AERL EarthGuard Ground Fault Detection - EG-600:
The EG-600 is a new product from AERL and is made in Brisbane Australia, which supersedes the previous model EG-300.
The EarthGuard EG-600 is a standalone device for integration with approved third-party controllers, power conversion equipment and battery systems. Utilizing proprietary detection techniques, the AERL EarthGuard Insulation Monitoring Device simultaneously monitors up to two circuits (20 – 600Vdc) for conductor insulation degradation.
The EarthGuard EG-600 monitoring device satisfies the earth fault detection requirements of both AS/NZS 5033:2014 & AS/NZS 5139:2019 with onboard audio/visual alarms, and alarm relay outputs for external fault indication.
The AERL EG-600 allow for PV arrays up to 600V (not a major thing for Victron), and also have two separate monitoring channels (either two PV, or one PV and one battery side).
AERL EG-600 Features:
– 20 – 600V PV Monitoring Range
– Dual Channel Monitoring
– High Accuracy Detection
– Audio & Visual Alarms
– Signal Indication Relays
