It supports advanced diagnostic tests (PI, DAR, DD, SV, ramp) with a wide measurement range up to 10 T ohm, all packed into a compact, lightweight form factor ideal for high-voltage cable, transformer, and motor testing professionals. ## Description Advanced memory with time/date stamp. CATIV 600 V safety rating on all terminals. The new range of insulation resistance testers consists of 5kV units. Resistance measurement is available up to 10 T ohm for the 5 kV models. The new instruments are smaller and lighter than previous models yet offer advanced features and rapid charge capability. Smaller size and lighter weight allows easier transport and use without compromising performance. High measurement range enables installation testing and long-term trending of higher value apparatus. Unique dual case design allows for fire-retardant protection while maintaining ruggedness. High-quality, flexible silicon test leads meet safety regulations of IEC 61010-31:2008 while ensuring measurement accuracy. Timed IR plus PI, DAR, DD, SV and ramp tests maximize diagnostic testing capability. Operate from line power when battery fully discharged (charges while operating). Two and one-half hour full battery charge time (one-half hour charge for one hour testing) significantly increases productivity. Industry best guard terminal performance to insure highest accuracy of measured values. Enhanced driver technology provides plug-and-play when connected to the internet. No tedious and potentially interruptive setup procedures. Dedicated voltmeter function (30 V to 660 V) with frequency measurement allows the user to check for induced voltages. CATIV 600 V safety rating on all terminals allows for safe use in the widest range of applications. 5 Percent accuracy all the way up to 1 T-ohm at 5 kV and 2 T-ohm at 10 kV ensures highest accuracy where it matters most. Applications: High-voltage power cables and high-voltage buses. Large motor/generator windings. Line and substation transformers. Analog/digital display. Line power and rechargable power supply. Test Voltage: 5.0 kV, 2.5 kV, 1.0 kV, 500 V, 250 V, 10 V steps 50 V to 1 kV, 25 V steps 1 kV to max. test voltage. Operating temperature: -4 to +122 degree F. Review: Five Stars - An instrument like this doesn't need presentation... Just excellent! Review: Disappointed customer - Why did you pick this product vs others?: It did not. It was in terrible condition, parts missing. I was required to buy new, but didn't realize that's what it was and for more than the price for new one. ## Features - Industry best guard terminal accuracy - Compact and lightweight for easy transport and use - PI, DAR, DD, SV and ramp test - Unique dual case design provides additional user protection - Lithium-ion battery - extended capacity, rapid charge ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0089Z6IHC | | Best Sellers Rank | #187,489 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #30 in Insulation Resistance Meters | | Brand | Megger | | Brand Name | Megger | | Color | Black, Gray | | Compatible Devices | High-voltage power cables, transformers, motors, generators | | Customer Reviews | 3.1 out of 5 stars 3 Reviews | | Item Weight | 16.85 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Megger | | Measurement Type | Ohmmeter | | Min.
