  • Page 7: Initial Start-Up

    Repair, Parts Replacement and Balancing When the instrument is opened, voltage conducting parts may be exposed. The instrument must be disconnected from the measur- ing circuit for repair, replacement of parts or balancing. If repair or balancing of a live, open instrument is required, this may only be carried out by trained personnel who are familiar with the dangers involved.

  • Page 9: Lcd Display

    LCD Display Digital Display The digital display (9) shows the measurement value with correct decimal point and sign. The selected unit of measure (12) and the current type (11) are also displayed. A minus sign appears in front of the value for zero-frequency quantities, if the positive pole of the measured quantity is applied to the “⊥”...

  • Page 10: Minimum And Maximum Value Storage

    Minimum and Maximum Value Storage Minimum and maximum values which occur at the measuring instrument input after the MIN/MAX function has been activated can be “frozen”. The most important application for this function is the determination of minimum and maximum values for long-term observation of measured quantities.

  • Page 11: Voltage Measurement

    600V – (+) – (+) + (–) + (–) METRA HIT 16I/L: 1 MΩ Input Impedance The measuring instrument is equipped with a V selector switch 1MΩ position with an input impedance of approx. 1 MΩ specifically for electricians. This reduces incorrect measurement results caused by capacitive coupling during voltage measurement in electrical power networks to a minimum.

  • Page 12: Transient Overvoltages

    Transient Overvoltages The METRA HIT 16I/L and T multimeters are protected against transient overvoltages of up to 6 kV with a rise time of 1.2 and a decay time of 50 μs. Due to the fact that overvoltages of greater...

    Temperature Measurement Temperature can be measured in °C or °F with the help of Pt 100 and Pt 1000 temperature sensors. ➭ Set the rotary switch to “Ω”. ➭ Connect the sensor to the multimeter measurement jacks (7). ➭ Press the multifunction key FUNC once for display in °C, twice for display in °F, and three times for the compensation of measure- ment cable resistance.

  • Page 17: Insulation Resistance Measurement With The Metra Hit 16I/L

    Insulation Resistance Measurement with the METRA HIT 16I/L 14.1 Preparation for Measurement Note! Insulation resistance may only be measured at voltage- free objects. When measuring high-ohmic insulation resistances do not touch the measurement cables. ➭ Set the rotary switch to “V1MΩ”.

  • Page 18: Insulation Resistance Measurement

    The minimum values for insulation resistance can be determined with the following table, which must be displayed under consider- ation of maximum operating error for the METRA HIT 16I/L (under nominal conditions of use) in order to assure that the required limit values are not violated.

  • Page 19: Insulation Resistance Measurement At Telecommunications Equipment With The Metra Hit 16T

    Insulation Resistance Measurement at Telecommunications Equipment with the METRA HIT 16T Three jacks, a, b and j, have been provided for measurement at telecommunications equipment with two conductors and shield. Insulation testing between a and b, j and a or b and j can be selected with the function selector switch.

  • Page 20: Evaluation Of Measurement Values

    Conclusion of Measurement and Discharging ➭ Briefly press the multifunction key FUNC. After the measurement has been completed, any residual voltage is displayed which may be caused by conductor capacitance. The 100 kΩ internal resistance provides for quick discharging. Contact with the DUT must be maintained.
