FEATURES & BENEFITS
THE FIRST PATENTED SAFETY TESTING INSTRUMENT
WITH AN ENHANCED GRAPHIC LCD DISPLAY
This provides the operator with complete test setup and results in an
easy-to-use interface which eliminates the need to decipher cryptic
abbreviations. The graphic display makes testing safer, easier and more
reliable than ever before.
OMNIA, a complete all-in-one system, combines all of the most common
electrical safety tests required by safety agencies (AC Hipot, DC Hipot,
IR, Ground Bond/Continuity, Line Leakage and Functional Run tests) into
a single instrument which takes up less rack space and enables a single
DUT connection. OMNIA is also available in 4-in-1 and 5-in-1 versions
for those who do not need to perform all of the above mentioned tests.
FEATURE
Built-in Cal-Alert ™
BENEFIT
This feature automatically alerts the user when the
instrument is due for re-calibration. This eliminates the
need for manual tracking of calibration dates.
FEATURE
Dual function Ground Bond and Ground Continuity
BENEFIT
The user can select whether to perform a high current
Ground Bond test or a low current Ground Continuity test.
The Ground Continuity test can be run independently or it
can be performed simultaneously with the Hipot test. Both
tests can be run through the optional built-in scanner.
FEATURE
Exclusive SmartGFI™ function
BENEFIT
The SmartGFI™ function provides maximum protection to
the user. The circuit monitors the ground configuration of
the DUT and automatically sets up the GFI circuit for the
user. The circuit detects current between the high voltage
output and earth ground. If excessive leakage is detected,
the high voltage is immediately shut down.
FEATURE
Optional printer port
BENEFIT
This option allows direct connection of OMNIA to a
printer. The user can select between several different print
modes and all printouts are time and date stamped.
FEATURE
Built-in Security settings
BENEFIT
This allows the instrument to be setup for different levels
of access to the setup programs. Users can setup passwords
for restricted access to certain parts of the menu and the
instruments operation.
FEATURE
Storage of up to 50 setups with 30 steps per setup
BENEFIT
A real benefit for manufacturers that test different
products. Each setup can store up to 30 steps, which can be
configured to perform any of the safety tests. Each setup
can be stored and named any combination of alphanumeric
characters so it can be easily identified for recall.
FEATURE
Exclusive prompt and hold function
BENEFIT
OMNIA allows users to setup prompts in the test cycle so
that the test can be paused. During the pause a user-
configured message is displayed instructing the test
operator on the action they need to perform before
continuing the test. This is a very convenient feature for
applications where test leads or probes need to be moved
or when DUT switches need to be activated as part of the
test cycle.
FEATURE
Built-in Real Current measurement
BENEFIT
OMNIA allows for simultaneous monitoring of Real and
Total current in AC Hipot mode. This allows the user to
monitor reactive and real current on a single screen.
FEATURE
Patented RAMP HI and CHARGE LO testing
BENEFIT
The RAMP HI feature allows the user to set a higher trip
point during the ramp cycle and allows for quicker
charging of the DUT without nuisance tripping. This
increases throughput which allows for more effective DC
Hipot testing. The CHARGE LO provides the user with the
capability to ensure that the device under test is connected
correctly by detecting a minimum level of current during
the initial application of voltage to the DUT.
FEATURE
Built in Veri-Chek ™ menu
BENEFIT
Regular verification is required by some agencies to
validate that the instrument is functioning correctly. The
Veri-Chek feature, by prompting the user through the
correct steps, allows for quick and easy validation. This is
a built-in feature that eliminates the need and additional
cost of having to use external boxes for verification.
FEATURE
Digitally controlled arc detection system
BENEFIT
Most Hipot testers can detect catastrophic arc conditions
because they usually exceed the current trip level. Arc
detection allows the operator to select whether low-level
arcs should be detected and provides the operator with
the ability to digitally select and program multiple
sensitivity levels.
FEATURE
Four wire measurement and milliohm offset
BENEFIT
The four-wire measurement (Kelvin Method) technique
eliminates test lead resistance when using the standard test
leads. The milliohm-offset function allows the use of
longer test leads and test fixtures without compromising
test results in the Ground Bond mode.
FEATURE
Ramp up and down
BENEFIT
This feature allows the user to setup the instrument for
gradual increase and decrease of test voltage to avoid
damage to DUT’s that are sensitive to rapid changes
in voltage.
FEATURE
True Line Leakage test (OMNIA 6)
BENEFIT
OMNIA 6 performs all 8 Line Leakage tests as called out
in IEC specifications. All measurements can be made
without using an external isolation transformer. The
OMNIA 6 can also be used to perform Applied Part and
Enclosure Leakage tests.
