Page 5: Introduction
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Warning These safety warnings are provided to ensure the safety of personnel and proper operation of the instrument. • Read the instruction manual completely and follow all safety information before operating this instrument. • Safety is the responsibility of the operator! • Tests are to be carried out only on non-energized circuits! Check for live circuits before making resistance measure- ments (safety check). • The Megohmmeter Models 1030, 1040 and 1045 are sources of high voltage, as is the sample connected to them. All persons performing or assisting in the tests must employ all safety precautions to prevent electrical shock to themselves and to others. • AEMC considers the use of rubber gloves to be an ® excellent safety practice even if the equipment is properly operated and correctly grounded. • When testing capacitance samples, make sure that they have been properly discharged and that they are safe to touch. Dielectric insulation samples should be short- circuited for at least five times the amount of time they were energized. • Megohmmeters should never be used in an explosive envi- ronment. • Use the leads supplied with the megohmmeters. If they are defective or worn, replace before testing. • This instrument can be used on installations rated for 300V, Category II (CAT II). -

2.4.2 ALARM Button (Models 1040/1045) The ALARM button is used to turn the alarm ON and OFF for insulation, resistance, and continuity measurements. It is also used with the and selection cursor buttons to adjust the alarm set points. 2.4.3 Cursor Button (Models 1040/1045) When programming the alarm setpoints, the cursor button makes the following symbols flash as follows: • the measurement unit (if applicable), • the thousands digit, • the hundreds digit, • the tens digit, • the units digit, • the decimal point, • the alarm trigger (above or below the setting), • and it then returns to the measurement units.

2.5.1 Insulation Resistance Testing The rotary switch MΩ positions determine the insulation resistance testing voltage. Tests are to be carried out on non-energized circuits only! • Voltage Detection (Safety Check) This is an automatic safety feature. As soon as the switch is turned to a MΩ position and before the yellow test button is pressed, the megohmmeter enters a voltage detection mode. It measures any voltage between the test leads and the sample. This is a safety check to ensure that the tested sample is not live.

The voltage may drop off more or less rapidly based on the sample capacitance. Megohmmeter Models 1030/1040/1045 0.561.8187 information@itm. www.

Page 16: Continuity Testing
Note (Models 1040/1045): The resistance of the measurement leads may be compensated. The alarm may be active in the continuity mode (see §2.6.5). Note (Model 1030): In the continuity mode, a lower alarm point of 2Ω is constantly active. The buzzer will sound below this value. However, the buzzer may be disabled by pressing the yellow button. 2.5.3 Resistance Measurement (Models 1040/1045) Measurements to be carried out on non-energized circuits only!

(which means that a measurement is in progress). On the Model 1045, in the TIMER mode (see §2.6.7), the five minutes steady state begins at the end of the maximum 15-minute measurement period. • Disabling/Enabling the Auto OFF (Models 1040/1045) To disable the Auto OFF, keep the button pressed down when turning ON the instrument. The symbol is then displayed, indicating that the Auto OFF function has been disabled. To enable the Auto OFF function, turn the instrument off (turn the switch to OFF) and then turn it back on again. Auto OFF is the default mode.

• Disabling/Enabling the Buzzer Model 1030: to disable the buzzer, turn the rotary switch to continuity measurement (20Ω), and then press the yellow test button. The buzzer sounds and the buzzer symbol turns off. To enable the buzzer, press the yellow test button again, or turn switch to OFF and then back on again. Buzzer on is the default mode. Models 1040 and Model 1045: to disable the buzzer, keep the ALARM button pressed down and turn the instrument ON. The buzzer symbol is off (not lit). To enable the buzzer, turn switch to OFF and then back on again. Buzzer on is the default mode. 2.6.5 Alarm Setpoints (Models 1040/1045) Alarm setpoints are fully programmable for each function.

To compensate (offset) the test leads resistance, short-circuit the leads and press the button for a short time (long press). When the compensa- tion has been recorded, the display indicates 0.00 and the buzzer sounds. From this moment on, the measurements displayed will be automatically Ω reduced by the value recorded and the symbol will de displayed. To delete the compensated lead resistance, remove the test leads and press the button for a short time (long press). When the lead compen- Ω sation is cancelled, the symbol goes out. Note that the maximum 20Ω continuity measurement range is reduced by the stored compensation value. Megohmmeter Models 1030/1040/1045 0.561.8187 information@itm. www. .com... -
Page 21: Timer (Model 1045)
When measuring, if an alarm setpoint is triggered, the buzzer sounds and display of the timer is interrupted to display the alarm message (see §2.6.5). If you forget to stop the insulation test in the TIMER mode, the megohmmeter will automatically switch back to voltage measurement after 15 minutes and the TIMER remains locked at 15:00.

Page 28: Operation
• To end the measurement, release the yellow test button. The megohmmeter then enters the voltage detection mode and displays the voltage at the terminals. If the tested sample was capacitive, a voltage may appear and drop off slowly. Wait for the sample tested to discharge fully (voltage < 25V) before disconnecting the leads.

Page 29: Continuity Measurements
• Record the continuity resistance. • The megohmmeter will continue generating a test current (200mA) until it is switched out of the continuity range. Turn the megohmmeter OFF when finished and before touching the lead ends. • When there are inductive or capacitive elements in the tested sample, it may be useful to invert the polarity by switching the leads around on the sample. Take both measurements and use their average as a measurement result. On the Models 1040 and 1045, the alarm function may be used in continu- ity measurements, and can be activated by pressing the ALARM button (see §2.6.5).
