Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The document provides an overview of the VARIMETER series, focusing on insulation monitoring devices (IMD), insulation fault detection systems (EDS), and residual current monitors (RCM). These devices are designed to ensure operational readiness by detecting insulation faults that can lead to costly downtimes and safety hazards.
Technical Contribution
The VARIMETER devices offer insulation monitoring for disconnected consumers, enhancing safety and preventing potential hazards such as fires and personal injuries. The devices alert users to insulation faults at an early stage, allowing for timely maintenance and prevention of system shutdowns.

The devices are applicable in various fields, including medical areas, and comply with standards like DIN EN 62020 for monitoring residual currents in indoor installations.
Custom-Made Solutions
DOLD offers tailored solutions ranging from standard monitoring devices to expandable fault reporting systems, ensuring protection for machines and systems.
Advantages
The key benefits include improved safety, fire prevention, accident prevention, high efficiency, and optimized maintenance. The devices provide centralized or decentralized alarm indications and are backed by DOLD's extensive experience in developing efficient solutions.
Insulation Monitoring Devices (IMD)
The IMD monitors insulation resistance in non-earthed systems, providing timely information about potential hazards. The devices are available for AC, DC, and combined systems, with features like adjustable tripping values, Modbus RTU interfaces, and extended temperature ranges.
Specific Device Overviews
  • RL 5889: Suitable for AC, DC, and mixed networks, with user-friendly parameterization and status visualization.
  • LK 5895: Designed for photovoltaic systems, capable of handling large network leakage capacities.
  • MK 5880N: For pure DC and AC networks, with programmable memory and hysteresis behavior.
  • RN 5893: Used in DC charging stations, compliant with UL 2231, and features Modbus RTU interface.
  • RN 5897/300: Developed for mobile power generators, ensuring immediate operational readiness and safety.
  • RN 5897/010: Suitable for modern power supplies with high leakage capacitances, applicable in mixed IT networks.
Insulation Monitoring
The RN 5897/010 and RN 5897/011 are insulation monitors used in ungrounded networks. They measure insulation resistance against PE and alert users via a multicolor display and signal relays if resistance falls below set thresholds. The RN 5897/011 features a Modbus RTU interface for easy communication and control, reducing wiring and improving system diagnostics.
Insulation Fault Detection (EDS)
The VARIMETER EDS system, including devices like RR 5886 and RR 5887, automatically localizes insulation faults in non-earthed systems. It uses a test current generator to inject a signal into the system, which is then evaluated to locate faults. This system is beneficial for complex and widely distributed networks, allowing for optimal maintenance planning and increased system reliability.
Residual Current Monitoring (RCM)
The VARIMETER RCM series, including devices like RN 5883 and IR 5882, monitors residual currents in earthed systems (TN, TT networks). These devices detect fault currents early, preventing downtime and fire hazards. The RN 5883 is sensitive to all current types, while the IR 5882 is compact and suitable for installation boards, offering preventive maintenance and system protection.
Applications
These monitoring solutions are applicable in various sectors, including industrial systems, power plants, transportation, and hospitals, where system reliability and safety are critical.

VARIMETER-2

You know the situation: complex production systems, high requirements in terms of the quality, delivery time and reliability, permanent cost pressure. This requires more than ever a comprehensive operational readiness in order to be able to maintain and improve the competitiveness at the international level. In practice, however, a comprehensive operational readiness is often given only conditionally, because insulation faults may slowly but progressively occur due to ageing, moisture, pollution, mechanical damage and other factors. Consequences of such undiscovered errors are costly plant shut-downs...

Insulation monitoring of AC/DC networks VARIMETER IMD Insulation monitoring device (abbreviated: IMD), monitors the insulation resistance in non-earthed systems (IT systems). DIN VDE 0100-410 and DIN VDE 0100-710 standards mandate the use of an insulation monitoring device in non-earthed systems, in order to detect a first occurring fault between an active conductor and a component or against the ground. The IMD has to emit an optical and / or acoustic signal if a first fault occurs. Disturbances which are the result of insulation faults and costly operational downtimes, personal and other damage...

VARIMETER-5

Operating principle Insulation monitor (IMD) The insulation monitoring device is connected between the active mains conductors and the ground. When the measurement process is active, it supplies the mains with a measuring voltage. If an insulation fault occurs, the measuring circuit will close and a small current, proportional to the insulation fault will flow. This measuring current is evaluated by the electronic system of the device. If the insulation resistance falls below a certain value (response value), a message is issued via the device. Insulation monitoring devices of the VARIMETER IMD...
