The Megger MOM3 Microohmmeter (Choice of Kits)

The Megger MOM3 Microohmmeter is a lightweight, battery-powered handheld instrument that can deliver up to 300A DC test current for resistance measurements up to 3Ω, with high resolution and accuracy.

At its core are ultracapacitors, which provide instant high-current output to perform successive resistance tests without drawing directly from the battery. Featuring auto-ranging from 0.1 µΩ to 3000 mΩ, a high-resolution, backlit display, and an intuitive interface, the Megger MOM3 ensures simple navigation and reliable test execution in challenging conditions. It features an internal memory that stores over 2000 test results with efficient data export via USB-C. The Megger MOM3 is built to withstand the rigours of industrial environments, meeting both IEEE and IEC standards for shock, vibration, and transport. It is able to operate in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +50°C as well as altitudes of up to 3000 metres. Features such as durable rubber housing, an IP54 rating, audible feedback, and robust connectors add to its usability and dependability in the field.

Applications

The Megger MOM3 is designed to measure low resistance in electrical systems where poor connections may cause power loss, overheating, or equipment failure. The most common tests the Megger MOM3 performs include contact resistance measurements and connection checks on low-, medium-, and high-voltage circuit breakers, busbar joints, disconnecting devices, switches, fuses, cables, welding points, and grounding systems. Regularly monitoring electrical installations with the Megger MOM3 can help prevent faults while also ensuring safety and efficiency. For example, a contact resistance of just 1 mΩ at 10 kA can lead to a 100 kW power loss, posing serious risks and possibly premature failure if left unchecked.

Here's a table that demonstrates the importance of low resistance joins within high current applications:

Current Contact resistance Power loss
10 kA 1 mΩ 100 kW
10 kA 0.1 mΩ 10 kW
1 kA 1 mΩ 1 kW
1 kA 0.1 mΩ 100 W
