GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH
METRISO 1000A
Insulation Tester
Nominal voltages 50 V, 100 V, 250 V, 500 V and 1000 V
This instrument is suited for measurement of insulation resistance
at voltage-free devices and systems with nominal voltages of up
to 1000 V, and for the insulation testing of earth conductors, pro-
tective conductors and bonding conductors, including junctions
and connections.
Quick testing with signal lamp
The signal lamp in the test prod serves to illuminate the work area,
and also indicates an evaluation of the insulation resistance as OK
or Failure. As long as this lamp is lit, the minimum values for insu-
lation resistance per VDE 0100 have been met.
Low impedance measurement 0 ... 4 Ω
Low impedance measurement in accordance with VDE 0413,
Part 4 is also possible.
Voltage measurement to 1000 V
The instrument is also equipped with a 1000 V measuring range
for direct and alternating current. This is especially advantageous
for the testing of devices for the absence of voltage, and the dis-
charge of capacitive devices under test.
Minimal use of batteries
Measurement only occurs when the ON/OFF button is
depressed. This provides for long service life of the batteries.
Dial gauge with signal lamp
The condition of the batteries is indicated by the color of the sig-
nal lamp at the left side of the dial gauge. This lamp also serves to
indicate that the instrument is switched on.

Turn-on performance
for insulation resistance measurement
An electronic voltage limiter prevents the voltage at the device
under test from substantially exceeding nominal voltage at turn-on
(see following characteristic curves).
