Offline Fault Monitoring

BENDER offline ground detectors are designed for monitoring systems or loads while they are offline. These monitors may be employed on ungrounded systems or loads that are de-energized or disconnected from the main distribution. Additionally, they may be utilized for monitoring loads on grounded and high-resistance grounded systems that have been disconnected from the main system.

    Digital offline ground fault monitor for grounded and ungrounded systems

    The IR420-D6 monitors for ground faults on offline loads and circuits on grounded or ungrounded AC systems. The IR420-D6 monitors the system‘s insulation resistance to detect if any faults are present on the offline load. A digital display shows the insulation resistance reading in real-time. Two SPDT contact outputs are available for remote alarm indication.

    An external supply voltage is required to power the device. See ordering information for available supply voltages. High system voltages require the use of the AGH520S voltage coupler.
