In detail:
The IR5051-90 is a portable high-voltage insulation tester consisting of the IR5051
instrument and the Z3210 Bluetooth adapter. It combines standard insulation measurement
functions with a dedicated PV testing mode, enabling insulation resistance testing of
photovoltaic systems even during active power generation. The instrument offers five test
voltage ranges from 250 V to 5 kV and seven resistance ranges from 10 MΩ to 10 TΩ.
Bluetooth connectivity allows direct data transfer to smartphones or tablets for fast and
efficient documentation. What sets the IR5051 apart is its physically separate measurement section dedicated to
photovoltaic (PV) insulation testing. This specialized section allows insulation resistance
measurements on PV systems with test voltages up to 2000 V and insulation resistance ranges up to 100 GΩ. The best part: there is no need to wait until nightfall or interrupt power
generation, as the IR5051 can perform PV insulation resistance measurements during
daytime and while power is being generated – and it can do it in just 4 seconds. Imagine the
time savings when measuring hundreds of inspection points on a larger PV system.
The IR5051’s compact, lightweight design makes it an ideal tool for on-site use. The included
hard case ensures suitability for IP65 environments, providing protection against dust and
water. With a 2000 V CAT III safety rating, it guarantees safe measurements for PV systems
classified under CAT III. An automatic discharge function adds extra safety by discharging
residual charge after measurements, while shielded cables and a built-in guard circuit
minimize noise influence for stable, reliable results.
While insulation resistance values offer a quick assessment, they are not sufficient on their
own to evaluate long-term issues such as aging, moisture intrusion, or contamination.
Resistance values also fluctuate with temperature and humidity, making a single
measurement unreliable for diagnosing insulation degradation over time. To address this, the
IR5051 provides additional measurement modes: Polarization Index (PI), Dielectric
Absorption Ratio (DAR), and Dielectric Discharge (DD). These functions offer a more
comprehensive picture of insulation condition.
PI evaluates insulation resistance over time to identify signs of aging and surface
contamination. DAR offers a faster alternative for detecting the effects of moisture and
contamination. DD analyzes the discharge behavior of accumulated charges to uncover
degradation deep within the insulation. Together, these functions support a more accurate
assessment of insulation health, helping to increase equipment reliability and reduce the risk
of failure.
The IR5051-90 is a set that includes the Z3210 Bluetooth adapter. Bluetooth connectivity
enables measurement data to be transferred wirelessly to a PC or tablet, simplifying data
storage and analysis while improving overall workflow efficiency.
