5. പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ
This section outlines the basic operation and various test modes available on the Megger MIT1525-US.
5.1. Basic Insulation Resistance Test
- Prepare the Circuit: Ensure the circuit or equipment to be tested is de-energized, isolated, and safely discharged.
- ടെസ്റ്റ് ലീഡുകൾ ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Connect the red (Line) and black (Earth) test leads to the circuit under test. If using the guard terminal for surface leakage current compensation, connect the blue (Guard) lead.
- Select Test Voltage: Use the rotary switch to select the desired test voltage (e.g., 500V, 1000V, 2500V, 5000V, 10000V, 15000V).
- പരീക്ഷണം ആരംഭിക്കുക: ചുവപ്പ് അമർത്തി പിടിക്കുക ടെസ്റ്റ് button. The instrument will apply the selected voltage and display the insulation resistance value.
- വായനകൾ നിരീക്ഷിക്കുക: Monitor the LCD for the resistance reading (in MΩ, GΩ, or TΩ). The display will also show the applied test voltagഇയും കറൻ്റും.
- End Test: റിലീസ് ചെയ്യുക ടെസ്റ്റ് button to stop the test. The instrument will automatically discharge the circuit.
5.2. Advanced Test Modes
The MIT1525-US offers advanced diagnostic tests to assess insulation quality over time.
- ധ്രുവീകരണ സൂചിക (PI): Measures the ratio of insulation resistance at 10 minutes to the resistance at 1 minute. A low PI value can indicate insulation degradation.
- Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR): Measures the ratio of insulation resistance at 1 minute to the resistance at 30 seconds. Similar to PI, it helps assess insulation condition.
- Dielectric Discharge (DD): Measures the current discharged from the insulation after a test voltage has been applied and then removed. This test is sensitive to localized defects in multi-layer insulation.
- ഘട്ടം വോളിയംtage (SV): Applies a series of increasing test voltages, with resistance measured at each step. This helps detect voltage-dependent insulation weaknesses.
- Ramp ടെസ്റ്റ്: Gradually increases the test voltage while monitoring the leakage current. This can pinpoint the voltage at which insulation breakdown occurs.
To access these modes, use the rotary switch or menu navigation as indicated on the instrument's display. Detailed instructions for each advanced test are available in the full product manual.
