General Description

This chapter gives an overview of the TOS5300 Series and explains the options that are available for it.

Product Overview

5302
The TOS5300 Series Withstanding Voltage and Insulation Resistance Testers perform withstanding voltage and insulation resistance tests, which are two of the four tests that are required for ensuring
the safety of electrical products.
This product can perform withstanding voltage and insulation resistance tests on electrical products and electrical components in accordance with the requirements of safety and electrical standards and ordinances such as IEC, EN, UL, VDE, and JIS.
It is suited to (1) research and development installations, (2) test facilities for quality assurance testing and standard certification, and (3) manufacturing lines.
The TOS5300 can perform AC withstanding voltage tests (ACW). The TOS5301 can perform AC withstanding voltage tests and DC withstanding voltage tests (ACW and DCW). The TOS5302 can perform AC withstanding voltage tests (ACW) and insulation resistance tests (IR).
These withstanding voltage and insulation resistance testers are easy to use, safe, and reliable.

Features

Newly developed constant-voltage output for stable testing
The TOS5300 Series is not affected by AC line interference. Because the output voltage is maintained at a fixed value even if the AC line voltage or frequency changes, stable tests can be performed even in locations where the power supply is unstable. The AC inlet is designed for worldwide use. The TOS5300 Series can be used without modification provided the nominal power supply voltage is within the range of 100 VAC to 240 VAC (90 VAC to 250 VAC)
and the frequency is within the range of 47 Hz to 63 Hz.
1
Rise time control feature that gradually increases the test voltage (only for withstanding voltage tests)
Instead of immediately applying the specified test voltage to the DUT after the test begins, this makes it possible to perform tests in which the voltage is raised gradually to the test voltage. As required by withstanding voltage tests defined by standards such as IEC and UL, this makes it possible to perform tests in which no more than half of the test voltage is applied at the start of the test, and the test voltage is gradually reached over the specified time.
Fall time control feature that gradually decreases the test voltage
The test voltage can be gradually decreased after a PASS judgment occurs during an AC withstanding voltage test.
Auto test (AUTO TEST) for performing consecutive tests
A combination of an AC withstanding voltage test and an insulation resistance test (IR) can be performed in sequence.
Calibration Protection feature that provides a notification when TOS5300 Series calibration is required
The product displays a message when the preset calibration period elapses. It is also possible to switch the product into protection mode and apply limits to its use when this period elapses.
1 The four tests are the withstanding-voltage, insulation-resistance, earth-continuity, and leakage-current
tests.
14 TOS5300
Product Overview
Window comparator feature for setting upper and lower judgment limits
You can set not only the upper limit, but the lower limit as well. This is useful in determining whether there are breaks in test leads or whether there was a mistake during operations. This leads to highly reliable tests.
Ability to save three sets of test conditions
Up to three sets of test conditions for single tests (AC withstanding voltage tests, DC withstanding voltage tests, and insulation resistance tests) and auto tests (an insulation resistance test followed by a withstanding voltage test and a withstanding voltage test followed by an insulation resistance test) can be saved.
1
Improved safety
In addition to having features that enable you to view the output voltage, the TOS5300 Series also enables you to set the voltage limits, so you can prevent a voltage greater than what is necessary from being generated unintentionally. This provides protection for the DUT.
Standard-equipped USB port
The TOS5300 Series is standard-equipped with a USB interface. You can use a PC or sequencer to control test conditions and read measured values and test results.
Easier to read
The LED graphic display is easy to read. Additionally, when a protective feature is activated, the reason for its activation is easily viewable on the display.
Light-weight and easy to move
Even though the TOS5300 Series can generate 500 VA, which is sufficient for performing withstanding voltage tests, it weighs at most 15 kg, so it can be moved by even a single person.
Protection against incorrect operations
In addition to the key lock feature, the TOS5300 Series has a protection cover for the part of its panel that is used to change test conditions. This cover is useful in preventing incorrect operations when you want to perform tests with fixed conditions.

p.68
The first time that you turn the POWER switch on after you purchase the TOS5300 Series, the tester will be in PROTECTION mode through the interlock feature. Connect the included SIGNAL I/O plug to the SIGNAL I/O connector to release the interlock feature.
Only use the included SIGNAL I/O plug to easily release the PROTECTION mode.
When you are actually performing tests, use the interlock feature to ensure safety.
During withstanding voltage and insulation resistance tests in which you are using tools, (1) placing a cover over the DUT so that output is turned off whenever the cover is removed to prevent electric shock and (2) placing a safety fence around the work area where withstanding voltage and insulation resistance tests are being performed so that output is turned off whenever the fence is opened are both examples of effective safety measures.
When the TOS5300 Series is turned on, a self-test is run, and all the indicators on the front panel light. To ensure safety, check that all the indicators light before you use the TOS5300 Series. It is especially dangerous to use the tester if its DANGER LED is broken.
When the power is turned on, the DANGER LED lights, but no voltage is generated.

Possible electric shock. During testing (while the TEST LED or DANGER LED is lit), never touch the HIGH VOLTAGE terminal, test leads, and DUT.

Using test leads

Possible electric shock.
• Parts of the included test leads near the alligator clips protrude from the vinyl insulation when the wires are connected. These parts are dangerous. Never come close to these parts during testing.
• If connections are incomplete, the entire DUT may be charged to a high voltage. This is dangerous, so be sure to connect the DUT correctly.
• Be sure to connect the LOW test lead (black) first.
Connecting the low and high voltage terminals incorrectly may lead to malfunctions. A plate that is designed to prevent incorrect connections to these terminals is attached to the LOW test lead (black). Do not remove this plate.

Reducing the effect of noise
Noise may be generated if the outputs are shorted or if the DUT insulation is damaged. Electronic devices in the surrounding area may malfunction due to the effect of this noise. To reduce the effect of noise, connect a toroidal core or a resistor of approximately 470 Ω between the tips of the HIGH VOLTAGE and LOW test leads and the DUT. Connect the toroidal core or resistor as close to the DUT as possible.
If you are connecting a toroidal core, it is effective to wrap the test leads two to three times around a type of core that can be snapped on and that is often used with power cables. This type of core is usually approximately 20 mm in diameter.
If you are connecting a resistor, pay close attention to the power rating of the resistor. When the upper limit is 10 mA or less, connect a resistor of approximately 470 Ω (3 W, 30 kV impulse withstanding voltage). Because this resistor causes the voltage to fall, the voltage that is actually applied to the DUT is slightly lower than the voltage that is generated from the product’s output terminals (when a 10 mA current flows, the voltage falls approximately 10 V).
These methods are extremely useful in reducing the effect of noise.
