Advanced Insulation Tester for Power Stations and Heavy Industry
The TAURUS OHMEGA Insulation Tester is a high-end insulation analyzer designed for operation in highly induced environments, such as power stations. This portable system is ideal for testing insulation resistance in a wide variety of electrical assets, including transformers, motors, generators, cables, switchgear, capacitors, powerlines, busbars, and more.
All electrical assets in power stations and heavy industries are insulated from earth, and any imperfection in this insulation can result in significant damage to electrical equipment and pose safety risks. Insulation is affected by many factors, including excessive heat or cold, moisture, vibration, dirt, oil, and corrosive vapors, which can lead to deterioration. As such, routine insulation testing is essential to ensure the longevity and safety of electrical assets.
