DC isolation test input to output and 
input to case  

1.

 

Disconnect all cables from the converter. 

2.

 

Connect the output terminals of the converter to 
case. 

3.

 

Connect the input terminals together. 

4.

 

Connect your isolation tester between input and 
case. See 

ג

. Raise the voltage of the isolation 

tester from 0 to 2000Vd.c. Check that the 
leakage current does not exceed 5µA. The 
voltage should not be applied for more than a 
few seconds or the Y-capacitors might be 
damaged.  

5.

 

Turn off the isolation tester and discharge the 
test voltage with a 10 M

 resistor between 

input and case.

AC isolation test input to output and 
input to case 

You can also test 2500Va.c. for one (1) minute 
between input to output and case on units with 
input codes 110, 220, C and D.  

Beware of the rather high capacitive earth 
currents (about 50mA) that will occur during 
this test.

  

If your isolation test equipment cannot supply this 
current, you can perform a DC isolation test with 
4000Vd.c (2500V x 

2 x 1.1 

 4000Vd.c where 1.1 

= safety factor). Follow the instructions in 

5.2 

DC 

isolation test input to output and input to case  
above but test with 4000Vd.c. instead of 2000Vd.c.

 

The leakage current should not exceed 5µA. 

AC isolation test: 

1.

 

Disconnect all cables from the converter. 

2.

 

Connect the output terminals of the converter to 
case. See 

ג

3.

 

Connect the input terminals together. 

4.

 

Connect your isolation tester between input and 
case. See 

ג

. Raise the voltage of the isolation 

tester from 0 to 2500Va.c. The voltage should 
not be applied for more than one (1) minute or 
the Y-capacitors might be damaged.  

5.

 

Turn off the isolation tester and discharge the 
test voltage with a 10 M

 resistor between 

input and case.  

 

5.4

 

DC isolation test output1 to output2 

1.

 

Disconnect all cables from the converter.  

2.

 

Connect the input terminals of the converter to 
case.  

3.

 

Connect the output ”U2” terminals to case. 

4.

 

Connect the output ”U1” terminals together. 

5.

 

Connect your isolation tester between output 
”U1” and case. See 

ד

. Raise the voltage of the 

isolation tester from 0 to 500Vd.c. Check that 
the leakage current does not exceed 5µA. The 
voltage should not be applied for more than a 
few seconds or the Y-capacitors might be 
damaged.  

6.

 

Turn off the isolation tester and discharge the 
test voltage with a 10 M

 resistor between 

output ”U1” and case.

Trouble shooting 

6.1

 

There is no output voltage 

1.

 

Check that the input fuse is not broken.
