Information on the calibration of newly purchased equipment and what it means to you.

Calibration and its certification comes in varying forms on new equipment and in this section, we will break it down into the three areas that we use to classify calibration state at the point of purchase.

Manufacturers Calibration Certificate

This is a calibration certificate offered by the manufacturer supplied with the tester. This is also known as an end-of-line certificate or manufacturer’s certificate. These certificates vary depending on the manufacturer and product. They will not have your company's name on them and don’t always show proven test results.

Where applicable we will include the following statement relating to the item/s on the products page under the heading *Important Calibration Information.

This instrument comes complete with the manufacturer's calibration certificate. Please be aware that these certificates are generic and may also be time-lapsed.
If you would prefer a personalised full traceable calibration certificate applied to the equipment before dispatch, then please select this option from the drop-down menu above, an additional calibration charge will apply.

Manufacturers Certificate of Conformity

A manufacturer's certificate of conformity is not a calibration certificate. It is merely a statement that the equipment has been produced to operate within its intended application, it has no traceable certificate or constitutes any defined results for accuracy before leaving the manufacturing process.

Where applicable we will include the following statement relating to the item/s on the products page under the heading *Important Calibration Information.

This instrument comes with a ‘manufacturer's certificate of conformity’. It is important to understand that this does NOT constitute a ‘calibration certificate’. A certificate of conformity merely states that the equipment has been designed and produced to meet the requirements of its intended application.
Where calibration of an instrument is possible we will offer this as a separately purchasable item and may be selected from the drop-down box above. You will be sent a full traceable calibration certificate produced in our laboratory and applied with your details as required.

Personalised traceable calibration certificate from isswww

This is a calibration certificate created by us at ISS. This certificate is fully traceable to national and international standards. The certificate will show your company's details, tester information, proven test results and the equipment used to carry out the test. Nearly 90% of all calibrations we do are done in-house in one of our many fully equipped laboratories. You can add this service to your order on the product page before you checkout.

Where applicable we will include the following statement relating to the item/s on the products page under the heading *Important Calibration Information.

We are on occasion able to offer FREE calibration on certain products at their point of sale (newly purchased equipment only) please look out for the following badge on the product's page to take advantage of this free offer.

Description

Chauvin Arnoux CA6545 5KV Megohmmeter

Performance in the field

In their site-proof casing suitable for the severest measurement conditions, the CA6505, CA6545, CA6547, and CA6549 megohmmeters offer you the best in insulation testing in terms of accuracy and expertise. As soon as they are connected, they measure voltages, frequencies, capacitances, and residual currents on the installation or equipment to be tested. With their multiple functions, they not only qualify the insulation measured but also ensure genuine preventive maintenance.

CA6545 Megohmmeter Comes Supplied With:

Carrying bag containing:

2 safety leads 3 m long with HV plug and HV crocodile clip (red/blue)
1 guarded safety plug 3 m long with an HV plug with rear connection and an HV crocodile clip (black)
1 lead with rear connection (blue) 0.35 m long
1 main power cable 2 m long
1 simplified operating manual
1 operating manual in 5 languages

Key Features:

measurement range: 10 kΩ to 10 TΩ
4 fixed test voltages: 500 / 1,000 / 2,500 and 5,000 V
adjustable test voltage position: 40 to 5,100 V in 10 V or 100 V increments
large backlit LCD screen with digital display and bar graph
quantitative insulation analysis: DAR, PI, and DD (dielectric discharge) quality ratios calculated automatically, and R(t) stored
large number of functions: programmable test duration, test voltage locking, smooth function, programmable alarms, etc.
power supply: NiMH rechargeable battery for 30 days' operation with 10 DAR measurements and 5 PI measurements per day
electrical safety: IEC 61010-1 Cat.III 1000V or Cat. I 2500V and IEC 61557
dimensions: 270 x 250 x 180 mm; weight: 4.3 kg

Spares & Accessories (Not Supplied):

POLARIZATION INDEX (PI) & DIELECTRIC ABSORPTION RATIO (DAR) Insulation is sensitive to temperature and humidity variations. In addition, measurement is affected by the appearance of disturbance currents. To overcome these effects, long-term measurements must be performed and the PI and DAR coefficients must be calculated. They will then allow qualification of the insulants and their ageing.

DIELECTRIC DISCHARGE INDEX (DD) This test measures the dielectric absorption of a heterogeneous or multi-layer insulant and will reveal the presence of impurities or a faulty layer.

Var 50-5,000 V SETTING To deal with the whole range of measurement situations (electrical equipment, telecom installations, etc.) and measure as accurately as possible, all 3 instruments offer the possibility of selecting the test voltage by means of the Var 50-5,000 V setting on the rotary switch. The voltage can be adjusted between 40 V and 1,000 V in 10 V increments and between 1,000 V and 5,100 V in 100 V increments.

PROGRAMMABLE ALARMS A high or low alarm threshold can be memorized. If there is an overrun, a visual warning is triggered and a buzzer sounds.

STORAGE (C.A 6547 and C.A 6549) The C.A 6547 and C.A 6549 have an internal memory for storing several thousand measurements. Storage is performed with two indices, OBJ (object) and TEST (test), which store the results in an ordered way.

STEP VOLTAGE (C.A 6549) The resistance of a faulty insulant gradually decreases as the test voltage rises. This test, which involves increasing the test voltage in steps, can be used to assess the quality of the insulant by observing the curve R(Utest) and the result in ppm/V which provides a quantitative evaluation of the curve's slope.

TEST WITH PROGRAMMABLE DURATION Insulation measurements sometimes take a long time to stabilize because of transient disturbance currents. By carrying out long-term measurements and analysing the trend curve of the insulation according to the test voltage application time, you can obtain a better assessment of insulant quality.

GRAPH R(t) If a programmed-duration test is carried out, the instruments automatically store the samples concerning the insulation tested, at the rate chosen by the user. The curve R(t) can be plotted by hand on the basis of the results, or on screen via the DATAVIEWER software. With the C.A 6549, it is also possible to view the curve directly on the graphic screen.

SMOOTH FUNCTION When the measurements are unstable, the Smooth function can be used to smooth the display of the insulation values so that they are easier to read and can be interpreted more quickly

PRINTER (C.A 6547 and C.A 6549) A compact serial printer can be connected for direct printouts on site. It is also possible to use a desktop parallel printer with a series/parallel adapter available as an accessory

REFERENCE TEMPERATURE (C.A 6549) The value of an insulation resistance varies according to the measurement temperature. For accurate, reliable monitoring, it is always a good idea to express a measurement result in terms of a reference temperature. By simply pressing a button, the calculation can be performed automatically by the instrument.

DATAVIEW SOFTWARE This software recovers the stored data, plots the trend curve R(t), prints the customized test protocols, and creates files for spreadsheet software. DataView can also configure and control the instrument via an RS232 link!
