The IR5051 is a compact, lightweight insulation resistance tester with a 5 kV output, capable of stable measurements up to 10 TΩ. It can test insulation resistance in solar PV systems up to 2000 V with a CAT III 2000 V safety rating. It includes a dedicated mode for PV measurements and supports 1500 V systems, ready for future 2000 V systems. It complies with IEC 62446-1 for Category 1 and 2 tests, ensuring safety and performance.
- Measure insulation resistance while the solar PV system continues to generate
- Identify ground faults in solar power systems using our free app, GENNECT Cross
- Ideal for high-voltage insulation resistance testing
- Advanced insulation diagnostic features
- Streamlined data management and reporting
- Automatically calculated and displayed insulation diagnostics (PI, DAR, and DD)
- Data memory functions increase your work efficiency by eliminating human errors from manual reporting
- Compact and lightweight, equipped with an IP65-rated carrying case
