Description
The new 5 kV insulation resistance testers from Megger are
designed specifically to assist you with the testing and maintenance
of high voltage electrical equipment. The case is incredibly rugged
and easy to carry, being made of tough polypropylene and achieving
an ingress protection rating of IP54. In addition, the model number
is marked on both the top and side of the case for ease of
identification in stores or vehicles.
The instrument has a large
easy to read backlit LCD display making it equally suitable for use
in both bright sunlight and poorly lit environments. Information
displayed includes resistance, voltage, leakage current,
capacitance, battery status and time constant. In addition, the
elapsed time of the test is displayed constantly
removing the need for separate timers.
The instrument can test
when being powered by the mains or its internal rechargeable
battery, a great benefit
when site conditions are unknown or long term testing is required.
The controls of the
instrument are clear and unambiguous and a "quick start" guide is
included in the lid of the instrument removing the need to carry
bulky manuals under site conditions.
The instrument is fitted
with a guard terminal to enhance accuracy. The guard test lead is
included as standard with the instrument.
To further enhance the
flexibility of the instrument the MIT510 has the facility to set the
test voltage in steps from 250 V to 5000 V avoiding the expense of
several insulation resistance testers to meet your application
needs.
The IR tester is designed
to meet the highest safety standards and meets the requirements of
EN61010. In addition, the instrument measures the voltage at the
terminals and if this is above 50V then the instrument will
display the high voltage warning and inhibit testing. At the end of
the test the instrument will automatically discharge the energy
transferred to the equipment during the test phase. |
