A-ISOMETER IRDH275

Insulation monitoring device for grounded AC, AC/DC and DC power supplies Floating Systems)

Product description The IRDH275-series A-ISOMETER monitors the insulation resistance of grounded AC, AC/DC 0 . . . 793 V and DC 0 . . . 650 V power circuits (Floating systems). Due to the AMPPLUS-measuring principle the devices are particularly suitable for modern power supply systems frequently containing converters, power converters, thyristor controls and directly connected DC components. Due to interference suppression methods (EMC), high leakage capacitances often exist in these systems. The IRDH275 adapts itself automatically to the respective system conditions and optimizes the measuring time. The voltage range can be expanded with coupling devices. A separate supply voltage enables monitoring of the system in the de-energized state. For installation in distribution box doors, see type IRDH375(B). Applications
IRDH275

Functions If the insulation resistance between the conductors and ground falls below the set response values, the alarm relays are switched and the alarm LEDs light up.Through the use of separately adjustable alarm relays it is possible to make a distinction between a Prewarning and a main warning. The measured value is shown on the LC display or on an externally connected measuring instrument. This makes it easy to detect changes, such as when load circuits are cut in. The fault message can be stored. To clear the fault memory, press the RESET button. The TEST button can be used to verify the functions of the unit, including the connections to the mains and to ground. By pressing the INFO button, important information, such as the system leakage capacitance and device settings, will be displayed.The functions of the unit and connections to the mains and to ground are monitored continuously. If a fault occurs, the system fault relay is switched and the System error alarm LED lights up. The device parameters are set by using the control buttons on the front of the unit and the LC display. IRDH275B version The IRDH275B version includes the following additional functions: memory to store all alarm messages with date and time stamp electrically isolated RS485 interface (BMS protocol) for exchange of data with other Bender components Isometer disconnecting relay for the operation of multiple A-ISOMETERs in coupled Floating systems current output 0(4) . . . 20 mA (electrically isolated)

Use in coupled Floating systems Due to the Isometer disconnecting relay included in the IRDH275B version and the F1/F2 control inputs, this unit can also be used in coupled Floating systems. It is thus ensured that only one A-ISOMETER is actively measuring at any given time. Measuring principle

AMPPlus
Standards

The IRDH275(B) series uses the patented AMPPlus measuring principle. This ensures exact monitoring of modern power supply systems, even with extensive, directly connected DC components and high system leakage capacitances.

The IRDH275(B) series conforms to the following equipment standards: DIN EN 61557-8 (VDE 0413 part 8): 1998-05, EN 61557-8: 1997-03, IEC 61557-8: 1997-02, ASTM F1669M 1996-00
