 25 V to accommodate specific testing needs.
- Automatic AC/DC detection for seamless voltage measurement.
Precision stability in high voltage insulation testing
When the test object has very high resistance, the insulation resistance meter measures minute currents. Because such measurements are sensitive to even minor changes in the environment, the readings can become unstable. The IR5051 reduces environmental influences using shielded wires, and its unique measurement technology enables stable measurements up to 10 TΩ.
Advanced diagnostics and calculations in insulation testing
Tailored measurement methods with advanced insulation diagnostic functions
When a high test voltage is continuously applied to the circuit under test, the insulation may break down. Failures caused by the application of a high voltage can be prevented by keeping the applied voltage as low as possible while testing the insulation.
The IR5051 is equipped with various insulation diagnostic functions, allowing you to choose the optimal measurement method according to the testing application.
Automatically calculated and displayed insulation diagnostics
After measurement completes, the instrument can display more than just the insulation resistance and leakage current, but also judgement index values of PI, DD, and DAR. It calculates these indexes based on the measured values and displays it as a pass/fail judgment.
Safety engineered
High-Safety design insulation resistance meter
CAT III, CAT IV rated IR5051 hold the highest standards in safety performance. You may think that insulation resistance measurement is not dangerous because it is performed under power outage conditions, but on the contrary, accidents can be dangerous. The IR5051 have enhanced safety performance in case of such an accident.
Start test: Press and hold for 1 sec. to start measurement. This feature helps prevent inadvertent activation of a high voltage.
To encourage caution, the MEASURE button flashes when a high voltage is being generated or discharged.
Complete: The IR5051 will start discharging automatically as soon as the test is over. During this time, the test start button will flash red to indicate that it is discharging.
