Megger MIT485/2 Insulation Continuity Tester with Bluetooth, 50/100/250/500 V-

Megger MIT485/2 Insulation Continuity Tester with Bluetooth, 50/100/250/500 V

Model: MIT485/2 | Order No: 1004-742

Designed for electrical testing by power utilities, industrials, telecommunication companies, and cable testing markets, this insulation and continuity tester is ideally suited for maintenance technicians and engineers. Also featured is Bluetooth technology, ensuring hassle-free communication, and an over-molded design.


Megger MIT480 Insulation Resistance and Continuity Tester

The Megger MIT400 Series insulation and continuity testers has been designed for electrical testing by power utilities, industrials, telecommunication companies, commercial/domestic electricians and anyone with unique test voltage requirements. The wide range of features also makes the MIT400 Series ideal for maintenance technicians and engineers.

They replace the well-established BM400 insulation tester range, giving greater functionality with simplified operation, greater application range and increased safety.


Applications

Designed to cope with the additional requirements of the telecommunications industry, MIT Models 480, 481 and 485 include 50 V and 100 V range insulation testing as standard, plus higher voltages as required.

In addition, the voltage detection test inhibit feature has been raised to 75 V (from 50 V), to allow testing of cables with coactivity coupled induced voltages, which would normally inhibit such testing with a 50 V protected instrument.


What's Included

  • Set of silicone test leads - Flexible and long lasting, these leads prevent errors from test lead leakage on high resistance type of insulation testing. They also provide increased accuracy above 10 GΩ.
  • Rugged instrument rubber boot with built-in stand- Protects the instrument from dings and drops and provides an easier, better grip of the instrument.
  • High-impact polypropylene carry case - Further protects the instrument and provides space for the leads, switch probe, etc.
  • Owner information CD.
  • Three year product warranty.
  • Free calibration certificate
  • Plug-in switch probe - Allows the user to remotely perform insulation tests, reducing the time taken to perform a test.
  • 75 V live circuit inhibit

Instrument Safety

The MIT400 Series instruments are designed to meet all of the requirements of IEC1010-2 and EN61557 and meets the safety requirements for use on CAT IV 600 V.

  • Any live circuit detection inhibits any insulation testing on circuits above 50 V (75 volts on Telecom models)
  • Any live circuit detection and test inhibit on continuity measurements
  • Default display of live circuit voltage on all ranges
  • Detection and inhibit features function even if the protections fuse has failed

Also, fast detection circuitry prevents damage to the instruments if accidentally connected to live circuits or across phases.
