Megger MJ159 Insulation Resistance Teste
The Megger MJ159 is a hand-cranked analog insulation resistance tester designed for field use in electrical installations. It offers four selectable test voltages—100 V, 250 V, 500 V, and 1000 V DC—and measures insulation resistance up to 2000 MΩ. The tester is powered by a low-voltage, hand-cranked generator, eliminating the need for batteries and ensuring reliable operation in remote locations. Features include a guard terminal to minimize surface leakage effects, a resistance range up to 5000 Ω, and an AC voltage measurement function for safety verification.
Description
The Megger MJ159 is engineered for professionals requiring portable and reliable insulation testing equipment. Its hand-cranked operation ensures independence from external power sources, making it ideal for fieldwork where battery replacement or charging is impractical. The tester’s analog display provides direct readings without the need for scale multipliers, enhancing ease of use. The inclusion of a guard terminal allows for accurate measurements by diverting surface leakage currents, and the AC voltage measurement function aids in confirming circuit de-energization before testing. With its robust design and comprehensive features, the MJ159 is suitable for a wide range of electrical testing applications.
