Produkt overview
The Extech MG320 is a versatile instrument combining a portable 20GΩ/1000V insulation tester with a True RMS multimeter. It is designed for professionals needing to perform insulation resistance measurements and general electrical troubleshooting.
Key features include Polarization Index (PI) and Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR) modes, a programmable timer for test duration, and a comparator function for setting custom pass/fail criteria. The device offers 5 test voltage ranges and includes high voltage and overload indication for safety. It is rated CAT IV 600V for enhanced safety.
The MG320 allows for manual storage and recall of up to 99 readings, making it suitable for field use where data logging is required. It comes complete with test leads, an alligator clip, 6 AA batteries, and a soft carrying case.

Sikkerhedsoplysninger
Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Use personal protective equipment (PPE) as required. Ensure the device is in good working condition before use. Do not attempt to measure voltageller strømme, der overstiger de angivne maksimale værdier.
- CAT IV 600V Safety Rating: This instrument is designed for measurements at the source of the low-voltage-installation, såsom elmålere og primære overstrømsbeskyttelsesanordninger.
- Inspect test leads for damage before each use.
- Brug ikke måleren, hvis den ser beskadiget ud, eller hvis huset er åbent.
- Always disconnect power to the circuit under test before making connections for resistance or continuity measurements.
- Vær opmærksom på høj voltage during insulation tests.
Opsætning
Installation af batteri
The Extech MG320 requires 6 AA batteries for operation. To install or replace batteries:
- Sørg for, at måleren er slukket.
- Find batterirummet på bagsiden af enheden.
- Brug en skruetrækker til at åbne batteridækslet.
- Isæt 6 AA-batterier, og sørg for korrekt polaritet (+/-).
- Sæt batterirummets dæksel på igen og fastgør det med skruen.
Tilslutning af prøveledninger
Connect the red test lead to the VΩ input terminal and the black test lead to the COM input terminal for most measurements. For insulation tests, connect the red lead to the V INSULATION terminal and the black lead to the EARTH terminal.
Betjeningsvejledning
Isolationsmodstandsmåling
The MG320 offers 5 test voltage ranges for insulation resistance. Always ensure the circuit under test is de-energized before performing insulation tests.
- Turn the rotary switch to one of the INSULATION TEST voltage ranges (50V, 100V, 250V, 500V, 1000V).
- Connect the test leads to the circuit or component to be tested.
- Tryk på PRØVE button to initiate the insulation test. The display will show the resistance value.
- Slip PRØVE button to stop the test.
True RMS Multimeter Functions
The MG320 also functions as a True RMS multimeter for various electrical measurements.
- Voltage Måling (AC/DC): Turn the rotary switch to the V~ (AC) or V- (DC) position. Connect test leads in parallel with the circuit.
- Resistance Measurement (Ω): Turn the rotary switch to the Ω position. Ensure the circuit is de-energized. Connect test leads across the component.
- Kontinuitetstest: Turn the rotary switch to the continuity position. A built-in buzzer will sound if continuity is detected.

Opretholdelse
Rensning
Wipe the meter with a dry, clean cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Keep the display clean for optimal readability.
Udskiftning af batteri
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display to ensure accurate measurements. Refer to the "Battery Installation" section under Setup for detailed instructions.
Opbevaring
If the meter is not used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and damage. Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Måleren tænder ikke. | Døde eller forkert installerede batterier. | Kontroller batteripolariteten; udskift batterierne. |
| Upræcise aflæsninger. | Low battery, incorrect function selected, damaged test leads. | Replace batteries, verify function setting, inspect and replace test leads if damaged. |
| "OL" or Overload displayed. | Målingen overstiger målerens rækkevidde. | Select a higher range or ensure the measurement is within the meter’s capabilities. |
