this directive, whose aim is to guarantee
the safety of users, imposes four types of
electrical tests. To facilitate bringing into
conformity new or installed machines,
Chauvin Arnoux has grouped together all
the necessary measurements, in a unique
“all terrain” instrument.
Equipped with a particularly clear display,
the C.A 6121 surprises by its ease of
use. Besides its measurement capacities
and the variety of its accessories,
the instrument also has a comfortable
memory and an RS232 output for a paper
printout, or for exploitation on PC.

This PC software «C.A 6121 TRANSFER» enables you to read data stored
in your Machine Tester and transfer them to spreadsheet software like
EXCELTM, LOTUSTMand QUATRO PROTM.
It also allows you to memorise your personal data in the instrument, to get

• REMOTE CONTROL PED AL :
it frees the hands of the user
and provides the On/ Off
functions for the test and
memorisation of the result
(double pedal).
• HIGH VOLTAGE GUNS : Two dielectric
test guns equipped with a cable 6 m long,
are also available .
They allow tests to be
done at a greater distance than with standard
guns (2 m).
The user of the
software can choose the language to
use from French, English,
German, Italian or Spanish.
The instrument has different
printout modes,
automatic or
manual. The
serial printer is available
as an accessory (see end
