High Voltage Cable Tester - 120kV DC

High Voltage Cable Tester - 120kV DC

HV insulation under full control

The Ares-120 DC device is universal high voltage tester. It is extremely robust, but also lightweight, compact and easily portable thanks to a transport case on wheels. Capacitive loads, such as shielded power cables, will be properly and automatically discharged in case of an error or at the end of testing time by the integrated discharge device.

Key switch, switch-on interlock and a protective ground circuit ensure maximum safety.

Features

  • Easy operation
  • Robust construction, low weight
  • Integrated timer:
    • max. 60 min 
  • •Discharge device:
