3.2 RECOGNITION OF DC OR AC
Both green LED's "+" and "-" light up: AC voltage
The "+" LED lights: DC, positive at the test
prod of the tester
The "-" LED lights: DC, negative at the test
prod of the tester
No LED lights up: no voltage or voltage < 12 V.
3.3 VALUE OF THE VOLTAGE
2 green LED's: 12 V and 24 V
5 red LED's: 50 V, 127 V, 230 V, 400 V and 690 V
The last LED lit gives the level of voltage present.
Lights to 85 % of the nominal voltage.
: Emission of continuous audible buzzer
In case of bright sunlight, the visual percep-
tion of the presence of voltage may be affected.
3.4 SPECIFICATIONS AND DOMAIN OF USE
Voltage detection: 12 V ≤ U ≤ 690 V
Frequency: 0...400 Hz
Maximum voltage in relation to the earth: 600 V
Permitted overload: 1000 Vrms for 30 seconds
Consumption: variable depending on the voltage.
125 µA at 50 V and 1.7 mA at 690 V
Impedance: 400 kΩ
Response time: < 0.5 seconds
Duration of test: unlimited for U ≤ 690 Vrms and tem-
perature < 35°C. From 35 to 55°C limit to 3 minutes.
4 - PHASE/NEUTRAL IDENTIFICATION
Always perform an AUTO-TEST before
using the tester
Bring the test prod into contact with the circuit to
test (one or other or both together). In the presence
of phase (U > 100 V) the "Ph" LED flashes. In
certain cases, the "Ph" LED may light up in the
presence of static charges.
