The SCHLEICH MODULAR CONCEPT
Custom-designed testing systems
Based on the SCHLEICH MODULAR CONCEPT, the GLP2-MODULAR Testing systems offer a wide range of combinations of diverse safety and functional testing methods. Your specific testing requirements determine the testing methods you select from a large pool of options.
Whether one testing method or a multitude – you determine the configuration! This way your GLP2-MODULAR For example, it can be configured as a specialized high-voltage tester with many test outputs. For more complex testing tasks, you might need a combination of all possible test methods.
The SCHLEICH MODULAR CONCEPT of GLP2-MODULAR Testing systems allow you to assemble precisely the testing equipment you need. This is achieved not only by installing various individual testing devices in an oversized test rack, but also by integrating all tests into a compact, modular housing. The housing size is determined by the type and scope of the various tests.
The flexibility of GLP2-MODULAR Test systems are not only defined by their housing, but also by the number and arrangement of the test device's connections. With 19" containers, and especially with 19" industrial cabinets, the measuring connections can be mounted on all sides of the test device. This allows us to meet all spatial requirements.
Every testing device embodies the experience gained from thousands of installations. At SCHLEICH, this experience is consistently, passionately, and without compromise applied.
That is "customer-centric technology."
Configuration Examples
Your individual requirements define the case size
Despite their very compact design, these testers offer a wide range of testing options in a single housing. The combination of testing methods based on the SCHLEICH MODULAR CONCEPT therefore also incorporates a modular housing design.
Depending on your requirements, your application can be housed in a compact benchtop unit, a 19-inch rack-mount unit, a 19-inch enclosure, or a 19-inch industrial cabinet. To ensure the proper and safe installation of the test equipment, we use custom-fit enclosure components from renowned German manufacturers as well as components manufactured in-house.
Automatic test method switching and mechatronics
SCHLEICH testing equipment has proven itself tens of thousands of times in daily use. It is among the most reliable products on the market and offers high utility through outstanding performance and accuracy.
To save time, all connections on the test object can be made using a contact adapter. The tester then performs the specified tests fully automatically without any manual intervention. This is made possible by SCHLEICH’s signature automatic test method switching.
For test objects with multiple connections, it is more cost-effective to connect all of the test object’s connections to the test equipment immediately. The test equipment then performs all tests between all connection points fully automatically. This approach reduces the required clock rate and thus the cost of a test. Switching between the various connections is achieved using flexible switching matrices.
To minimize the time required to connect a test object with multiple connections, we implement the frequently requested dual- or multi-station systems. In these systems, loading and unloading take place at one station while testing is performed simultaneously at the other stations. This approach allows for highly economical results, even with complex and extensive testing.
Test method switching
Depending on the type and scope of the testing methods, we offer a variety of switching options. These ensure a quick and automatic changeover between different testing methods. Since the voltage differences between the testing methods can be very large, safety is our top priority when switching. A resistance test at 3 V is applied to the device under test just as reliably as a high-voltage test at 6000 V. This protects both your employees and the test object. And we do so without compromise! That's why we use only high-quality components for switching devices and matrices, components that have proven themselves tens of thousands of times over, either from our own production or from renowned manufacturers. More information
Dies
We offer the right relay matrix for virtually any application. The matrices differ in the number of connections and the test voltage they can switch. A matrix must switch 6000 V just as safely and reliably as it does millivolt signals. That is exactly why our engineers developed these matrices. The matrices are designed for two- and four-wire applications. They can be daisy-chained to increase the number of connections as needed. Matrices with more than 100 connection points are not uncommon. The same applies to matrices as to test method switches: only the highest quality components are used. More information
Station switching
Instead of using two or more test units, station switching can be a cost-effective alternative, for which we also impose the highest safety requirements. While testing is underway at one test station, the other test station is being charged or discharged. In doing so, the operator inevitably comes into contact with terminals and connecting cables. Touching the terminals and connecting cables poses a potential electrical hazard. Therefore, the test leads to the stations where no test is currently in progress must be safely disconnected. In addition, it is recommended to ground the connections to the test object. More information
Mechatronics | Script Control
In addition to the hardware, the software also offers tremendous flexibility. Using the built-in script commands, you can implement additional PLC functions in the test device. Just as with a PLC, you can read inputs, set outputs, and create logical connections.
The economic advantage lies in the direct control of mechatronic functional sequences. You can activate valves, check limit switches, evaluate measured values yourself, and much more. The test device is thus capable of generating additional functional sequences before, during, and after the test. This is ideal for custom test setups or for integration into automated manufacturing.

