Chauvin Arnoux CA6161 Multifunction Electrical Equipment Safety Tester

The Chauvin Arnoux CA6161 Tester is the ideal tool for the inspection and certification of an appliance's electrical safety, whether that be through conformity checking or the regular maintenance of the instrument. The tester can store up to 100,000 test results in its memory, which can then be transferred to a PC through WiFi or USB port.

The CA6161, like the CA6163, can run neccessary tests on electrical testing equipment, and is also able to print Pass/Fail labels. Complete with a colour touch screen that can be used with gloves on, and a keypad for easy use, the user can use these buttons to return to the home screen or the previous screen they were on. The CA6161 will be used frequently by the following personnel:

  • Manufacturers of electrical appliances and equipment for conformity checking
  • Switchboard manufacturers for checking the low-voltage cabinets
  • Industrial maintenance firms needing to check the conformity of the equipment in a fleet or on an installation
  • After sales service companies which repair and check the conformity of appliances or equipment showing anomalies
  • Certification organisations for periodic checks
  • Technical education

The CA6161 can also perform the following measurements, which make it a reliable and solid choice of instrument for industry professionals:

  • 2-wire/4-wire continuity, 0.1A, 0.2A, 10A; voltage drop ∆U
  • 1GΩ insulation
  • 3kV dielectric test
  • Testing of RCD types, A, AC, B, B+, F and EV
  • Loop impedance and line impedance
  • Direct leakage current
  • Differential leakage current
  • Single-phase and three-phase power values
  • Measurement on current clamp
  • Phase rotation test
  • Discharge time
