Work during daylight hours
without blocking panels
Proprietary Hioki technologies let you make
safe, accurate measurements, even during
daylight hours.
You’ll work more efficiently thanks to ability
to perform inspections that previously could
only be carried out at night during the day.
Automatically send data
to a tablet or smartphone
When you make measurements using an
instrument with Bluetooth® wireless technol-
ogy, measurement data can be automati-
cally sent to a paired device.
This functionality is useful when you need
to repeatedly measure and record readings
for a large number of locations.
Enjoy the benefits of simple measure-
ment and easy-to-understand results
Place the probes in contact with the termi-
nals. Clamp with the current sensor. Press a
button… There’s nothing complicated about
the measurement process.
In the event of an anomaly, the instrument
will notify you by displaying a warning mark,
turning the display backlight red, and beep-
ing. (Functionality varies by model.)

Measurement targets
Bypass diode open fault and
short fault testing Measurement targets
• Bypass route open and short states • Insulation resistance of strings
• Bypass route resistance, • No-load voltage of PV systems
no-load voltage, and short current of up to 1000 V (polarity check)

This type of testing is important since an open fault could lead
to a fire!
• Detects bypass diodes with open faults without any need to cover the panel—even when it’s
exposed to sunlight—using the first technology of its kind in the world
• Easily complete tests using the strings in the junction box
• Each string is measured for 2 sec. or less, after which all measured values are displayed at once
The ability to make measurements during the day streamlines
work since there’s no need to short P and N terminals
• Includes functionality designed specifically for PV systems to allow measurement free from
the effects of panels that are generating electricity. The instrument can make accurate, safe
measurements without the need to short terminals. (However, terminals should be shorted when
making measurements at night.)
• Measured values are displayed 4 seconds after the start of measurement
• The instrument applies 1000 V DC, which is the optimal voltage to use to perform no-load voltage inspections

Free yourself from the need to jot down handwritten notes
since the instrument sends data to your smartphone
• Measure voltages of up to 2000 V DC* to accommodate inspections of photovoltaic equipment,
which continues to evolve rapidly (*with P2000)
• Tough enclosure features durable jaws (the current sensor portion of the instrument), an operating
temperature range of -25°C to 65°C, IP54 dust and water resistance (while in storage, or when
measuring the current in an insulated conductor), and support for CAT IV (600 V)/CAT III (1000 V)
measurement
• Once measured values stabilize, the displayed values are automatically held and sent to your smartphone
• Get a warning of excessive input or a short during continuity check operation with a beeping
sound and red LED backlight
Safety-oriented design prevents short-circuit accidents by
eliminating current terminals
• Measure voltages of up to 2000 V DC* to accommodate inspections of photovoltaic
equipment, which continues to evolve rapidly (*with P2000)
• Tough enclosure features a drop-proof design that can withstand a fall onto concrete from a height
of 1 m, an operating temperature range of -25°C to 65°C, and support for CAT IV (600 V)/ CAT
III (1000 V) measurement
• Choose from an extensive range of probe tips, including alligator clips and breaker pins (optional)
• A positive/negative detection function warns the operator of mistaken polarity with a beeping
sound and red LED backlight

IP67 protection for robust performance in the field Single-instrument solution for recording and

Ideal for harmonic analysis of power conditioner output

In addition to a dustproof and waterproof enclosure, the FT6031
features faster setup and cleanup than conventional instruments
• International protection marking IP67 means the enclosure is dustproof and waterproof
• One instrument provides grounding resistance measurement capability for Class A through D installations
• An improved grounding rod design and cord winder make setup and cleanup easier than ever
• Broad measurement range of 0 to 2000 Ω
• Record data including voltage, current, power, harmonics, and flicker simultaneously along a
single time axis (Flicker recording available in future firmware update)
• Capture all power anomalies, including instantaneous outages, voltage drops, and frequency
fluctuations, while simultaneously recording trend data
• Quick Set: Easy-to-understand on-screen guide for measurement procedures
• Bundled PQ ONE application software makes it easy to create reports
