5. Instruccions de funcionament
This section details the various measurement functions of the VOLTCRAFT VC-11889355 voltage provador.
5.1 voltagMesura (CA/CC)
- Connect both test probes to the circuit to be measured.
- El voltage will be indicated by bright LEDs in ranges from 12 V to 690 V.
- The precise effective value will be displayed on the LCD with backlight.
- The tester supports measurements up to 1000 V AC and 1200 V DC.
5.2 Prova de continuïtat
- Assegureu-vos que el circuit estigui desenergitzat abans de realitzar una prova de continuïtat.
- Connect the two test probes across the component or circuit path you wish to test.
- An audible signal and/or visual indication on the display will confirm continuity.
5.3 RCD (FI) Test Function
- This function allows testing of Residual Current Devices (RCDs).
- Follow specific instructions in the full manual for safe and effective RCD testing, as this typically involves applying a load to trip the RCD.
5.4 Single-Pole Phase Test
- To identify a live phase conductor, touch only one test probe (usually the L1 probe) to the conductor.
- The tester will indicate the presence of a phase voltage, typically through an LED or display symbol.
5.5 Phase Order Display
- For three-phase systems, this function helps determine the correct phase rotation.
- Connect the probes to the phases as indicated by the device. The display will show the phase order.
5.6 Mesura de la Resistència
- Assegureu-vos que el circuit estigui desenergitzat abans de mesurar la resistència.
- Connect the test probes across the component whose resistance you wish to measure.
- The resistance value will be displayed on the LCD.
5.7 Integrated Measurement Point Illumination
- The tester includes a built-in light to illuminate the measurement point in dimly lit environments.
- Activate this feature using the designated button on the device.
5.8 Alarma de vibració
- In addition to audible and visual indicators, the device features a vibration alarm to alert the user to the presence of voltage, especially useful in noisy environments.
6. Manteniment
6.1 Neteja
- Clean the device regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth.
- No utilitzeu netejadors abrasius ni dissolvents.
6.2 Substitució de la bateria
- Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display or if the device does not power on.
- Refer to Section 4.1 for battery installation instructions.
- Eliminar les bateries usades d'acord amb la normativa local.
