DMEG3 • Insulation Resistance Tester
Copyright © 2007 UEi Specifications are subject to change without notice. L647 1/07
Distributed By:
The DMEG3 Megohmeter allows you to predict,
prevent and identify insulation failures that can
cause appliance failure, stop production, create
power problems and even put lives at risk. It quickly
tests insulation integrity on motors, power
distribution systems and other installed wiring.
The DMEG3
has the following features:
• Large digital display that shows the test function and measured value
• 600V AC measurement capability
• Autoranging insulation resistance ranges 0 - 2000MΩ
• Three test-voltage ranges (250, 500, 1000V DC)
• Live circuit warning light
• Fuse protected
• Precision resistance 0.01Ω
• 200 mA short-circuit continuity test current for high accuracy
• Precision, low resistance test leads (1000 Volt CAT III rated)
• Audible continuity
• Green LED power-on indicator
• Low battery indication/detection
• Maintains rated voltage on cables with up to 1 mA leak-rate
• Automatic post-test cable discharge
• Rugged compact case with protective cover
• Three year limited warranty
