Megger MIT200 Series Insulation Tester

The MIT200 series insulation tester is one of the smallest insulation testers available on the market today. With options of one, two and three voltage test voltage instruments, the MIT200 instruments offer a range of safety and operation features.

The display offers a combination of digital readout and analog display, using Megger's patented DART display technology, which includes the benefits of an LCD display, such as robust, clear and accurate measurement, with an analog pointer response for evaluating circuit charge and discharge characteristics.

The instrument housing is in tough ABS, designed to withstand the rigors of hard use, and is small enough to drop into your pocket when not in use. Battery requirements are 6 AA batteries of either standard alkaline or nickel metal hydride (NiMH) rechargeable type. A low battery warning indicator gives advanced warning of exhausted batteries.

Automatic continuity testing is performed at 200 mA to ensure compliance with international requirements. There is no need to press the test button. All instruments will measure up to 100Ω on continuity, of which 0-10Ω is performed at greater than 200 mA to meet international electrical testing requirements. Lead null is possible up to 9.99Ω of test lead resistance, ensuring the ability to null fused test leads as well as standard leads.

A continuity buzzer provides a means of rapid cable testing and circuit identification, with voltage protection should you accidentally touch a live circuit. The buzzer operates at a 2Ω threshold.

The instruments offer four configurations providing an ideal solution to most low voltage insulation testing applications. Insulation testing is possible up to 1000MΩ on all ranges. Auto discharge ensures all circuits are safely discharged after testing. 1000 V insulation test ranges have a high voltage warning prior to test voltage being applied.

Every Megger instrument is designed with safety as its primary objective. All instruments meet or exceed the requirements of safety directive IEC 61010 and EN61557 for insulation and continuity testing.

A built-in voltmeter automatically switches in when the instrument is connected to a circuit with an AC or DC voltage greater than 25 V. Circuits in excess of 25 V will generate a voltage warning. Circuits over 50 V will inhibit testing of the insulation, protecting the operator and the instrument from injury or damage.

The MIT200 series has been designed for use on applications up to 600 V CATIII.

The MIT200 series will find applications in electrical contracting, both on domestic and industrial systems, as well as site maintenance and service departments. The MIT200 series of insulation and continuity testers are ideal for testing transformers, motors, generators switchgear, panel building, domestic appliances, power tools, as well as fixed electrical wiring systems.

Their small size and light weight make them ideal for those engineers that need to carry them for extended periods. All instruments meet the requirements of most International Standards including VDE0413 Part 1 and BS7671 (the 16th Edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations).
