5. Настройка

5.1 Устаноўка батарэі

The MH13 requires 8 AA5 batteries for operation. To install or replace batteries:

1. Знайдзіце батарэйны адсек на задняй панэлі прылады.
2. Адкрыйце крышку батарэйнага адсека.
3. Insert 8 AA5 batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Надзейна зачыніце крышку батарэйнага адсека.

5.2 Падключэнне вымяральных правадоў

Connect the test leads to the appropriate input terminals on the MH13. For most measurements, the red lead connects to the 'LINE' terminal and the black lead connects to the 'EARTH (G)' terminal.

6. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

6.1 Уключэнне/выключэнне сілкавання

Націсніце чырвоную кнопку харчавання (U) to turn the device on or off. The device features an 'Auto power off' function to conserve battery life.

6.2 Вымярэнне супраціўлення ізаляцыі

This function measures the insulation resistance of electrical systems and components.

1. Пераканайцеся, што правяраемы ланцуг абясточаны і бяспечна разраджаны.
2. Connect the red test lead to the 'LINE' terminal and the black test lead to the 'EARTH (G)' terminal on the MH13.
3. Connect the test leads to the two points of the component or circuit where insulation resistance is to be measured.
4. Абярыце патрэбны аб'ём выхадуtage (250V, 500V/1000V, or 2000V/2500V) using the appropriate buttons or selector.
5. Націсніце кнопку «ТЭСТ' button to initiate the measurement. The display will show the insulation resistance value.
6. Release the 'ТЭСТ' button to stop the measurement. The circuit under test will automatically discharge.

6.3 AC/DC Voltagе Вымярэнне

The MH13 can also measure AC and DC voltagэс.

1. In the standby interface, short press the 'ВЫБРАЦЬ' button to enter the AC voltage function. Press it again to switch to the DC voltagе функцыя.
2. Connect the red test lead to the 'AC/DC 600V' terminal and the black test lead to the 'EARTH (G)' terminal.
3. Insert the test lead probes into the circuit to be measured.
4. Прачытайце тtagзначэнне, якое адлюстроўваецца на экране.

6.4 Polarization Index (PI) and Absorption Ratio (DAR)

The Polarization Index (PI) and Absorption Ratio (DAR) are critical for assessing the quality and aging problems of insulation in electrical equipment.

• DAR (Dielectric Absorption Ratio): Ratio of insulation resistance at 60 seconds to insulation resistance at 30 seconds.
• PI (Polarization Index): Ratio of insulation resistance at 10 minutes to insulation resistance at 1 minute.

The MH13 can automatically compute DAR and PI. To perform these tests:

1. Set up the insulation resistance test as described in Section 6.2.
2. Націсніце кнопку «PI/DARкнопка '.
3. Націсніце кнопку «ТЭСТ' button and hold it for the duration of the test (e.g., 10 minutes for PI). The device will automatically record the necessary resistance values at 1 minute and 10 minutes.
4. The calculated PI and DAR values will be displayed. Refer to the judgment standard table for interpretation.
