1. Introduktion
This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the safe and effective operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of the Megger MIT420/2 Insulation Tester. The MIT420/2 is a robust and versatile instrument designed for insulation and continuity testing in various electrical applications, offering multiple test voltages and advanced diagnostic features.

The image displays the Megger MIT420/2 Insulation Tester, a grey and black handheld device with a digital display showing '503 > 200 GΩ'. It features a rotary dial for selecting test voltages (50V, 100V, 250V, 500V, 1kV) and functions like MΩ, V, and OFF. Included accessories are red and black test leads with alligator clips and probe tips, a red CD labeled 'INDUSTRIAL TESTERS', a warranty card, a certificate of calibration, and a set of AA batteries, all neatly arranged within a black hard-shell carrying case.
2. Sikkerhedsoplysninger
Always adhere to local and national safety regulations when using the Megger MIT420/2. This instrument is rated CAT IV 600V, indicating its suitability for measurements at the source of the low-voltage-installation, såsom elmålere og primære overstrømsbeskyttelsesanordninger.
- Do not use the tester if it appears damaged or if the test leads are compromised.
- Ensure the circuit under test is de-energized before connecting or disconnecting test leads, unless performing live voltage målinger.
- Brug passende personlige værnemidler (PPE), herunder isolerede handsker og sikkerhedsbriller.
- Never exceed the maximum input ratings of the instrument.
- Avoid testing in wet or damp forhold.

5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1 Tænd/sluk
Rotate the central dial to any function (e.g., MΩ or V) to power on the unit. To power off, rotate the dial to the 'OFF' position.
5.2 Insulation Resistance (MΩ) Test
- Rotate the dial to the 'MΩ' position.
- Brug voltage selection buttons to choose the desired test voltage (50V, 100V, 250V, 500V, or 1kV).
- Tilslut testledningerne til det kredsløb eller den komponent, der testes.
- Press the 'TEST' button to initiate the insulation test. The display will show the resistance value.
- Release the 'TEST' button to stop the test.
5.3 bindtage Måling (V)
- Rotate the dial to the 'V' position.
- Connect the test leads across the points where voltage skal måles.
- The display will show the measured AC or DC voltage.
5.4 PI and DAR Tests
These diagnostic tests are performed in the MΩ mode. Refer to the detailed instructions in the full user manual (often provided on the included CD or Megger's website) for specific steps on initiating and interpreting Polarization Index (PI) and Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR) tests.
6. Vedligeholdelse
6.1 Rengøring
Wipe the instrument's casing med annonceamp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the unit is dry before storage or next use.
6.2 Udskiftning af batteri
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Follow the steps in Section 4.1. Dispose of old batteries according to local regulations.
6.3 Opbevaring
Store the MIT420/2 in its carrying case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
6.4 Kalibrering
The Megger MIT420/2 is supplied with a Certificate of Calibration. Regular calibration by an authorized service center is recommended to ensure continued accuracy and compliance with industry standards. Refer to the certificate for recommended calibration intervals.
7. Fejlfinding
