Add Certificate Of Calibration?

Qty

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 CA6550 10KV/15kV High Voltage Insulation Tester

Insulation Measurement at 15kV, a job for experts

With their test voltages of up to 10 kV/15 kV, the CA6550 and CA6555 megohmmeters are expert tools for testing insulation safely and accurately. As they comply with the most recent recommended practice while taking into account future developments, they are ideal for use on rotating equipment and machinery operating at 12 kV or even higher.

The multiple test modes mean that you can both assess the insulation in qualitative terms by non-destructive testing (“I-limit” and “early-break” modes) and use samples to investigate insulation ageing problems for preventive maintenance purposes (“burning” mode). The C.A 6550 and CA6555 offer quick, effective checking of test execution by displaying the evolution of the test in progress in graphic form.

Thanks to their large storage capacity, complete analysis of the test sessions performed on-site can be carried out with the DataView® software after transferring the data onto a PC.

Chauvin Arnoux CA6550 Comes Supplied With:

CAT IV Accessory Bag
2x 3m Safety Leads
1 Guard Test Lead
Mains Power Cord
3x Crocodile Clips
USB/Optical Communication Cable
User Guide
DataView Software

Key Features:

Wide measurement range from 10 kΩ to 30 TΩ
Fixed or programmable test voltage from 40 V to 10/15 kV
5 mA charging current
Large backlit LCD screen with digital display, bar graph and R(t)+u(t) , i(t) and i(u) graphs
Automatic calculation of DAR / PI / DD /∆R (ppm/V) ratios
Multiple test modes: voltage ramp and step with “burning”, “early break” and “I-limit” modes
3 filters to optimize measurement stability
Calculation of R at a reference temperature
Storage of 80,000 measurements and Real-time Clock
Optically-isolated USB communication for transfer onto PC and report generation with the DataView® software

Key Applications:

Thanks to their large measurement range, extending up to 30 TΩ, the CA6550 and CA6555 meet the requirements of companies manufacturing cables, transformers, rotating machinery, and medium-voltage generators, as well as professionals in the Electricity Transmission and Distribution sector.

Insulation measurement at up to 10/15 kV

On LV/HV rotating machines, transformers, cables, high-voltage generators, overhead and underground electricity transmission and distribution networks, surge suppressors/spark arresters, measurement transducers, etc.

2 levels of diagnostics :

“Go/No Go” test
Qualitative measurement for preventive maintenance purposes:
Test with programmable duration

Qualitative measurement:

Polarization Index (PI) ratio, dielectric absorption ratio (DAR) and dielectric discharge (DD) index for testing heterogeneous multi-layered insulation

Fixed voltage mode

Step, Ramp mode:

Results independent of temperature, detection of insulant cracking and ageing

I-limit or dI/dt (early-break) trigger modes:

Optimization of non-destructive tests (e.g. Varistor testing)

Burning mode (no triggering)

Selectable voltage from 40 V to 10,000 / 15,300 V

Graphic LCD display of R(t) + u(t), I(t), I(u) (useful for testing semi-conductors)

Storage of results for export onto a PC

Using analysis software to process the measurement logs.
