DESCRIPTION
The 5- and 15-kV Megohm-meters are high-voltage, line-
operated instruments. They provide a continuously
variable test voltage for highly sensitive insulation-
resistance measurements of all types of electrical
equipment and power cable.
The instruments are designed to withstand harsh field
conditions, and feature tough, impact-resistance casing,
removable lids and adjustable carrying straps. For
complete portability, there is ample room in each case to
store cables and the instruction manual.
APPLICATIONS
The units are suitable for dielectric absorption and step-
voltage testing. Two models are available:
The 5-kV Megohmmeter measures up to 100,000 MΩ;
provides output from 250 volts to 5 kV, with direct reading
up to 50,000 MΩ at 2.5 kV.
The 15-kV Megohmmeter provides direct reading
measurements up to 100,000 MΩ at 5 kV and up to
200,000 MΩ at 10 kV, with a multiplying factor for all
other voltages up to 15 kV.
The 15-kV model also features an internal voltage
stabilizer that may be activated for improved measurement
under extreme field conditions. Separate on/off controls
are provided for power and high voltage, and a red light
indicates when high voltage is on.
