Why Need DC Insulation Monitoring

22With the global energy crisis, rising energy consumption and the development of new energy technologies, new energy power generation has become more widespread and gradually formed a new type of energy and power market. As an important part of new energy applications, DC systems are also increasingly widely used.


22The AIM-D series DC insulation monitors are specially designed for DC systems, used for earth fault detection in ungrounded DC systems. When an earth fault occurs in the DC system, it can send out an insulation fault alarm signal.

 


Application


22The products can be applied to DC systems such as DC panels in power plants and substations, electric vehicle charging equipment, UPS power supply systems, energy storage systems and other DC power grids.

1. When the insulation resistance between the output circuit and the enclosure including the vehicle chassis deteriorates to less than or equal to 100 Ω/V or 100 kΩ (DC1000V), the operating sequence shall be terminated.

2. When a 0 Ω ground fault is detected, the operating sequence shall be terminated.
