Chauvin Arnoux CA6524 1kV Insulation & Continuity Tester – 200 GΩ Industrial

Overview

The Chauvin Arnoux CA6524 is an advanced insulation and continuity tester designed to meet high demands in industrial maintenance, electrical safety audits, and preventive maintenance programs. With its ability to deliver test voltages from 50V to 1000V DC, high insulation resistance measurement up to 200 GΩ, multiple test modes, and strong safety / protection ratings, it provides both accuracy and ruggedness for engineers, electricians, and procurement teams responsible for ensuring equipment integrity and compliance.

This model succeeds earlier versions like the CA6522, adding expanded measurement range, enhanced user interface, more storage, and flexible alarm/variation functions. It is ideal for both periodic regulatory testing and in-field diagnostics where environmental and safety constraints are a concern.

Key Features

• Wide test voltage options: 50 V, 100 V, 250 V, 500 V, and 1,000 V DC for insulation testing.

• Insulation resistance measurement up to 200 GΩ.

• Continuity test modes at 200 mA and 20 mA, enabling high-precision or battery-efficient usage.

• Multiple test modes: Manual, Lock (to hold a reading), Timer (programmed duration), plus advanced PI and DAR ratio calculation to assess insulation quality.

• Display: dual digital display, backlit screen, with secondary display showing test voltage, test current, timer, plus a logarithmic bargraph for insulation measurement.

• Safety & protection: CAT IV 600V rating; robust casing with IP54 ingress protection; IK04 for mechanical protection.

• Ergonomics: magnetic stand for hands-free mounting; remote torch/spotlight for poorly lit environments; designed for glove-use access to buttons.

• Memory & alarms: store up to ~300 measurement results (without Bluetooth), variants with Bluetooth have ~1,300 entries; configurable alarm thresholds; ΔREL mode for comparing with a reference measurement.

• Additional measurement capabilities: voltage (TRMS & DC) up to ~700V; frequency from ~15.3 Hz to 800 Hz; resistance up to ~999 kΩ; capacitance; cable length estimation.

Applications

• Industrial plant maintenance: periodic insulation checks of motors, switchgear, cables to prevent failure and ensure equipment reliability.

• Electrical safety audits: in factories, buildings, power distribution centers where compliance with IEC standards and safety regulations is required.

• Preventive & predictive maintenance programs: trace insulation ageing, measure PI / DAR ratios to detect degradation.

• Field service / utility work: durable design, battery powered, protected against dust / water ingress, use under rough conditions.

• Utilities and infrastructure: verifying insulation integrity of feeders, transformers, high load circuits.
