Completely read through the operating instructions, the “Warranty and Additional Information” booklet as well as the latest information under the internet link at the end of these instructions. Follow the instructions they contain. This document must be kept in a safe place and passed on together with the device.
Function / Application
Non-contact voltage tester for locating electrical voltages in cables, sockets, lamp holders, and fuses. Visual signals indicate the presence of a voltage.
Safety instructions
- The device must only be used in accordance with its intended purpose and within the scope of the specifications.
- The measuring tools and accessories are not toys. Keep out of reach of children.
- Modifications or changes to the device are not permitted, this will otherwise invalidate the approval and safety specifications.
- Do not expose the device to mechanical stress, extreme temperatures, or significant vibration.
- Exercise extreme caution when working with voltages higher than 24 V/AC rms or 60 V/DC. Touching the electrical conductors at such voltages poses a risk of life-threatening electric shocks.
- If the device comes into contact with moisture or another conductive residue, work must not be carried out under voltage. At and above voltages of 24 V/AC rms / 60 V/DC, the presence of moisture creates the risk of life-threatening electric shocks.
- Clean and dry the device before use.
- When using the device outdoors, make sure that the weather conditions are appropriate and/or that suitable protection measures are taken.
- In overvoltage category III (CAT III – 600 V), the voltage between the test device and the earth must not exceed 600 V.
- Before taking any measurements, make sure that both the area to be tested (e.g. a line), the test device, and the accessories used (e.g. connection cable) are in proper working order. Test the device by connecting it to known voltage sources (e.g. a 230 V socket in the case of AC testing).
- The device must no longer be used if one or more of its functions fail or the battery charge is weak.
- Observe the safety precautions of local and national authorities relating to the correct use of the device and any prescribed safety equipment (e.g. electrician‘s safety gloves).
- Do not work alone in the vicinity of hazardous electrical installations and only under the guidance of a qualified electrician.
- The measuring device must not be used as a substitute for a two-pole zero potential test.
Additional information on the use
Observe the technical safety regulations for working on electrical systems,
especially: 1. Safely isolating from the power supply, 2. Securing to prevent
the system from being switched on again, 3. Checking zero potential, two-pole,
4. Earthing and short-circuiting, 5. Securing and covering adjacent live
components.
Safety instructions
Dealing with electromagnetic radiation
- The measuring device complies with electromagnetic compatibility regulations and limits values in accordance with EMC-Directive 2014/30/EU.
- Local operating restrictions – for example, in hospitals, aircraft, petrol stations, or in the vicinity of people with pacemakers – may apply. Electronic devices can potentially cause hazards or interference or be subject to hazards or interference.
Symbols
Warning about hazardous electrical voltage: Unprotected live components
inside the device housing are capable of posing a risk of electric shock.
Protection class II: The test device has reinforced or double
insulation.
**CAT lll**
Overvoltage category III: Equipment in fixed installations and
for applications where specific requirements with regard to the reliability
and availability of equipment have to be met, e.g. circuit-breakers in fixed
installations and devices used in industrial applications which are
permanently connected to the fixed installation.
-
Inserting batteries
Open the battery compartment and insert batteries according to the symbols. Be sure to pay attention to polarity
**** Before using the device, you should always test it on the mainircuit you know to be operational within the specified voltage range. -
Localizing electrical voltages
Position the detector tip in the
area to be tested (e.g. cable,
socket. etc.).| The detector tip lights up to
show a voltage is present.
For safety, check all three phase conductors (L1, L2, L3) for the presence of
voltage!
Replace the batteries if the output is weak or reduced.
To make sure to check the PE connection, the installation is not safe if a
signal appears here. Observe the technical safety regulations for working on
electrical systems, especially:
- Safely isolated from the power supply
- Securing to prevent the system from being switched on again
- Checking zero potential, two-pole
- Earthing and short-circuiting
- Securing and covering adjacent live components
Please be aware that even if a visual signal is not displayed, the voltage may
still be present. Differences in the design of the connection socket or the
nature of the insulation (thickness and type) can affect functionality.
Voltage cannot be detected behind panels and metal covers.
Information on maintenance and care
Clean all components with a damp cloth and do not use cleaning agents,
scouring agents, or solvents. Remove the battery(ies) before storing it for
longer periods. Store the evice in a clean and dry place.
