Product catalog summary
Overview: The MI 3288 Earth Insulation Tester is a portable, battery-powered instrument designed for measuring various electrical parameters in both energetic and non-energetic objects. It is suitable for high-altitude use and offers excellent IP protection.
Specifications: The tester can measure earth resistance, specific earth resistance, earth potential, step and touch voltages, insulation resistance, and continuity of protection conductors. It supports multiple measurement methods, including 4-wire earth resistance and TRMS current measurement. The device is equipped with a 4.3’’ color LCD touch screen and offers programmable AUTO SEQUENCEs.
Measuring Functions: Key functions include earth resistance measurement (4-pole, selective with 1 clamp, and with 2 clamps), specific earth resistance using the Wenner and Schlumberger methods, insulation resistance with DC voltage from 50 V to 2500 V, and current measurements with clamps. It also measures TRMS voltage and frequency, and performs low Ohm measurements.
Applications: The MI 3288 is used for initial and periodic testing of domestic and industrial installations, including industrial areas, smaller buildings, and mining facilities.
Standards: The device complies with safety standards EN 61010-1, EN 61010-2-030, EN 61010-2-032, and EN 61010-031. It also meets functionality standards EN 61557-2, EN 61557-4, and EN 61557-5, and electromagnetic compatibility standard EN 61326.
Key Features: The tester offers a wide range of insulation test voltages, high noise immunity, and a high degree of protection. It supports both single and automated measurements and includes a built-in charger with rechargeable Li-ion batteries. It features BT communication for data transfer to PCs and smart devices.
Technical Specifications: The tester operates in a measuring category of 300 V CAT IV, derated to 600 V CAT II and 300 V CAT III at 4000 m above sea level. It has a protection class of double insulation and an IP54 degree of protection. The power supply is a 7.2 V Li-ion battery pack.
Ordering Information: The standard set includes the MI 3288 tester, battery pack, power supply adapter, test leads, probes, crocodile clips, carrying bag, USB cable, and software license. Optional accessories include additional battery packs, current clamps, earth test sets, and a human body resistance probe.
