1 Preface

Outline of the TOS7200

The TOS7200 is an insulation resistance tester that is available in a wide range of electric and
electronic components and equipment, and allows any test voltage to be set. Because it
features the window comparator and timer function, the tester is capable of efficiently
conducting insulation resistance tests based on various safety standards. Moreover, with the
panel memory, which can be recalled externally and the RS232C interface provided as
standard equipment, the tester can flexibly handle automated systems.

Features

 Arbitrary setting of the output voltage


The output voltage may be set to between 25 V and 1000 V. Thus, insulation resistance
tests can be conducted on a wide range of electric and electronic components and
equipment.

Test voltage Resistance measurement range


25 V 0.03 MΩ to 250 MΩ
50 V 0.05 MΩ to 500 MΩ
100 V 0.10 MΩ to 1000 MΩ
125 V 0.13 MΩ to 1250 MΩ
250 V 0.25 MΩ to 2500 MΩ
500 V 0.50 MΩ to 5000 MΩ
1000 V 1.00 MΩ to 5000 MΩ

 Equipped with a discharge function


The tester features a discharge function, which discharges the electric charge in the device
under test (DUT.) This allows tests to be conducted more safely.

 Equipped with a window comparator


The tester has adopted a window comparator system capable of making judgments on
both the upper and lower limits. This prevents non-contact-caused judgment errors and
other errors.

 Equipped with a timer function


The tester features a timer function that allows the test time to be set. It also enables
setting of the wait time, allowing more secure measurements and evaluation.

TOS7200 11
Preface

 Output terminals on the rear panel


Output terminals on the rear panel improve wiring workability in an automated
production line or other workshops.

 Analog output
The rear panel is provided with an analog output section for measured resistance values.

 Equipped with a panel memory


As the TOS7210A can store up to 10 types of panel settings, settings complying with
various standards can easily be invoked to conduct tests.

 Provided with a SIGNAL I/O connector and remote-control terminal


Equipped with a SIGNAL I/O connector as standard equipment, to output the test status as
an external I/O and handle starting/stopping of tests and recalling of panel memory. In
addition, the front panel has a remote-control terminal that allows tests to be started/
stopped remotely.

 Incorporating the RS232C interface as standard equipment


The tester features an RS232C interface as standard equipment for easy connection to a
PC, allowing measured data to be obtained.

Option

This Tester features the following options:

RC01-TOS/RC02-TOS remote-control boxes


These remote-control boxes remotely control starting/stopping of the tester when
connected to the REMOTE terminal on the front panel.
The RC01-TOS has one START switch, while the RC02-TOS has two.
For the RC02-TOS, a test starts only when both switches are pressed simultaneously.

 Functions

• OPERATE switch
The TEST switch can be operated only when this switch is set to ON. When it is turned OFF,
a test in progress will be stopped forcibly.

• START switch
When the OPERATE switch is ON and the tester is in ready status, pressing this switch starts
testing.

• STOP switch
This switch is used to shut off the output voltage or cancel a FAIL judgment. It serves the
same function as the STOP switch on the front panel of the tester.

incompatible, have a qualified engineer replace it with an appropriate power cord that is 3
m or less in length. If obtaining a power cord is difficult, contact your Kikusui agent or
distributor.
• The power cord with a plug can be used to disconnect the product from the AC line in an
emergency. Connect the plug to an easily accessible power outlet so that the plug can be
removed from the outlet at any time. Be sure to provide adequate clearance around the
power outlet.
• Do not use the supplied power cord for other devices.

This product is a piece of equipment that conforms to IEC Overvoltage Category II (energy-
consuming equipment that is supplied from a fixed installation).

1 Check that the POWER switch is turned off.

2 Check whether the AC power line is compatible with the input rating of
the product.
The product can receive a nominal power supply voltage in the range of 100 Vac
to 240 Vac (85 Vac to 250 Vac) that has a frequency in the range of 47 Hz to
63 Hz.

3 Connect the power cord to the rear-panel AC inlet, and then connect the
power plug to an outlet that has a ground terminal.

