Advanced DSP Technology

Vitrek’s 950is DSP design results in the fastest most capable, feature rich hipot testers available in the industry today. All or a surprisingly low affordable price.

Extremely Affordable

Programmable Hipot Insulation Resistance Testers start as low as start as low as $2995.00. (Vitrek 959i)

High Output Power

Higher test power results in better drive capability and increased test throughout.  With up to 50mA (standard) of current sourcing for AC & DC Hipot testing, the 950i Series gets heavy duty jobs done faster.

Up to 200mA Sourcing

If 50mA current sourcing isn’t enough, the200mA drive (Option AC-2) tackles even tougher sourcing requirements where high leakage testing is more common.

40 Amp Ground Bond Testing

Ground Bond Test Capability is available in Vitrek 951i, 954i and 959i with output currents from 100mA to 40Amps RMS.

AC or DC IR Testing

Choose either or both AC IR or DC IR to suit your measurement requirement

Continuously Variable IR Test Voltage

Unlike most IR testers that restrict testing to 3 or 4 discrete test voltages, the 950i Series allows you to select continuously variable test voltages. Starting as low as 2V all the way to 6.5KV or 11KV in the higher voltage models like the 953i, 954i and 955i Hipot Testers.

Pass/Fail/Stop Insulation Resistance Testing

Triple Stop and End Test on timer  Programming ~ Stop and end test on PASS reading or FAIL reading

First in Personnel Safety HSSD™ High Speed Solid-State load Discharge

Vitrek’s 950i Series Hipot Testers feature HSSD™ High Speed Solid-State load Discharge which removes exposed voltages super fast, much faster than slow passive resistor designs.  Recessed start switch prevents inadvertent actuation.

SFI™ Safety Fault Interrupt Product Protection

To prevent damage to the Device Under Test (DUT), the Vitrek 950i’s output is shut down in as little as 50uS upon detection of the fault limit being exceeded.

TLSS™ Test Lead Safety Sense

The 950i Series Hipot Testers verifies that test leads are properly connected prior to and during HV and continuity testing.

10KVAC & 11KVDC or Optionally to 30KVAC

The Vitrek 950i Series Hipot Insulation Resistance Testers offer AC Test Voltages to 6KV and 10KV and DC Test Voltages to 6500VDC and 1000VDC as standard. (30KVAC/10mA Option)

Fast Ramp up Rates to 50KV/Sec

Vitrek’s 950i Series use Dual Coldfire® microprocessors combined with Dual DSPs to provide Ramp rates up to 50KV/second, fastest in the industry.

Variable Output Test Frequency

Digitally synthesized, low distortion sinewave 20Hz to 500Hz, provides test frequencies compatible with the North American, European, Asian, South American and 400Hz Avionics’ market test requirements.

Avonics 400HZ  Withstand IR Testing

The 950i Series provides variable frequency testing including 400Hz for the Avonics industry Insulation Resistance Withstand testing requirements.

Dwell Times as Fast as 3mSec

To facilitate faster production testing throughput, the Vitrek 950i Series Hipot Testers provides standard test dwell times as low as 20mSec and up to 9999 seconds. Dwell times as fast as 3mS are available in optional Flash mode.(Option PMT-1)

Ground Continuity 4-Wire Milli-Ohmmeters

For faster accurate 5 digit resistance ground continuity measurements with resolution down to 100µΩ the Vitrek 950I Series also ranges up to 100K ohms.

Phase Angle Leakage Current Measurement

The Vitrek 950i Hipot Insulation Resistance Testers allows the measurement and display of both resistive (in-phase) leakage current and reactive (out-of-phase) leakage current caused by capacitive coupling.

Independent Programmable Ramp UP/Dwell  Current Limits

Independent programming control permits the user to set separate limits for the ramp voltages and dwell times providing faster ramp times and lower leakage test limits.

Multi-Dwell Times vs. Test Voltages

This feature permits dwells at different voltage levels without having to return to zero between test steps - dramatically simplifying advanced analysis of dielectric properties.

Pico-Amp Leakage Measurement

The Vitrek 950i Series Hipot IR Testers uniquely insure that even the lowest leakage current levels are accurately detected and Tera-ohm (TΩ)  range IR readings are stable and precise.

Insulation Resistance to 4TΩ(Multi-Range)

The Vitrek 950i Series offers multi-range Insulation Resistance testing 50GΩ full scale to 4 Tera-Ohms.

RS232, Digital I/O & Scanner Control

All Vitrek 950i Series Standard Interfaces provides the highest level of test automation.  Full serial control and DI/O with remote start/stop, safety fault interrupt, test select and more.

Broadband Arc Detection

Where lesser testers allow the setting single, global, amplitude only arc detection limit - the technologically advanced Vitrek 950i Series utilizes Dual time & amplitude testing control based arc limits and uniquely applies them to the individually desired test.

Capacitance Test Modes

For AC & DC hipot and IR, the 950i Series provide tightly controlled charge and discharge profiles for superior results on critical solar panel tests and other highly capacitive loads.

Solar Panel Testing Simplified

Designed with PV testing in mind, the 950i Series uses  pico-amp resolution to detect minute defects in solar cells while its HSSD High Speed Solid Discharge provides the industry's safest and fastest throughput rates

Hard Copy Test Report

Ethernet (Opt. UL-2) and GPIB (Opt. GUL-3) all available via optional interface cards.  Host USB printer control port generates comprehensive test report at the touch of a button, LAN and GPIB ports offer robust industrial interface formats.

Capacitance Test Modes

For AC & DC hipot and IR provide tightly controlled charge and discharge profiles for superior results on critical solar panel tests and other highly capacitive loads

Light Weight ~ High Efficiency

With SMT technology the 950i Series offer reduced component count and reduces internal heat rise while improving overall reliability. The design features a Switching Mode Power Supply which reduces the starting weight to only 18 lbs. The 950i Series easily transported.

3 Year Extended Warranty

Built-in reliability you can count on for years to come
