Fluke Insulation Tester, 1000V Maximum Test Voltage, 2GΩ Insulation Testing Resistance - FLUKE-1587 FC
This insulation tester is a battery-powered handheld instrument designed for insulation resistance measurement and general electrical diagnostics in industrial environments. It combines a digital multimeter capability with insulation testing up to high voltages, providing a single tool for troubleshooting and preventative maintenance across installations that require robust safety ratings and temperature tolerance.
Features and Benefits:
• 1000V output for high-voltage insulation verification
• 1mA short-circuit test current for controlled discharge protection
• 2GΩ maximum insulation range for detecting high-resistance faults
• CAT IV 600V and CAT III 1000V safety categorisation for onsite use
• AA battery operation with 1000h meter life for extended field work
• LCD backlight display for readable measurements in low light
• 1mA short-circuit test current for controlled discharge protection
• 2GΩ maximum insulation range for detecting high-resistance faults
• CAT IV 600V and CAT III 1000V safety categorisation for onsite use
• AA battery operation with 1000h meter life for extended field work
• LCD backlight display for readable measurements in low light
Applications
• Suitable for motor winding insulation condition checks
• Ideal for commissioning cables and switchgear insulation
• Used for preventative maintenance on industrial assets
• Can be used for field verification of high-voltage systems
• Used with temperature compensation workflows for baseline tracking

What insulation test voltages are available?
The instrument provides selectable test voltages including 50V, 100V, 250V, 500V and 1000V depending on the model.
How does the tester behave when measuring live circuits?
The tester inhibits insulation tests if a Terminal voltage greater than 30V is detected to prevent unsafe testing.
What environmental conditions can it operate in?
It operates between -20°C and 55°C and withstands non-condensing humidity up to specified ranges across temperature bands.
How is capacitive discharge handled after testing?
The unit auto-discharges capacitive voltage, achieving discharge times below 0.5s for capacitances of 1μF or less.
What protection exists for current inputs?
The mA input is protected by a 0.44A, 1000V fuse with an IR rating of 10kA to limit fault current.
Supplied with
The Fluke 1587 FC Insulation Multimeter comes with a remote probe, test leads, alligator clips, K-type thermocouple, hard case and user documentation.
