The Megohmmeter Model 1040 is a 1000 volt battery powered digital
insulation resistance tester. It is designed to measure insulation resistance, continuity,
voltage and to measure resistance.
The Model 1040 tests are 500 and 1000V. It incorporates
a 600V voltmeter which automatically detects and accurately displays AC/DC voltages in the
test circuit on each of the insulation test voltage ranges.
Above 25V it also provides and
audible and visual signal, and inhibits further tests, thus protecting the user and the
meter.
An exceptionally large digital/analog multi-function display provides clear and easy
readings enhanced by a bright blue electroluminscent backlight.
Model 1040 Kit 1000V Megohmmeter
Catalog# 2117.30
The Megohmmeter Model 1040 Kit includes a Model 1040
megohmmeter, field case, two color-coded leads, black test probe, two alligator clips,
remote test probe, batteries and user manual.
The Remote Test Probe (with target light) is
used for all measurements. The yellow button on the probe button is used the same way as
the button on the instruments.
The test voltage is generated when the button is pushed.