14 TOS7200
Turning ON the Power

WARNING • Before turning ON the power, always confirm that the AC power is within the
allowable line-voltage range indicated on the rear panel of the tester. For more
information, see “Connecting the Power Cord” (p.14).
• To prevent electric shock, be sure to turn OFF the POWER switch before disconnecting
the cable for the SIGNAL I/O or RS232C connector.

1 Confirm that the AC power is within the allowable line voltage range
indicated on the rear panel of the tester.

Disconnecting Test Leads from the DUT .

DESCRIPTION ● Reason that the LOW terminal of the tester is connected to the grounding terminal of
the DUT that has been grounded:
It is appropriate to connect the line terminal (LINE) to the negative (-) side of the power
source and the grounding terminal (EARTH) to the positive (+) side. When testing the
insulation of insulation wires or cables with respect to ground for direct current, connecting
the negative polarity of the power source to the core and the positive polarity to ground will
generally provide smaller measured values than when the reverse polarities are connected.
Thus, the above-noted connection is considered appropriate for the detection of insulation
failures.
For the above reason, the tester connects the negative polarity of the power source to the
HIGH terminal and the positive polarity of the power source to the LOW terminal. Thus, for
insulation resistance testing involving a DUT with one grounded terminal, it is appropriate to
connect the LOW terminal of the tester to the grounding terminal of the DUT, and the HIGH

3 Safety Precautions during Testing

This chapter describes the precautions to be followed in the handling of this tester. When
using the tester, take utmost care to ensure safety.

The tester derivers a 1000 Vdc test voltage which can cause human injury or death.
WARNING
When operating the tester, be extremely careful and observe the cautions, warnings,
and other instructions given in this chapter.

Daily Checking

To avoid accidents, confirm at least the following before starting operation:


• The tester is connected to an earth ground.
• The coating of the test leadwires are free from cracks, fissures, and breakage.
• The test leadwires are not broken.
• When a test is started without the test leadwires connected to each other in the UPPER
OFF condition, a FAIL judgment must not be made.
• When a test is started with the test leadwires short-circuited in a LOWER ON condition, a
FAIL judgment must be made.

Items charged up to dangerous high voltages

WARNING • Possible electric shock. Never touch a test leadwire, the DUT, the HIGH terminal, or the
LOW terminal during a test.
• The vinyl sheaths of the alligator clips of the test leadwires which are supplied
accompanying the Tester have no sufficient insulation for the high test voltages.
Never touch them when in test.

Alligator clip
Never touch this part.

Matters to be sure of after turning-off power


If you have to touch the DUT, test leadwires, HIGH terminal, and/or LOW terminal for re-
connections or other reasons, be sure of the following matter.
The DANGER lamp has gone out.

Warnings for remote control


Be extremely careful when operating the Tester in the remote control mode in which the
dangerous high test voltage is ON/OFF-controlled remotely. Provide protective means as
follows:
• Provide means to assure that the test setup does not become the test voltage is being
delivered by inadvertent operation.
• Provide means to assure that none can touch the DUT, test leadwires, HIGH terminal, and
LOW terminal when the test voltage is being delivered.

20 TOS7200
Warning for Residual High Voltages

WARNING • In Testing, the test leadwire, and DUT are charged to a high voltage. The tester is
equipped with a discharge circuit, but some time is nonetheless required to discharge
them after the output is cut off. There is a danger of electric shock during discharge.
To avoid electric shock, take the utmost care to ensure that the DUT, test leadwire, and
highly charged parts around the output terminal are not touched. If it is necessary to
touch them, be sure to confirm the following:
The DANGER lamp has gone out.
• As soon as the output is cut off, the tester’s discharge circuit starts forced discharging
(discharge function). Do not disconnect the DUT during a test or prior to completion
of discharging.

The discharger function operates until the DUT voltage (or output terminal voltage) becomes
approximately 30 V.

Discharge time
The length of the discharge time varies according to the properties of the DUT and the test
voltage.
Discharge is conducted at a resistance of approximately 25 kΩ in testing.
When no DUT is connected, the tester itself requires this following lengths of time to reduce
the internal capacitor voltage to 30 V.
Test voltage 1000 V: Approximately 0.5 ms
Assuming that a 0.05 μF capacitor is tested, the following lengths of time are required to
reduce the charge to 30 V.
Test voltage 1000 V: Approximately 5 ms
If the DUT is disconnected during a test or before the completion of discharging, assuming
that the DUT has a capacity of 0.01 μF and a parallel resistance of 100 MΩ, approximately 3.5
seconds at 1000 V is required for the DUT to discharge to 30 V.
When the approximate time constant of the DUT is known, the time required for discharging
to 30 V after the output is cut off is calculated as the time constant times the value given
above.

