Schneider IMD IM9 Insulation and Earth Fault Mnitoring Relay

Schneider IMD IM9 insulation monitoring device monitors the insulation resistance of an IT network by injecting a DC signal between this network and the ground.

  • Measures the insulation resistance of the network
  • Detects an insulation fault according to the set alarm threshold
  • Closes or opens a contact relay in case of an alarm
  • Equipped with a manual auto-test
