Kyoritsu KEW 3021 Digital Insulation & Continuity Testers
The Kyoritsu KEW 3021 is a compact, four-range digital insulation and continuity tester engineered for low-voltage installations up to 600 V. Driven by a microprocessor, it delivers selectable DC test voltages (125 V, 250 V, 500 V, 1000 V) for insulation checks and a DC continuity test with up to 200 mA of test current. Its AUTO DISCHARGE feature safely bleeds residual charge from capacitive circuits, while visible and audible live-circuit warnings enhance user safety during operation.
Equipped with a back-lit LCD and 30-segment bar graph, the KEW 3021 provides clear trend indication even in dim environments. It features zero-Ω ADJ to null test-lead resistance, comparator modes with high/low alarms, and onboard memory to store up to 99 insulation readings. A safety interlock (“Safety” key) prevents accidental selection of higher test voltages, and AUTO POWER OFF conserves battery life after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Weighing just 600 g (including batteries) and outfitted with a neck strap, this tester is ideal for field engineers, electricians, and maintenance teams performing routine insulation audits, continuity checks, and preventive maintenance. Its rugged IP40 housing and quick auto-range functionality streamline inspections on switchboards, motors, transformers, and cable assemblies in industrial or commercial settings.

- Zero-Ω ADJ. to null test-lead/fuse resistance.
- Data hold (~5 s) and memory (up to 99 readings).
- Back-lit LCD with 30-segment bar graph.
- Comparator with HI/LO alarms (LED and buzzer).
- Live-circuit warning (LED and buzzer).
- Safety key interlock for high-voltage ranges.
- AUTO POWER OFF after ~15 min of inactivity.
- Test lead with remote control switch (no output unless connected).
- Robust IP40 housing, neck strap, user-changeable probes.
