Health care facilities insist on lim line isolation monitor testing to ensure the safety of their patients.

Line isolation monitor testing equipment.

Lim testing isolated power systems equipment. Testing equipment for line isolation monitors. The bender lt3000 line isolation monitor lim and gfci tester plugs into any wall outlet up to 240 v 50 or 60 hz. Additionally this resulted in better monitoring of the operating room s electrical system.

In the standard view the lcd display shows the system voltage. Line isolation monitor testing. The 1996 edition of nfpa changed the code to allow for self testing self calibrating line isolation monitors. A simple pretest confirms the integrity of the isolated power system and to ensure that the system is properly grounded.

Line isolation monitors are continually operating and indicate possible leakage or fault currents from isolated conductor to ground. The lt3000 is an effective and versatile testing instrument for easily fufilling these requirements. A lim provides both visual and audible alarm signals to alert medical staff of the presence of a line to ground fault on connected equipment. This was a cost saving.

Nfpa 99 requires that line isolation monitor lim and ground fault circuit interrupter gfci tests be conducted at regular intervals. The nfpa required annual testing and logging of these lims instead of monthly.
