BIM-CH1 Insulation Monitoring Device

BIM-CH1 Insulation Monitoring Device

BIM-CH1 is designed for continuous insulation monitoring in unearthed (IT) DC systems, supporting voltage ranges up to DC 100–1000 V. The device features dedicated start/stop control for insulation monitoring, enabling real-time measurement of positive and negative pole insulation resistance. Measurement results remain accurate regardless of DC voltage fluctuations or asymmetry between poles.

Equipped with an RS485/Modbus interface, BIM-CH1 allows seamless remote monitoring of system status, ensuring enhanced safety and operational reliability.
