Megger DLRO2 Hand-held 2A Low Resistance Ohmmeter

Megger DLRO2 Hand-held 2A Low Resistance Ohmmeter

For quick data comparisons, the Megger Hand-Held DLRO2 comes equipped with a brand new innovative Difference Meter. This incredible new feature allows for repetitive measurements to be compared easily and quickly to an initial reference measurement. Set a reference point with the simple push of a button, the Difference Meter will then translate percentage difference to a needle in order to make change exceedingly visible to the user.

The safety features of the Megger DLRO2 are designed to protect the operator from inadvertent connections and ensure accuracy even when used in harsh weather conditions. The ohmmeter can protect itself from accidental live connections up to 600 V without blowing a fuse, and the IP54 rating prevents rain, moisture or dust from disrupting testing. With a 3 year warranty included, this reliable device has a high level of safety with a CATIII 600 V/CATIV 300 V rating to IEC61010. What's more, it comes supplied with kelvin clip test leads rated CATIII 600 V/CATIV 300 V. Minimise downtime thanks to the batteries capable of recharging in 2.5 hours, with as many as 500 x 2 A three second tests from one full charge.

Three Test Modes

The Megger DLRO2 Hand-held 2A Low Resistance Ohmmeter includes three test modes from accomplishing different tasks:

• Normal resistance mode (µΩ)
• Fast/Long test leads test mode (mΩ)
• Inductive resistance mode (µΩ)

Normal Resistance Mode

Inductive Resistance Mode

In this configuration the test current of the hand-held DLRO2 will be set 1 A so as to decrease charge time and the current will be auto ranged up as the inductance is charged. What sets this mode apart is the intuitive auto stop feature, monitoring the rate of change the ohmmeter will automatically stop the test the instant the result is stable. Highly useful for applications such as those with continuity detection at less than 2000 Ω.

Wide Array of Applications

The Megger DLRO2 Hand-held 2A Low Resistance Ohmmeter is suitable for a substantial amount of tasks and with the inclusion of the separate test modes, this level of practicality is increased even further.

• Automotive and EV – Weld quality, crimped connections quality, battery connections and assembly robot welding cables
• Component manufacturers – Quality control
• Data centres – During installation of main electrical panel, UPS systems & generator. Verification of protective device contact resistance, parallel feed, optimum resistance over torque, busbar, busbar lapped joints & cable lug to busbar connections.
• Electrical infrastructure – Cable length, cable resistance from one end, identifying parallel supplies while connected, cable to lug to connection fault finding. Checking assembled connections main supply cables and panels, UPS and changeover panels, switchgear and protective devices, interlinking busbars & cables, lightning protection systems, final circuits, distribution and PDU boards.
• Medical hand-held opportunity – Earthing and bonding systems for protection against macro and micro-shock.
• Oil and gas pipelines – Testing the bonding between welded joints & grounding systems.
• Panel/switchgear manufacturers – Site commissioning, end of production line testing, maintenance and fault finding.
• Rail, tram and underground – Rolling stock and infrastructure, signalling systems and track high current joints.
• Robotics – Grounding of machine, the wiring systems and connections which are subject to stress/movement/vibration, bonding of component parts to minimise static & welding leads of robot spot welder.
• Space exploration and engineering – Carbon fibre to metal, structural metal to metal, ground network metal to metal and carbon fibre to carbon fibre.

Fast/ Long test leads example applications include:

• Aviation – Lightning protection testing measuring mΩ resistance between receptors, wing tip to wing tip etc. With optional long cable reel test leads available, these can be used for assembly of components, interconnection of equipment, maintenance and repair.
• Manufacturing - Quality control, cable length, cable resistance and large cable looms or assemblies etc.
• Marine – Power wiring systems, protection systems, ship-to-shore bonding, cathode protection system testing, subsea cable laying applications and cable resistance and ground connections.
• Wind turbines – Lightning protection, measuring mΩ resistance between wing tip to ground connection at base. Optional long cable reel test leads are available.

Inductive Resistance Mode example applications include:

• Electric motors small to medium in size such as railway traction motor stator winding resistance
• Small power distribution transformers
