Capacitance Measurement
•
Switch the
range selector
to capacitance measurement
•
Insert the red test lead to
VΩmA terminal
, black to COM terminal.
•
Connect the test probes to the capacitor being measured.
•
Reading is displayed.
Notes:
•
Switch off the power supply to the circuit, and fully discharge all capacitors
(especially for high voltage capacitors).
•
If the tested capacitor is shorted or its capacity is over the specified range “OL”
symbol will be displayed on the screen.
•
When measuring large capacitors, it may take a few seconds to obtain steady
readings.
•
When there is no input, the device displays a fixed value (intrinsic capacitance).
•
For small capacitance measurement, to ensure measurement accuracy, the
measured value must be subtracted from intrinsic capacitance. Or users can
measure small capacity capacitors with relative measurement function (REL) {the
device will automatically subtract the intrinsic capacitance)
Battery Measurement (MP730008 only)
•
Switch the
range selector
to battery measurement position.
•
Insert the red test lead to
VΩmA terminal
, black to COM terminal.
•
Connect the red test probes to + and black to - poles.
•
The LCD displays the battery status.
Notes:
•
Do not input over 60V DC or 30V AC.
Measuring Temperature (MP730007 only)
•
Switch the range selector to temperature position.
•
After “OL” is displayed insert the K-type thermocouple to the device terminals
VΩmA and COM and and place the test probes on the object under measurement.
•
The reading is displayed.
Notes:
•
Only the K-type thermocouple supplied with this instrument should be used.
•
The measured temperature should be less than 250
o
C/482
o
F.
NCV Measurement
•
Switch the range selector to NCV position.
•
Place the device near the object to be measured and the display shows the
intensity of the field in a series of “-” and the buzzer sounds more rapidly as the
field strength increases. eg:
“EF” : 0-50mV
“-” : 50-100mV
“--” : 100-150mV
“---” :150-200mV
“----” : >200mV
Auto Power Off
•
The meter features an Auto Power Off function. It will power off automatically
after 15 minutes inactivity and enter the sleep mode which reduces battery power
consumption. Power on the meter again by pressing any button.