Test Methods
Protective conductor resistance test
The test of the protective conductor is carried out with an electronically controlled, constant test current. From the voltage drop at the protective conductor and the flowing current, the test device calculates the protective conductor resistance. This must not exceed the maximum resistance specified in the standards. The operator uses a test probe to scan the protective conductor connections to be tested one after the other on the test object. The test is carried out between the PE contact in the test socket and the test probe. more information
Insulation Resistance Test
cold or warm
The insulation test is carried out with an electronically controlled, constant test voltage. From the voltage drop over the insulation and the flowing current, the test device calculates the insulation resistance. This must not fall below the minimum resistance specified in the standards. The insulation resistance can be measured between all electrical conductors (devices of protection class I) as well as between the electrical conductors and insulated housing parts (devices of protection class II). The operator uses the test probe to scan the housing parts to be tested one after the other. At the end of the test, the test object is always discharged. more information
DC High-Voltage Test
cold or warm
The insulation test is performed using an electronically controlled, constant high voltage. During the test, the test current must not exceed a specified maximum value. If the current rises above the maximum value, the test is automatically terminated. At the end of the test, the test object is always discharged. More information
AC High-Voltage Test
cold or warm
The insulation test is performed using an electronically controlled, constant high voltage. During the test, the test current must not exceed a specified maximum value. If the current exceeds the maximum value, the test is automatically terminated. At the end of the test, the test object is always discharged. More information
Functional test
1- to 3-phase
The functional test of your test object is performed under operating voltage based on the current draw, cos φ, and/or power consumption of the test object. Target values and ± tolerances can be specified for each measured parameter. If the electrical measurement is within the tolerance, the test result is OK (OK). The test voltage for the functional test at 5 A is generated electronically in the test device.
The 5 A test is specifically designed for measuring very low currents. This allows, for example, the measurement and evaluation of very low power levels in LED lights. The test voltage for the 16 A functional test is not taken directly from the mains supply of the test device, but is fed in via a separate test voltage supply line on the rear of the device. This allows for the application of different test voltage levels.
Leakage current test
1- to 3-phase
The leakage current test is carried out during the functional test. It is checked whether the leakage current from the conductors L+N to PE (earth leakage current) or to insulated housing parts (housing leakage current) is not too high. The leakage current must not exceed the maximum current specified in the standards. To test the housing leakage current, the operator uses the probe to scan the housing parts to be tested one after the other. more information
The automatic testing process
The standard GLP2-MODULAR It utilizes the streamlined Windows® Embedded operating system. You always have all relevant test results in view. The clear presentation of the test process enables structured and highly efficient work.
In automatic mode, the tests are performed semi- or fully automatically. The tests between all measuring points connected to the object under test are carried out fully automatically, step by step.
If, for example, the operator has to manually scan individual measuring points on the test object with a test probe, an interruption occurs with a message message. This lasts until he has completed his manual task. After that, the test is fully automatic again. The test results are automatically evaluated and clearly displayed.
The test sequence is edited by simply adding or removing test steps. This allows the test procedure to be optimally adapted to different requirements. Each individual test step can be configured via test parameters.
The comprehensive integrated user management ensures that only authorized persons can make these changes.
The input
To edit the test steps, simply select them. The test parameters can be easily modified, and the test sequence can be adapted to the test task. All entries are automatically checked for validity. There is no need to use a cumbersome test plan editor. For each test parameter, informative explanations can be displayed by clicking the question mark button.
The test parameters are visible to all operators, but can only be changed by authorized personnel.
The data
GLP2 stores test plans and test results either locally or on a shared network drive on the company network. We recommend connecting the test devices to the network.
This has the following advantages:
- All test devices on the network access the same test plans.
- All testers test according to the same specifications.
- Centralized data storage for all inspection systems within a global network makes it easier for you to ensure the quality of your products worldwide. Regardless of location.
- Test plans can be viewed and edited on PC workstations regardless of the testing equipment.
- Test results can be displayed, analyzed, and printed at computer workstations.
The scripts
The scripting language provides an easy-to-understand and very powerful tool for customizing and tailoring the GLP2 to specific needs.
This offers the following advantages:
- Customizations by the user
- Sequence control, as in a PLC
- Adaptation to complex barcode content
- and much more
The manual check
The GLP2-MODULAR It provides you with all integrated test methods individually – as if you had a separate test device for each test method.
No test plan is required for the unique manual mode. The operator simply selects the desired test method and starts the test device.
The most important measured values are displayed in large digits. Other settings are also clearly visualized. This function is unique and ideal for testing in the laboratory or at the repair shop.
Manual mode
Select the desired test method and start the measurement. To end the measurement, stop the measurement again.
No comparison with limit values takes place. Instead, the measured values and the set test conditions are continuously displayed.