Action When in Emergency

In case of an emergency (such as electric shock hazard or burning of DUT), take the following
actions. You may do either (a) or (b) first. But be sure to do both.
(a) Turn OFF the power switch of the Tester.
(b) Disconnect the AC power cord of the Tester from the AC line receptacle.

TOS7200   21
Prohibited Operations

 Do not turn on/off the power repeatedly


After turning OFF the power switch, be sure to allow 10 seconds or more before turning it
ON again. Do not repeat turning ON/OFF the power switch rapidly –if you do this, the
protectors of the Tester may not be able to render their protective functions properly.
Do not turn OFF the power switch when the tester is delivering its test voltage–you may
do this only in case of emergency.

Dangerous States of Failed Tester

Typical possible dangerous states of the Tester are as shown below and in which cases the
most dangerous situation that “the high test voltage remains delivered and won't be turned off!”
may occur. When this situation has occurred, immediately turn OFF the power switch and
disconnect the AC power cable from the AC line receptacle.
The DANGER lamp does not go out despite you have pressed the STOP switch.
Also when the Tester is in other malfunctioning states than the above, there is a possibility
that the output voltage is delivered irrespective of your proper operating procedure. Never
use the Tester when it has failed.

WARNING • Keep the Tester away of other people until you call our service engineer for help.
• Immediately call your Kikusui distributor/agent. It is hazardous for an unqualified
person to attempt to troubleshoot any Tester problem.

When the lower judgment is activated, making settings such that the value obtained by
dividing the test voltage by the lower resistance exceeds 1.1 mA causes the LOWER LED to
blink, notifying the operator that a test cannot be conducted. In such cases, lower the test
voltage or raise the lower resistance. (p.24)

When the wait time elapses following the start of a test, if an insulation resistance value below
the lower resistance is detected, the tester makes a FAIL judgment and ends the test.

1 Press the UPPER/LOWER key.


This causes the rightmost digit of the resistance meter LED to blink, indicating
that the cursor is positioned at this digit.

2 Check whether the LOWER LED is lit.


If it is, the lower resistance is displayed. If the UPPER LED is lit, the value
displayed is the upper resistance. In such cases, press the UPPER/LOWER key
again to light up the LOWER LED.

3 Press the or key to move the cursor to the digit at which a value is to be set.

4 With the SHIFT key held down, press the or key to change the value.
If necessary, change the value at another digit to achieve the desired lower resistance.

• When both the upper and lower judgments are activated, setting the lower resistance to a
value higher than the upper resistance causes the UPPER LED to blink, notifying the
operator that a test cannot be conducted. (The lower resistance is set to 1.00 MΩ at factory
shipment.) In such cases, lower the lower resistance or raise the upper resistance.
• When the lower judgment is activated, making settings such that the value obtained by
dividing the test voltage by the lower resistance exceeds 1.1 mA causes the LOWER LED to
blink, notifying the operator that a test cannot be conducted. In such a case, lower the test
voltage or raise the lower resistance.

When both the upper and lower judgments are activated, setting the upper resistance to a
value below the lower resistance causes the UPPER LED to blink, notifying the operator that
the test cannot be conducted. (The upper resistance is set to 100 MΩ at factory shipment.)
In such cases, raise the upper resistance, lower the lower resistance, or set the lower
judgment to OFF.

TOS7200 25
Turning the Judgment Function On and Off

The lower limit (LOWER) and upper limit (UPPER) are used to make pass/fail judgment on the
DUT. You can set the lower and upper judgment functions separately. If both judgment
functions are ON, they function as a window comparator.

Turning the lower judgment function on and off

When the lower judgment is set to ON, if the resistance value falls below the lower resistance”,
the tester makes a FAIL judgment and ends the test.
Setting the lower judgment to OFF causes the tester not to return a FAIL judgment, even if the
insulation resistance falls below the lower resistance.
You can turn on or off the lower judgment function with judgment mode (LOWER ON) (p.35) in
the system settings.

