Megger 212160, 212159, 212359, 212459, and 212559
Major Megger Insulation Resistance Testers

• No scale multipliers
• Multiple test voltages for spot and step voltage testing
• Guard terminal to eliminate surface leakage current

Four of the models feature an analog display having four selectable test voltages of 100, 250, 500 and 1000 VDC, measuring insulation resistance up to 2000 MΩ,and an ohm range to 5000 ≈. The other model has four test voltages of 50,100, 250 and 500 VDC measuring insulation resistance up to 1000 M≈.The only other difference between the five analog models is the type of power source. Power for models MJ159 andMJ160 is derived from a low-voltage, hand cranked generator which has been designed to be easy to turn even under full load conditions. The low-voltage generator is connected to an electronic inverter to provide a very stable test voltage. Accuracy of measurement is unaffected by variations in the generator cranking speed and the test voltage is maintained at its rated value. Power for model MJ359 is provided by 120 V ac 50/60 Hz or low-voltage generator.

Model MJ559 is also 120 VAC 50/60 Hz or internal rechargeable batteries and model MJ459 is powered by 6replaceable "AA" alkaline cells. As a safety feature, the ac voltage range becomes effective as soon as the instrument is connected to the circuit under test. Therefore, a warning is given that the circuit under testis not de-energized before the instrument is operated.

Though calibrated for ac voltage, this range also monitors the automatic discharge feature so that after equipment having capacitance (i.e. a cable), has been tested, an indication can be given that the voltage has discharged to a level that is safe for removing the test leads.
