APPLICATIONS The PT-5000W is a general purpose insulation tester for both primary voltage and secondary voltage insulation systems and components. Most important is that the proper voltage is selected for the system or components to be tested. For secondary voltage systems rated to 600V select the 500VDC test range.

Testing across the two bushings of a two bushing capacitor or from bushing to ground on a one bushing capacitor will place a substantial charge on the capacitor and the PT-5000W will indicate leakage current until the capacitor is fully charged. Because of the built in 30 second time limit, capacitors tested in this manner can only be charged up to 500VDC and should only be tested with the 500VDC range.
SPECIFICATIONS TEST VOLTAGE: 500VDC or 5,000VDC nominal TEST CURRENT: 100 microamps indicated on 5,000VDC range and 1,000 microamps indicated on 500VDC range, 2,000 microamps maximum. BATTERY: 9V lithium or alkaline IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Read and understand these instructions prior to use. These operating instructions are not a substitute for proper training in the use of this equipment.