1 With the SHIFT key held down, press the VOLT key to enter the system setting.
This causes the leftmost digit of the voltmeter (digit indicated as DOUBLE
ACTION) to blink, indicating that the cursor is positioned at this digit.

2 Press the or key to move the cursor to the LOWER ON position.

3 With the SHIFT key held down, press the or key to change the setting.
The display shows 0 when the lower judgment function is off and 1 when it is on.

4 Press the STOP switch to exit the system setting.

• To measure the resistance value despite the fact that it causes a drop in the test voltage, use
a tester with the lower judgment set to OFF. In such a case, if the output voltage exceeds the
range of ±(2 % of setting + 2 V), the measured voltage value displayed on the voltmeter
blinks, notifying the operator of a drop in the test voltage.
• A lower judgment cannot be made until the wait time has elapsed since the start of a test.

26 TOS7200
Turning the Judgment Function On and Off

Turning the upper judgment function on and off

If the upper judgment is set to ON, when the resistance reaches or exceeds the upper limit, a
FAIL judgment is made, and the test is ended.
To turn on the upper judgment function, hold down SHIFT and press UPPER/LOWER (UPPER
ON). The function toggles between ON and OFF each time you press the key. When set to ON,
the UPPER ON LED lights.

Window comparator function


If both the lower and upper judgment functions are ON, they function as a window
comparator. When the resistance reaches or exceeds the upper limit or reaches or goes lower
than the lower limit, a FAIL judgment is made, and the test is ended.

If you turn on the upper judgment function when a fixed range is selected, the UPPER ON LED
blinks to indicate that you cannot start the test. Set the range to auto, or turn off the upper
judgment function.

TOS7200 27
Setting the Timer Function

When the timer function is set to ON, the duration of testing can be controlled. When the set
test time elapses with the resistance value within the upper and lower resistances during
testing, the tester makes a PASS judgment and ends the test.

If necessary, change the value at another digit to reach the desired test time.

Setting the test time shorter than the wait time with the timer function set to ON causes the
TIMER ON LED to blink, notifying the operator that the test cannot be conducted.

Setting the wait time (WAIT TIME)

In insulation resistance testing, application of the test voltage to the DUT, including a
capacitive DUT, results in a lower insulation resistance measurement than expected until
completion of charge, due to the charge current. To eliminate the effects of the charge current
during lower judgment, the tester provides a wait time extending from the application of the
test voltage to the start of lower judgment.
The wait time can be set in the range of 0.3 s to 10 s (resolution of 0.1 s).

Description of each item

 Double action (DOUBLE ACTION)


When DOUBLE ACTION is set to ON, the START switch must be pressed within
approximately a half-second after the STOP switch is pressed to start testing. Pressing only
the START switch does not start a test; this function requires pressing both the STOP and
START switches, making the procedure more complicated. Nevertheless, this method
offers greater safety.
When operating the tester through the RS232C interface, set this feature to OFF.
7-segment LED Setting
0 DOUBLE ACTION is OFF ← At initialization
1 DOUBLE ACTION is ON

 Momentary (MOMENTARY)
When MOMENTARY is set to ON, the tester performs a test only for as long as the START
switch remains pressed.
Since this operation keeps the operator’s hands confined to the front panel of the tester or
the optional remote control box during a test, it increases the safety of operations. Use of
this function together with the optional RC02-TOS (a remote control box operated using
both hands) further increases safety.
When controlling the tester via the RS232C interface, set this feature to OFF.
7-segment LED Setting
0 MOMENTARY is OFF ← At initialization
1 MOMENTARY is ON

 Fail mode (FAIL MODE)


With FAIL MODE set to ON, a FAIL judgment can only be canceled using the STOP switch
on the front panel. It cannot be cancelled by a stop signal from the remote control.
7-segment LED Setting
0 FAIL MODE is OFF ← At initialization
1 FAIL MODE is ON

 Pass hold (PASS HOLD)


