    Dismantling the cases is forbidden. This operation is limited exclusively to personnel qualified by MADE. 1.2 Following the safety recommendations : DANGER : Indicates a dangerous or potentially dangerous situation which, if not avoided, could cause serious or deadly injuries.
  • Page 4: Dangerous Environments

    1.4 Dangerous environments DANGER : Even though some of the systems supplied by MADE are designed and certified for installation in dangerous environments, several MADE systems are not intended for use in such environments. It is incumbent upon those who install these systems in dangerous environments to determine the acceptability of the system for its environment.

    These operations are carried out on a powered LV network under load. The operating principle of NADIR is that the Transmitter draws a complex signal down the LV feeder, with no disturbances for the connected loads. This signal will be found between the Transmitter connection point and the power source;...

    If the fault persists, contact : NIS, A. T. M. S. or the manufacturer. The NADIR Transmitter monitors its internal voltages, the cooling fan and the overall operation. So as to improve reception, try to connect the Transmitter as close as possible downstream of the point of interest.

    To start the Receiver : Press ON NADIR V3.00 WWW.MADE-SA.COM Tel. : +33.494.083.198 MADE SA The software version number and the telephone number of MADE-SA are shown. To use with the cable pre-identification Transducer • Connect this Transducer • Place the Transducer on the cables, one by one to find the highest signal.
  • Page 11 IDENTIFICATION Level xx % The measurement is made with more sophisticated algorithms in order to better identify the transmitted signal, and integrated over 5 seconds. The SEARCH function enables quick location of the cable sought. The IDENTIFICATION function confirms this for cables and phases with more precision and leaves the signal level value on the screen together with the highest value in the sequence if the Memo Max function is activated.

    Measurement Measurement Measurement with the NADIR Receiver This operation is first done in SEARCH mode, which gives an instantaneous measurement (acquisition time ∼ 2 seconds). During the acquisition, hold the transducer still. When a significant signal is found, change to IDENTIFICATION mode, which gives a measurement integrated over 5 seconds.

Note : Do not put this Transducer around the cable or the screen, only the Phase to be measured, or only the Neutral of the feeder, depending on the Transmitter connection.