During the ongoing measurement, the test parameters can be adjusted via the touchscreen. This is a significant advantage, as it ensures your test object is continuously exposed to the test conditions. You can thoroughly test it and subject it to stress for as long as you need.
Not only are the test conditions, such as test voltage and test current, changeable, but the displayed actual values and their physical units can also be switched according to the desired evaluation.
For test instruments with multiple test ports, the test methods can be switched to the available test ports, similar to an automated test sequence. Manual measurements can therefore be performed between any of the available test ports. Test ports are conveniently selected via the touchscreen display. Switching between them is accomplished via the integrated relay matrix.
The GLP2-MODULAR with technology package
The GLP2 expansion with the technology package takes full advantage of the extensive capabilities of Windows® to the fullest. The display appears on an external touchscreen monitor, with the screen layout dynamically adapting to the monitor’s resolution. The user interface is even more intuitive and clearly organized than the standard version. A full-featured PC is used to enhance performance.
The proven measurement hardware and precise measurement technology are identical to those of the standard model. The technology package represents an upgrade in terms of usability.
Based on the Windows® PC, the large touchscreen, and the resulting technical possibilities, the user interface is even more informative and user-friendly than before. Our engineers have consistently utilized all the modern features of the Windows® operating system. The result is a clear, uncluttered presentation that is truly impressive.
In addition to the standard software’s features, a test plan revision function—including comprehensive test plan history management—has been integrated. New or modified test plans can be approved in accordance with the dual-control principle. Test plans are approved by a reviewer, not by the person who created them.
The Test Report
All test results can be printed on the modern standard report either immediately after the test or at a later time. The language of the report can be selected individually before it is generated. Reporting is performed in accordance with IEC 61934. The standard languages available are German, English, Chinese, Danish, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Slovenian, Spanish, Czech, and Hungarian.
Printout on paper
To the GLP2-MODULAR Any Windows® 10 compatible printer can be connected. As is standard in Windows® , a single click on the printer icon is all it takes to automatically print all measurement results.
Create a PDF file
On request, this generates GLP2-MODULAR A PDF file that is saved to a USB drive, the internal hard drive, or any network path. Saving to the USB drive is fully automatic and occurs in the root directory. No copying and pasting in Windows® is required.
Generating a CSV file (optional)
Optionally, the GLP2-MODULAR After a test run, a CSV file can also be generated. The file is saved to any network path. The data transferred to the CSV file is freely configurable and can be adapted to your needs.
The GLP2-MODULAR in the network
Test plans and test results can be stored locally or, alternatively, on a central network drive. This ensures a high level of data security and facilitates the seamless exchange of test plans between different testing systems.
The GLP2-MODULAR It is network-enabled right out of the box. This feature provides the ideal platform for collecting, managing, analyzing, and distributing information.
The GLP2-MODULAR Furthermore, with a complementary technology package, it offers the possibility of integration into a complex corporate domain.
The test plans and test results are stored in a secure and reliable file system on a shared network drive.
GLP2-MODULAR Testing systems with integrated technology packages can also be networked with ERP, PPS, MES, and CAQ systems. We offer a wide range of tried-and-tested, configurable solutions to meet this requirement.
network outage
Each testing device automatically saves local copies of the current server test plan database so that it can continue operating in the event of a network outage.
In the event of a network outage, the local test plans are used and the test results are saved locally on the test device.
Once the network connection is restored, the testing device automatically sends the test results back to the server, ensuring that the server database is up to date.
Complex global network for testing equipment with technology package
The testing devices can be operated in network topologies of any complexity. You can install an unlimited number of testing devices at various company locations worldwide and connect them to the central network drive. Our experience in the global networking of testing devices gives you the assurance that you will maintain the same product quality regardless of the production location. Problems with revising test plans are now a thing of the past.
Of course, all tasks related to test plans, printing, labeling, and statistics can also be performed on the individual test devices. However, to avoid disrupting the production process, it makes sense to use separate workstations for these tasks in networked systems.
The editor&printer PC software can therefore be installed on various workstations.
Label templates can also be stored centrally on a network drive. The testing device then loads the appropriate template based on the test plan and prints the labels after the test. Storing the templates centrally on the network drive ensures that all connected testing devices always use the same label template.
If remote maintenance is necessary, we can temporarily connect to your network and access the specific testing device directly. We can see the device’s screen in real time. With your permission, we would also have access to the mouse and keyboard. These capabilities are ideal for providing expert support. Of course, remote maintenance is only possible with your authorization.
PC software edit or print
Edit test plans
Test plans are often created directly at the testing device. Alternatively, test plans can also be managed, edited, and saved on a PC using the free editor&printer software included with the package. Creating test plans on a PC has the advantage of not disrupting ongoing production. Work can continue at the testing devices. The software interface on the PC is similar to that on the testing device. Therefore, operation is virtually identical and thus easy to learn.
