GSAFETY WARNINGS

Safety Warning must be observed during use.

nThe circuit under test must be switched off, de-energised, isolated and checked to be safe before insulation test connections are made. Make sure the

circuit is not re-energised whilst the instrument is connected.

nCircuit connections must not be touched during an insulation test.

nAfter completing a test, capacitive circuits must be completely discharged before disconnecting the test leads. Capacitive charges can be lethal.

nTested items should be firmly shorted out with a shorting link, after discharge, until required for use. This is to guard against any stored dielectric

absorption charge subsequently being released thereby raising the voltage to potentially dangerous levels.

nThe voltage indicator and automatic discharge features should be regarded as additional safety features and not a substitute for normal safe working

practice.

nIt is rare, but in certain circumstances, breakdown of the circuit under test may cause the instrument to terminate the test in an uncontrolled manner,

possibly causing a loss of display while the circuit remains energised. In this event, the unit must be turned off and the circuit discharged manually.

nTest leads, including crocodile clips, must be in good order, clean and with no broken or cracked insulation.

nThe instrument should not be used if any partof it is damaged.

nInsulation testing in wet weather conditions might be hazardous. It is recommeded that this instrument is not used in these circumstances. If this

unavoidable, the user must takeall necessary precautions.

nThis instrument is not intrinsically safe and must not be used in hazardous atmospheres.

NOTE

THE INSTRUMENT MUST ONLY BE USED BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND COMPETENT PERSONS.

Users of this equipment and/or their employers are reminded that National Health and Safety Legislation requires them to carry out valid risk assessments of

all electrical work so as to identify potential sources of electrical danger and risk of electrical injury such as inadvertent short circuits. Where the assessments

show that the risk is significant then the use of fused test leads may be appropriate.

INTRODUCTION

General Description

The MIT520/2 is a microprocessor controlled 5 kV insulation tester offering

measurement capability of up to 15 TΩ.The instrument performs

automatic tests and has data storage and data retrieval facilities.

Polarization index and dielectric discharge tests are performed

automatically, and test duration and voltages can be adjusted according to

user preference for these tests. A step voltage test can be performed

automatically, with a default voltage of 1 kV, and test duration of 5 minutes.

It is possible for the user to set different voltages and test durations for the

step voltage test.

The MIT520/2 can be powered from the mains supply or by its own

internal rechargeable battery, which provides for at least 6 hours of

continuous testing with a 100 MΩload. A battery level indicator on the

LCD display indicates batterycapacity.Connecting power to the mains

supply connector will automatically charge the battery whether the

instrument is switched ‘on’ or ‘off ’, except during testing. A high level of

internal isolation allows the instrument to be used while the unit is

supplied from the mains. An internal battery management system switches

the instrument off after ten minutes of inactivity. If the battery approaches

a very low state of charge the instrument turns itself off, and mains power

must be applied before the instrument can be used again. Recorded test

results and settings will not be lost when the instrument is switched off.

Acomprehensive LCD display shows resistance, current, capacitance, time

constant, voltage, timer measurements, and figure of merit measurements

such as polarisation index.

POWER LEAD AND BATTERY CHARGING

If the power lead supplied is not suitable for your mains connection, do

not use an adaptor. Always use a power lead fitted with the correct plug.

The instrument is fitted with a two-pin IEC60320 power inlet. Most power

leads are made with three-core cable, so the ground connection will not

be used.

Connection UK/International USA

Earth/Ground Yellow/Green Green

Neutral Blue White

Live (Line) Brown Black

If using a fused plug, ensure that it is fitted with a 3 Amp fuse.

The instrument can be powered from 85 - 265 Vrms a.c. at 50/60 Hz. The

battery will charge as long as the mains supply is connected, except when

atest is in progress. The power On/Off button has a green LED, which

illuminates when mains power is present. For optimum battery life, charge

the battery after each use. A completely exhausted battery will take 14

hours to recharge.

When the test has stopped, the display continues to show the voltage

present on the test leads. Pressing either test voltage sor tbutton will

then display the test voltage immediately before the end of the test.

Test start / stop button

Atest will only start if this button is pressed, held and then released as

soon as the red high voltage warning indicator LED lights. The LCD and

red LED high voltage warning indicators flash when the test starts.

Atest will not start if the button is released before the red LED shows, or

pressed continuously for longer than 5 seconds. This is a safety feature to

prevent a test being started inadvertently.

The presence of a voltage greater than 50 V on the test leads is indicated

with flashing high voltage warning indicators. Testing is disabled if the

external voltage exceeds 50 V.

Testing will stop if the test start / stop button is pressed again, the preset

test time is reached, or, if the unit is not in burn mode, insulation

breakdown is detected.

When a test has finished, the instrument will discharge the load, which

may take some time. The operator must always check the load has been

discharged before touching the test leads.

Ω/I button

Pressing this button toggles the digital and secondary displays. The details

available when scrolling the secondary display will depend upon the test

mode selected, whether timers T1 and T2 have been set, and the duration

of the test. The digital display toggles between insulation resistance and

current.

Power On/Off button

The instrument will only turn on if this button is pressed, held and then

released when the display responds. The instrument will not turn on if the

button is released before the display responds, or if the button is held

down for too long. This is a safety feature to prevent the instrument being

inadvertently turned on.

The instrument is turned off either by pressing the button again, or if the

instrument is running on the battery, by timing out after 10 minutes of

inactivity.

Upon switching the instrument on the display will first show ‘Ini’ while it

undergoes a self-checking routine. When Ini disappears, the instrument is

ready for use.

Test voltage sand tbuttons

Using these buttons one of five test voltages can be selected: 250 V, 500 V,

1kV, 2.5 kV, and 5 kV. The selected voltage is shown on the display.

A non standard voltage between 50 V and 5 kV can be selected by holding

down the ‘Fn’ function button whilst operating the buttons. The selectable

voltage is adjustable in 10 V steps between 50 V and 1 kV, and adjustable in

25 V steps between 1 kV and 5 kV. An auto repeat facility is enabled when

the button is held down, allowing faster travel through the range.

If there is an external voltage greater than 50 V on the test leads, the high

voltage warning indicators are flashed, and the display shows this voltage

instead. The instrument will not performatest if this voltage is greater

than 50 V.

During a test the display shows the actual voltage on the test leads. If the

test voltage is changed during a test, the new test voltage will be displayed

briefly.

Test settings: T1 and T2 times set in order to measure the DAR

Test conditions: test runs for longer than 10 minutes as this is required for

aPI reading.

In the ‘IR’, ‘PI’, and ‘DD’ modes the secondary display initially shows the

PI (polarity index), DAR (dielectric absorption ratio), and, on completion

of the test, the TC (time constant) and capacitance measurements.

Toggling the display shows insulation resistances and currents.

In the ‘SV’ (step voltage) mode, the secondary display toggles between

insulation resistances and currents.

Figures 1 to 4 illustrate the display status for sequential ‘Ω/I’ key presses in

the different modes.