When PASS HOLD is set to ON, a PASS judgment is held until the STOP switch is pressed.
7-segment LED Setting
0 PASS HOLD is OFF ← At initialization
1 PASS HOLD is ON

 Average count (AVG)


The number of averaging times is fixed to “100”.
7-segment LED Setting

 Auto-range (AUTO RANGE)


This setting selects auto-range or fixed range for measurements.
When AUTO RANGE is selected, the tester automatically selects the optimum range for
measurements. When fixed range is selected, the range is selected based on output
voltage and lower resistance.
7-segment LED Setting
0 Fixed range
1 Auto-range ← At initialization

When the fixed range is selected with the upper judgment set to ON, the UPPER ON LED
blinks, notifying the operator that a test cannot be performed. In such cases, select auto-
range or set the upper judgment to OFF.

 Lower judgment (LOWER ON)


When the lower judgment function is set to ON, if the resistance value falls below the
lower resistance, the tester returns a FAIL judgment and ends the test.
When the lower judgment function is set to OFF, the tester does not return a FAIL
judgment, even if the insulation resistance falls below the lower resistance.
7-segment LED Setting
0 Lower judgment is OFF
1 Lower judgment is ON ← At initialization

 Buzzer volume (BUZZER)


The system mode allows the volume of the buzzer sounded in the event of a FAIL
judgment to be set in 10 steps of 0 to 9. The buzzer volume is set to “5” at initialization.
The volume of the buzzer sounded in the event of a PASS judgment is approximately half
of that sounded in the event of a FAIL judgment.

5 Using Terminals and Connectors

This chapter describes use of the terminals and connectors on the front and rear panels of the
tester.

The remote control uses an external signal to turn ON/OFF the high voltage, which may
WARNING
involve great danger. Therefore, thorough safety measures must be taken to ensure
that a high voltage is not accidentally generated and that no one touches the DUT,
high-voltage test leadwire, output terminals, or other parts while high voltage is being
generated. If such measures cannot be taken, do not perform remote control.

When a START signal at the SIGNAL I/O connector is enabled, the START signal has priority
over a START signal at the REMOTE terminal.
A STOP signal through the SIGNAL I/O connector and that through the REMOTE terminal are
accepted equally.

 REMOTE terminal on the front panel


This terminal allows the starting and stopping of a test to be controlled using the optional
remote-control box RC01-TOS or RC02-TOS.

 SIGNAL I/O connector on the rear panel


Inputting a signal to this connector allows a test to be started or stopped and the panel
memory to be recalled. Moreover, output signals through the SIGNAL I/O connector allow
the condition of the tester to be checked.

 ANALOG OUT terminals


This connector outputs a voltage compressed logarithmically that corresponds to the
measured resistance value, in the range of 0 V to 4 V.

 RS232C communication interface connector


You can remotely control the TOS7200 through the RS232C interface. For details, see the
communication interface manual on the included CD-ROM.

TOS7200 39
REMOTE Terminal

The REMOTE terminal is a 6-pin mini-DIN connector on the front panel designed to allow
connection of an optional remote control box RC01-TOS or RC02-TOS.
Connecting a remote control box disables the START switch on the front panel.

CAUTION • To prevent damage to the tester, do not connect any component other than the dedicated
remote control boxes to the REMOTE terminal.
• Install signal wires more than 50 cm from the high voltage test leadwire or DUT. Avoid short-
circuiting the test voltage to a signal wire. If the test voltage is short-circuited to a signal
wire, the entire internal circuit may be destroyed.

Connection of a remote-control box to the tester requires the use of a DIN-Mini DIN adapter.
For DD-5P/6P DIN-Mini DIN adapters [84250], contact your Kikusui distributor/agent.

Performing remote control

1 Turn OFF the POWER switch.

2 Connect the REMOTE terminal and the remote-control box using the
dedicated connection cable (5-pin DIN cable) via the DIN-mini DIN
adaptor.

3 Turn ON the POWER switch.


This allows the input of a start signal from the remote control box and disables the
START switch on the front panel. Note that stop operations may be performed
both by using the STOP switch on the front panel and by transmitting a stop
signal from the remote control box. For more information, see the operation
manual for the optional remote control box.

