BENDER IRDH275B-435 – Insulation Monitoring Device | IRDH275 Series
The BENDER IRDH275B-435 is a precision insulation monitoring device (IMD) engineered for continuous ground-fault detection in AC, DC, and AC/DC ungrounded (IT) power systems. Designed for mission-critical environments where unplanned shutdowns are unacceptable, this device provides real-time insulation resistance monitoring with configurable alarm thresholds — enabling predictive maintenance before a fault escalates into a system failure.
As a core component of BENDER’s IRDH275 platform, the IRDH275B-435 is the preferred choice of procurement engineers specifying protection for medical facilities, renewable energy installations, marine systems, and industrial process control networks.

System Architecture & Signal Flow
The IRDH275B-435 injects a low-level DC measuring voltage between the IT system conductors and earth (PE). The device continuously measures the resulting leakage current to calculate insulation resistance (Riso). When Riso falls below the configured pre-alarm or main alarm threshold, the corresponding relay de-energizes and an alarm is triggered on the LCD display and via RS-485. The measuring circuit is galvanically isolated and does not interfere with system operation or sensitive medical/instrumentation loads.
Typical wiring topology: L1/L2 (or +/−) → IRDH275B-435 measuring terminals → PE reference → relay outputs to PLC/BMS → RS-485 to supervisory system.

Technical FAQ
Q: Can the IRDH275B-435 monitor both AC and DC IT systems simultaneously?
A: Yes. The device is designed for AC, DC, and combined AC/DC IT systems within its rated voltage range.
Q: What is the difference between IRDH275B-435 and IRDH275B-7?
A: The “-435” suffix denotes the specific firmware/hardware variant with RS-485 communication and wide-range power supply. Consult the BENDER datasheet for full variant comparison.
Q: Is the device compatible with Modbus RTU?
A: Yes. The RS-485 port supports both BENDER BMS protocol and Modbus RTU, enabling direct integration with most industrial PLCs and SCADA systems.
Q: Does the IRDH275B-435 require periodic calibration?
A: BENDER recommends annual functional verification per IEC 61557-8. The device includes self-monitoring to detect internal faults between scheduled checks.
Q: Can I use this device in a system with frequency converters (VFDs)?
A: Yes, with appropriate coupling/decoupling network (e.g., BENDER AGH series). Consult application engineering for VFD-heavy installations.
