HIPO-100
100kV Advanced DC HiPot
Output: 0.0-100.0kV ±100V at 1mA (continuous)
Fully programmable voltage, current, and test duration
kV/µA/TΩ real-time and min/max measurements
Touch-screen control with advanced automatic and manual testing modes
Very quick setup - cable storage & usage from within the integrated transport/operation case (rack-mounting version also available for lab/factory applications)
The HIPO-100 is an advanced 100kV/1mA digitally controlled HiPot unit suitable for a wide range of high voltage testing tasks. With the same vacuum interrupter testing functionality as the VIPO units, the HIPO series have higher output power plus improved regulation, accuracy, and testing modes.
The unit can also be fully remotely controlled for advanced/custom testing applications.
