  1. The new high noise immunity range S1-554 and S1-1054 5 and 10kV diagnostic insulation testers The latest addition to the all new MIT and S1 range of instruments

  2. S1-554 & S1-1054 Diagnostic Instruments Unique High Noise Rejection

  3. What’s in a name? • S1-554 • 5kV max test voltage (DC) • 5mA test current output • 4mA Noise rejection • S1-1054 • 10kV max test voltage (DC) • 5mA test current output • 4mA Noise rejection

  4. Designed for the harshest conditions • High noise immunity • High test current • High accuracy • High measurement range • High voltage option • High guard terminal performance • High impact resistant case • IP65 sealed case • Mains or battery operation • Lid mounted test lead bag So what does that really mean to you?

  5. High Noise Immunity • Noise? • Induced current from adjacent powered up equipment • Causes variation in readings • In high noise locations measurement often impossible • The solution? • S1-554 and S1-1054 incorporates latest filter techniques • Both Hardware and Firmware filtering • Hardware for fast moving variations • Firmware filtering for slower variations • User selectable Firmware time constants (10, 30 & 100 seconds)

  6. High Noise Immunity? • EMC issue • Noise immunity needs to take into account all issues not just current induced into the test piece • Other EMC phenomena such as RF susceptibility, transients, etc. can effect measurements too • Hence full compliance to EN61326-1:1998 for use in heavy industrial environments

  7. High Test Current? • S1-554 and S1-1054 equipped with market leading 5mA output • Why? • To charge capacitance on long cables quickly – saving valuable time • Capacitor charge time: < 3seconds per µF at 5mA • High output means higher voltage applied to lower insulation values showing it’s true condition

  10. High Accuracy? • S1-554 and S1-1054 give accurate and repeatable results • Typically ±5% • Why? • Meaningful diagnostic insulation testing totally relies upon trending results • Inaccurate reading mean inaccurate trending

  11. High Measurement range? • S1-554 and S1-1054 have market leading measurement ranges • S1-554 = 15T • S1-1054 = 35T • Why? • You cannot analyse or trend infinity readings Start of insulation degradation Readings taken at >1T 500G range limit Could be months Time (months) Degradation noticed much later with 500G range

  12. High Voltage Option? • S1-1054 has up to 10kV output • Industry standard is 5kV • Why? • Higher test voltage produces higher current though insulation hence higher test range • IEEE43-2000 “Recommended practice for testing insulation resistance of rotating machines” recommends testing >12kV rated winding with up to 10kV • Future proofs instrument against future developments in insulation technology • 10kV remains at a none destructive level, the aim is for enough current to flow to be able to analyse it’s condition not to stress it

  13. High guard terminal performance? • The S1-554 and S1-1054 gives only 2% error when guarding 500k leakage across a 100M load • The guard terminal removes the effect of surface leakage due to dirt and moisture • Surface leakage gives a lower result than normal • Why? • Poor guard terminal performance means readings taken after removing the effects if surface leakage will be incorrect, resulting in incorrect analysis of insulation condition

  14. High quality Case? • The S1-554 and S1-1054 is built to take the knocks and is IP65 rated with lid closed • Why? • These instrument can have a hard life, thrown into vans, used outside, accidentally dropped etc. • Instruments need to be built for the job to prevent unwelcome time in the repair workshop • You rely on your instrument to be ready when you need it

  15. Mains or battery operation? • The S1-554 and S1-1054 can operate from both rechargeable battery or a mains supply • Mains voltage range 85V – 260V, 50/60Hz • Battery life – 6 hours continuous testing at 5kV, 4 hrs at 10kV • Why? • Extremely high battery life is only any good if you remember to charge it • Saves time waiting to charge when long term testing is required

  16. Lid mounted test lead bag? • Ever gone to perform some testing only to find the test leads are missing? • Some sub-standard products use separate lead bags

  17. Other important features • Capacitance measurement • Voltage at terminals measurement • On display during test • Automatic Tests • Polarisation Index (PI) • Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR) • Step Voltage • Dielectric Discharge (DD) • Timer range: Up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds • T1, T2 and main timer T • Allows you to define two measurement times and an overall duration for the test.

  18. Other important features • Large analogue and digital backlit display • Analogue to show variation • Digital to give precise value • Data stored in memory: Voltage, test time, leakage current, resistance, PI, DAR, DD, capacitance and time constant • 32k = 56 tests each of 45min duration • Real time output: Serial, once a second, voltage, current and resistance • Interface: RS232 (9 pin connector) and USB
