Always adhere to the following safety precautions to prevent injury and damage to the instrument:

• זיכער מאַכן אַז די ינסטרומענט איז אין גוטן אַרבעטס צושטאַנד איידער נוצן.
• Do not operate the tester in wet conditions or explosive atmospheres.
• Always use the provided high-quality, flexible silicon test leads that meet IEC 61010-31:2008 safety regulations.
• Verify the CAT IV 600 V safety rating on all terminals for safe application.
• Never touch test leads or the circuit under test during operation.
• Discharge the circuit completely after testing before disconnecting leads.
• Refer to local safety regulations and standards for electrical testing.

3.1 אַנפּאַקינג און דורכקוק

Upon receiving your Megger MIT525-US, carefully unpack all components and inspect for any signs of damage. The package should include the main unit, test leads, and power cable.

3.2 מאַכט די ינסטרומענט

The MIT525-US operates from line power (85 to 265 V, 50/60 Hz) or its internal lithium-ion battery. The battery charges automatically when connected to line power, even during operation.

1. Connect the power cable to the instrument's power input and a suitable AC outlet.
2. Allow approximately 2.5 hours for a full battery charge. A 0.5-hour charge provides approximately 1 hour of testing.

3.3 פֿאַרבינדן טעסט דראָטן

Connect the provided test leads to the appropriate terminals on the instrument. The MIT525-US features dedicated terminals for positive (+), negative (-), and guard connections.

• Connect the red lead to the positive (+) terminal.
• Connect the black lead to the negative (-) terminal.
• Connect the blue lead to the guard terminal (if required for high accuracy measurements).

4.1 Basic Insulation Resistance (IR) Test

The MIT525-US offers resistance measurement up to 10 TΩ for 5 kV models.

1. מאַכט אויף: קער די דריי - באַשטימען צו דער געוואלט פּרובירן וואַלtage (e.g., 500 V, 1 kV, 2.5 kV, 5 kV). The instrument will power on and display the selected voltage.
2. Connect to DUT: Connect the test leads to the Device Under Test (DUT) according to safety guidelines.
3. אויסקלייבן טעסט באַנדtage: ניצן די וואָלtage selection knob to fine-tune the test voltage in 10 V steps (50 V to 1 kV) or 25 V steps (1 kV to max test voltagאון).
4. אָנהייבן טעסט: דרוק די פּרובירן button. The instrument will apply the test voltage and display the insulation resistance.
5. לייענען מעסטונג: The digital/analog display will show the resistance value.
6. Terminate Test: מעלדונג די פּרובירן button. The instrument will automatically discharge the DUT.

4.2 Advanced Diagnostic Tests

The MIT525-US supports various diagnostic tests including Polarization Index (PI), Dielectric Absorption Ratio (DAR), Dielectric Discharge (DD), Step Voltage (SV), and Ramp tests. These tests are crucial for assessing insulation quality and trending.

• PI/DAR טעסט: Select the PI/DAR mode using the rotary switch. The instrument will automatically perform timed IR measurements at specific intervals to calculate these ratios.
• DD Test: Select the DD mode. This test measures the discharge current after a period of charging, indicating insulation degradation.
• SV Test: In Step Voltage mode, the instrument applies a series of increasing test voltages, allowing for detection of voltage-dependent insulation weaknesses.
• Ramp טעסט: דער רamp test gradually increases the test voltage, providing a detailed breakdown characteristic of the insulation.

Refer to the on-screen menu and detailed instructions within the instrument's internal software for specific parameter settings and interpretation of results for advanced tests.

4.3 Voltmeter Function

The instrument includes a dedicated voltmeter function (30 V to 660 V) with frequency measurement to check for induced voltages on the circuit before testing.
