New Handheld Insulation Tester from Megger Is Rated to 2.5 kV

• Rated at 2.5 kV
• Offers accurate measurements up to 200 GΩ
• Stabilized insulation testing
• IP54 protection rating
• CATIV 600 V safety rating

Ideal for testing cables, motors and generators, this new portable tester delivers both fixed range voltages of 50 V, 100 V, 250 V, 500 V, 1000 V and 2500 V, as well as a variable range that allows any voltage between 50 V and 2500 V to be 'dialed in'.

The MIT2500 offers stabilized insulation testing to ensure that test voltages are limited to +2%, a guard terminal that helps remove insulation leakage currents on higher test voltages, as well as live circuit detection and protection functionality.  A single continuity range to 1MΩ allows for fully auto ranging and current selection making testing easier for the user.

The tester also features direct access to all primary and secondary test modes, storage and wireless downloading of test results.  The MIT2500 includes PI, DAR and timed testing.

Designed to offer long, reliable resistance even in the toughest on-site conditions, the rugged MIT2500 features resilient rubber over-molding and an IP54 protection rating.  The unit also has a CATIV 600 V safety rating that is in line with IEC 61010.

The MIT2500 is equipped with six cells, giving the advantage of 20% extra capacity and higher voltage.  Combined with better measurement economy, this tester delivers increased battery life with better charge status feedback.
