Unpacking/Inspection
Inspect the shipping carton before opening. If damaged contact the carrier agent immediately.
Inspect the Guardian 2500 instrument for any damage. If the instrument appears damaged or
fails to meet specifications notify QuadTech (refer to instruction manual front cover) or its local
representative. Retain the shipping carton and packing material for future use such as returning
for recalibration or service.

Product Overview
The Guardian 2500 Series of Hipot testers is designed to perform the most common electrical
safety tests outlined in UL, CSA, IEC, TUV, EN and other standards. Three models are
available, the Guardian 2510, 2520 and 2530.
The Guardian 2510 AC Hipot Tester performs AC dielectric withstand (hipot) tests. The test
voltage can be programmed over a range of 100V to 5KVAC with a resolution of 2V. Leakage
current detection is programmable over a range of 1µA to 15mA. Total, real or imaginary
current can be monitored and displayed.
The Guardian 2520 AC/DC Hipot Tester has all the features of the Guardian 2510 with the
addition of DC Hipot. The test voltage can be programmed over a range of 100V to 6KVDC
with a resolution of 2V. Leakage current detection is programmable over a range of 0.1µA to
7.5mA.
The Guardian 2530 AC/DC/IR Hipot Tester has all the features of the 2510 and 2520 plus
measurement of insulation resistance. IR measurements are possible (voltage dependent) over a
range from 10kΩ to 2TΩ, at test voltages from 50 to 1000VDC.
All three models of the 2500 include ground continuity test capability. The instrument provides
internal storage 25 single step setups and 9 multi-step setups (up to 3 steps each). A remote
interface and RS-232 are standard; IEEE-488 or an advance remote interface are available
options.
The Guardian 2500 Hipot Tester is capable of generating extremely HIGH VOLTAGE, up
