5000V Graphical Megohmmeter Model 5070

The Model 5070, the latest design in 5000V Megohmmeters, is the most innovative product in its class on the market today. The features and functions incorporated in this product are the results of many years of analyzing how megohmmeters are used in everyday applications. The most advanced technology available has been applied to automate and facilitate the testing process for these applications.
Many features incorporated in the Model 5070 (not found in any other megohmmeter on the market today) include automatic calculation and presentation of the Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR), Polarization Index (PI) and Dielectric Discharge (DD). The PI ratio times are also user defined. This new ad vanced megohmmeter displays the test voltage, insulation resistance and the leakage current during and after the test.

Capacitance of the sample and discharge voltage present at the test leads is displayed at the conclusion of the test. The Model 5070 is the only megohmmeter to offer both a graphical plot of the test right on the instrument, as well as a digital presentation of the test results. The Model 5070 also offers the ability to program up to three step voltage profiles, each containing up to five steps.
The Model 5070 is designed with the highest level of safety features built in. The unit is packaged in a rugged insulated case. The Model 5070 incorporates test inhibit capabilities which will not allow test voltages to be generated if a live sample is detected. The test terminals are recessed to ensure operating safety. The test leads, rated for 5000V for both testing and measurement, are the only truly safety approved 5000V leads on the market today. The Model 5070 can

be operated from an internal rechargeable battery system or from AC line power.
The Model 5070 offers additional functionality in that an RS-232 port provides the ability to configure the units from a PC and run the test from the PC. Automatic documentation of test conditions and test results eliminates the need for writing down information. Test reports can be generated directly from the instrument to a printer or through the PC using the DataView software provided.
The list of features, functions and benefits goes on and on. If you are looking for a truly advanced 5000V Megohmmeter, the AEMC Model 5070 is the best in class and available at an affordable price.

Insulation can be subject to slow, gradual degradation over long periods of time, as well as sudden damage. The effects of moisture, dirt, corrosion, chemical penetration and even vibration can cause degradation of insulation. The effects of this degradation can easily be documented by using the automatic Polarization Index test feature standard on all models. Comparing the results over time will provide valuable information for preventative maintenance measures.

Key Functions

Smooth Function – This function is very
useful when the readings on the display are unstable and hard to read. It applies a digital filter to the displayed readings to smooth out the presentation. It does not effect the measurement or recording of data.
Alarm Function – Allows for the setting of a
low limit resistance value for each test voltage, below which a buzzer will sound alerting you to a problem condition.
Selectable Voltage – Provides the flexibility
to program an exact voltage for a specific test to any voltage from 40 to 5100V in 10V increments. The Model 5070 also allows for storage of three different voltage selections.
Test Voltage Lock-out – Gives the flexibility
to limit the maximum output test voltage to any value from 40 to 5100V to protect delicate equipment from accidental exposure to excessive test voltages.
Timer Function – Program a test run time
from one minute to 50 hours.
Record Function – provides the option to
automatically store the data from a timed test at programmable intervals or to store the results of the test manually at the push of a button at the end of the test.
Print Function – Provides a direct print
out to a printer of test results in a predefined format.
Graph Function – Provides a graphic
representation of a time test on the display of the Model 5070 of insulation resistance vs. time. If the step voltage mode is selected, the step volt­age is also shown graphically.
Ramp Function – Allows programming of three
different ramp test profiles, each containing up to five voltage steps between 40 and 5100V and time per step of up to 10 hours.
Temperature Function – Provides the ability
to display insulation resistance temperature corrected to a specific reference temperature.