4 To restore control from the front panel, turn OFF the POWER switch.

5 Remove the dedicated connection cable (6-pin DIN cable) from the
REMOTE terminal on the front panel.

6 Turn ON the POWER switch.


This enables the START switch on the front panel.

• When a START signal at the SIGNAL I/O connector is enabled, the START signal has priority
over a START signal at the REMOTE terminal. A STOP signal through the SIGNAL I/O
connector and that through the REMOTE terminal are accepted equally.
• Connecting or disconnecting a remote control box to or from the REMOTE terminal with the
POWER switch turned ON interrupts high-voltage output.
• When FAIL MODE in the system setting (p.33) has been activated, a FAIL judgment cannot
be canceled by the input of a stop signal via the REMOTE terminal. In such cases, use the
STOP switch on the front panel to cancel the judgment.

cables between them.

Possible damage to the internal circuitry.


CAUTION
• Keep the signal wire at least 50 cm away from the high-voltage test lead and the DUT.
• Do not short the output voltage circuit.
• If you use the TOS7200 with incomplete connections, burn outs caused by heating may
occur when the output is turned on.
• Do not touch the contacts or attach insulators to them. Doing so may reduce the quality of
the contacts or cause other problems.

The SIGNAL I/O connector is a D-SUB 25-pin connector on the rear panel.
This connector is used to start and stop tests, recall panel memory entries, and monitor the
status of the TOS7200.

SIGNAL I/O Connector

 Output signal

Install signal wires more than 50 cm from the high voltage test leadwire, DUT, and the like.
CAUTION
Avoid short-circuiting the test voltage to a signal wire. If the test voltage is short-circuited to a
signal wire, the entire internal circuit may be destroyed.

• When a load is short-circuited, the open-collector output causes the burning of an


output element or printed circuit board. We recommend inserting a protection fuse into
the output.
• When driving an inductive load such as a relay, be sure to connect a diode in parallel with
the coil.
• The tester’s internal control circuit is designed to prevent malfunctions caused by noise
generated by the tester or peripheral equipment. However, connected equipments may
malfunction if bare (unshielded) cables are connected to SIGNAL I/O terminals, because
such cables would make a sort of “antenna” to pick up external noise. Therefore, for
connectors, cables, and the external circuit, use a shielded metal connector, a shielded
cable, and an external circuit provided in a shielded enclosure, respectively. Moreover,
connect each to the cabinet of the tester. This isolates the circuits related to the SIGNAL I/
O connector from the external environment and reduces noise-induced malfunctions.

SIGNAL I/O Connector

Starting a test

To start a test by using the SIGNAL I/O connector, set the ENABLE signal to a low level first.
After a lapse of 10 ms, set the START signal to a low level for 5 ms or more. The READY signal
turns to a high level after the effective START signal has been detected.
When the ENABLE signal is the low level, the START signal of the SIGNAL I/O connector is
enabled. This disables START input via the REMOTE terminal and the START switch on the front
panel. But, stopping is possible using any of the available methods: the STOP switch on the
panel, STOP input via the REMOTE terminal, or the STOP signal.

READY (OUT)

START Signal

Controlling signals

1 Short-circuit from pin 23 (ENABLE) to pin 13 or pin 25 (COM) to set that


signal to the low level.
This disables the START switch on the front panel and START input via the
REMOTE terminal. Note that stop operations may be performed via the STOP
switch on the front panel, the STOP input from the remote control, or the STOP
signal via the SIGNAL I/O connector.

2 Short-circuit from pin 21 (STOP) to pin 13 or pin 25 (COM) to set that signal
to the low level.
This starts a test.

3 Short-circuit pin 22 (STOP) to pin 13 or pin 25 (COM) to set that signal to


the low level.
This stops a test.

4 To cancel remote control, set ENABLE of the start signal to the high level.
This enables the START switch on the front panel and disables the START signal
of the SIGNAL I/O connector.

• Changing the ENABLE level of a start signal shuts off high-voltage output.
• When FAIL MODE is activated in the system settings (p.33), a FAIL judgment cannot be
canceled by stop input from the remote control. In such cases, use the STOP switch on the
front panel to cancel judgment.
• The input terminal is pulled up to +12 V using a resistor. Opening the input terminal
effectively creates a high-level input.
