TEST OF DISCHARGE TIME
The C.A 6121
Voltage range : 600 V AC/DC
Max measurement time : 10 s
Discharge threshold : 60 V
Measurement of the discharge time
at the supply terminals of the machine
(2 point system)
Measurement of the discharge time
of the internal components (4 point
system: 2 for the detection of the mains
cut-out and 2 for the measurement
on internal components)
INSULA TION TEST
500 V or 1000 V DC
Range: 0...500 MΩ
Possible programming of a minimum
resistance threshold, below which,
an audible and visible alarm is set
off.
Test with or without timer
(2 s to 10 min)

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.

CONTINUITY TEST
Range : 0...1.99 Ω
Test voltage < 12 V AC
Test current (0...500 mΩ) > 10 A AC
4-wire measurement
Display of the result, either in V
(voltage drop ∆U defined in accordance
with EN 60204-1), or in Ω
Possible programming of a maximum
threshold of voltage drop (pre-set
values in accordance with standard),
or of resistance, with triggering of
an audible and visible alarm in case
of overshoot
DIELECTRIC TEST
1000 V, 1250 V ou 1500 V AC
Power : 500 VA
Adjustment of the maximum current
threshold from 1 to 500 mA
