Prevent measurement errors!
When a monitored IT system contains galvanically coupled DC circuits, an
insulation fault can only be detected correctly if the rectifier valves (e.g.
rectifier diode, thyristors, IGBTs, frequency inverters, …) carry a minimum
current of > 10 mA.
Unspecified frequency range
When connecting to an IT system with frequency components below the
specified frequency range, the response times and response values may
differ from the indicated technical data. However, depending on the ap-
plication and the selected measurement method, continuous insulation
monitoring is also possible in this frequency range.
There is no influence on the insulation monitoring for IT systems with fre-
quency components above the specified frequency range, e.g. within the
range of typical switching frequencies of frequency inverters (2…20 kHz).
2.4 Intended use
The ISOMETER® isoNAV685-D monitors the insulation resistance of unearthed AC main
circuits (IT systems) with input voltages of AC 0…690 V and a frequency of 60 Hz in the
three-phase network.
DC components existing in AC/DC systems do not influence the operating characteristics.
Due to the separate supply voltage, de-energised systems can also be monitored. The
maximum permissible system leakage capacitance is 0…150 µF, depending on the pro-
file.
Intended use also implies:
• The observation of all information in the operating manual
• Compliance with test intervals
In order to meet the requirements of applicable standards, customised parameter set-
tings must be made on the equipment in order to adapt it to local equipment and oper-
ating conditions. Please heed the limits of the area of application indicated in the
technical specifications.
Any other use than that described in this manual is regarded as improper.
Only
qualified personnel
are permitted to carry out the work necessary
to install, commission and run a device or system.