The software is used in two modes:
- Data transfer via USB flash drive | Offline operation
- Data exchange via PC network | Online operation
Printing Test Results
The software makes it easy to create and print test reports. To do this, import the test results from a testing device, filter them according to the tests you want to print, and generate detailed, easy-to-read reports.

Areas of application
The GLP2-MODULAR It is designed for a wide range of applications and can be precisely tailored to your needs through a variety of configurable options. You get exactly the testing device that is ideally suited to your daily work.
Manual inspection | Inspection station – Repair station – Laboratory
The unique manual mode allows you to apply all test methods integrated into the tester directly by hand whenever needed. No prior configuration of the tests is required. Simply select the desired test method and start your test. Similar to a multimeter, the software always displays the current measurement values. This allows you to evaluate your test object immediately and in full detail.
Long-term analyses spanning hours, days, and weeks can also be carried out without any problems in this operating mode.
Semi-automatic inspection | Manufacturing
A typical test in production can be carried out manually via test probes or partially and fully automatically. The GLP2-MODULAR is precisely suitable for these applications thanks to its flexibility and convenient user guidance. For the testing of different test objects, the GLP2-MODULAR almost any number of test sequences can be stored. These can be started directly via the integrated touch display, an external PC keyboard or via a barcode scanner.
If necessary, the testing device can generate a label immediately after the test is complete. In addition, a wide range of job data can be stored and printed on the SCHLEICH standard report along with the test results.
Fully Automated Testing | Mass Production
Integrated into a fully automated production line/plant, the inspection is carried out fully automatically without manual intervention. As a rule, the GLP2-MODULAR then in one of the two modes:
Mode 1:
The GLP2-MODULAR The system is fully remotely controlled by a plant control unit. The higher-level control unit specifies all test parameters or selects the test sequence stored in the test system. The contacting and all mechanical processes are carried out by the plant control unit. As soon as the plant control unit has prepared the test, it starts the test device. After the test is completed, the system transmits the results. GLP2-MODULAR the test results are sent back to the plant control system.
Mode 2:
The GLP2-MODULAR Alternatively, an additional PLC controls all mechanical processes in the test cell. The test device also communicates with a plant control system or an MES system.
Project Examples
Fully automated, robot-controlled lighting fixture testing station
Price-sensitive products are increasingly being manufactured in automated production cells. The illustration shows a production cell with a central robot and four processing/inspection stations.
Production is carried out by a robot that performs various handling and screwing tasks. In between, interim inspections are conducted at the various workstations using a central inspection device.
Once the luminaire has been fully assembled, the final inspection is conducted. During this process, all safety, functional, and quality tests are GLP2-MODULAR fully automatically by GLP2-MODULAR . Cameras with different lenses and aperture settings are used to inspect the quality of the LED modules, which are often very bright. This is the only way to detect differences in brightness and color between different LEDs.
Testing system for electronic assemblies
The test device is used for the electrical safety testing of electronic assemblies. For this purpose, the assemblies are inserted into a test adapter. The test adapter is equipped with a hold-down device and a mounting plate with integrated spring contacts. The spring contacts serve to electrically connect the test object and to the test device. Closing the test hood presses the test object against the spring contacts.
The test methods integrated into the test device are automatically switched to the spring contacts in the test adapter via a relay switching matrix. The matrix is flexible enough to allow testing between any spring contacts or groups of spring contacts. This is freely programmable from test step to test step.
- Test adapter with spring contacts

Testing system for electric and gas stoves
Electric and gas stoves are tested in a test area secured by a light curtain. Due to the size of the work area, a large additional monitor is connected to the GLP2 for optimal visibility.
In addition to performing safety and functional tests, the GLP2-MODULAR controls a leak tester. For safety reasons, leak tests on gas stoves are mandatory to ensure that gas lines, control switches, and valves are free of leaks.
The results of the leak test are stored, along with the electrical test results, in both quantitative and qualitative formats. This ensures that all target and actual values for a tested stove are available for future statistical analyses, test reports, or complaint handling.
High-voltage testing system for rail vehicles
Testing rail vehicles can be literally electrifying. Electrifying because it involves test voltages of up to 80 kV! And, of course, high test currents as well. For insulation tests on rail vehicles, high-power voltage sources are therefore required.
But the design of the high-voltage tester is also rather unusual compared to standard laboratory practice, because who would want to stand right next to an 80-kV system? For this obvious reason—and often due to space constraints—a split-type unit is the ideal design for such applications.
- High-voltage transformer rated at 80,000 Vrms
- Insulation of the transformer with insulating oil
- Voltage measurement via an integrated high-voltage divider
- Test current up to 200 mA
