DC Hipot - Megohmmeters (35 & 45kV DC)

Back

Designed for Rugged Operation
35kV & 45kV Megohmeter
DC Hipot to 45kV

The VON B-.35 and B-.45 are designed to be the most reliable 35 and 45kV testers available. They can be used to test cable, vacuum bottles, bushings, or anything that can be tested with DC voltage. Units can be operated off of 120V AC or 12V DC with the optional inverter and a light, easily portable design makes no job site too remote.

This two man portable unit contains:
High reliability VON voltage doubler circuit with silicon rectifiers.
The fully protected output meter in the high voltage lead indicates true leakage readings. Ranges 0-10 mic, 0-30 mic, 0-100 mic, 0-300 mic, 0-1 ma, 0-3 ma,0-10 ma.
Megohm scales on the output meter allow direct resistance reading from 100,000 ohms to 300,000 megohms.
A 0-5 amp A.C. ammeter in input of the 110 volt to 13kv air insulated epoxy impregnated high voltage transformer.
A rugged taut band high torque kilovoltmeter wit ranges of 0-10kv, 0-35kv or 0-15kV, 0-45kV.
A variable autotransformer for continuous voltage adjusment.
Power on and off-discharge switch discharges cable through a 2.5 megohm resistor.
Two ground relay systems require that the case ground, the 120 volt source ground, and the test lead ground be within 100 ohms or each other in order to operate the unit.
Varistors are provided between the 120 volt input lines and the case to provide surge protection to the equipment.
Shielded test lead, 35 feet (10.6M) long. Other lengths are available such as 60 feet and 75 feet.
Optional built in inverter with 15 ft.(4.6m) battery leads permits operation from a 12 volt truck battery
