Insulation Resistance Meter  – Overview

The MIC-5 is a handy insulation resistance meter that any self-respecting electrician can sling around his neck like a doctor’s stethoscope in order to always have it at hand. The instrument allows for simple and quick insulation evaluation, checking continuity of connections and measuring voltage on the object.

Insulation Resistance Meter – Features

• Insulation resistance measurement:
  • selectable measurement voltage: 250 V or 500 V
  • continuous indication of measured resistance
  • very long operation time with one set of batteries: 14 h for measurement at U_ISO = 250 V, 11 h for U_ISO = 500 V
  • automatic discharge of tested object’s capacitance after measurement of insulation resistance
  • acoustic determination of 5 seconds time intervals that facilitates to take time characteristics during insulation resistance measurement
  • measurement current up to 1.4 mA
  • protection against measurement of live objects
• Low voltage resistance measurement in range of 0…1999 Ω:
  • measurement with current of <10 mA with resolution of 0,1 Ω
  • quick acoustic signalling for circuit resistance below 10 Ω
• AC/DC voltage measurement in range of 0…600 V:
  • • automatic detection of voltage type (AC/DC)
• Autoranging
• Suitable for 50 Hz and 60 Hz network
• Backlit LCD display
• AUTO-OFF function
• Built-in flashlight
• Meets the requirements of IEC 61557-1 and IEC 61557-2
