  • Page 3: Safety Rules

    SAFETY RULES CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK This tester has been designed with your safety in mind. However, no design can completely protect against incorrect use. Electrical circuits can be dangerous and/or lethal when lack of caution or poor safety practices are used.
  • Page 4: Safety Checks

    SAFETY CHECK Before using the tester check the condition of the test leads and the fuses. The test leads must be free of cracks or any damages and must be insulated as when they were new. Fuse replacement is described later in this user's manual.. When changing the fuses by removing the cover to access the internal circuitry, always disconnect the test leads.
  • Page 5: General Description

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION A new generation of Modern Digital Multi-Function Testers is born. These Testers have a range of new features not even found in Expensive Advanced Test Equipments. Not only Rugged, but designed to excel in Harsh environment, still, remaining low cost and affordable. They can be operated with rechargeable batteries, alkaline or low cost general purpose batteries.
  • Page 6: Brief Product Description For Insulation Tester

    BRIEF PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Insulation Tester has all the basic features needed to check and certify an electrical installation. The buzzer feature is always ON. The Batteries are tested at startup. It complies to all good Standards. The Test Button is utilized to switch the Instrument On as well as to start or stop the test.
  • Page 7: Brief Product Description For Multifunction Tester

    The Multifunction Tester has the features of the Insulation Tester plus the MOV and GAS Arrester Test. To access the MOV test, You need the depress the 1000V and 500V keys Simultaneously And To access the GAS Arrester Test, you need to depress the 250V and Ohm Key simultaneously.

    FEATURES ON Key. When Depressing the ON button, the tester starts up. The tester will automatically make a battery test (under load condition) and display the results. After that, the voltmeter is automatically selected. If voltage is present, the tester will automatically display it on the display and disable all other features until the voltage is removed from the terminals.
  • Page 10 250V, 500V, 1kV Insulation Resistance Tests When an Insulation Resistance Test is selected, the first thing the tester requires, is for you to connect the leads to the circuit under test. If the circuit is not voltage free, the tester will go back to the safety voltmeter until you insulate the circuit under test from any voltage source.
  • Page 11 OFF Key (Auto OFF always present) The OFF key is a software key which is activated When the 1kV key is depressed for more than 5 seconds ( provided no test is in progress and everything is discharged. The 1kV key, when depressed for more than 5 Sec, will switch the tester OFF, Or stop the test in progress.
  • Page 12: Pre-Testing Safety

    PRE-TESTING SAFETY Always check the fuse before using the instrument. This is done by shorting the test leads and selecting the Continuity test. Use this, to null the test leads resistance at the same time. Always clip securely the leads onto the circuit under test. DO NOT JUST TOUCH IT as this could make intermittent contact and therefore the safety features may not work all the times because the connections may not be present at all times.
  • Page 13: Operating Instructions

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Leads Connections The Test Leads are color coded for easy use. These testers only use 2 leads which are located on both back extremities of the front panel. The user can vusualy check these connections at any time. FUNCTIONS When Depressing the "ON-TEST"...
  • Page 14 As ADDED SAFETY, this Auto-Hold helps the user taking measurement without watching the display. The user can focus instead, on it's hands and test leads. AUTO-HOLD is always enabled, VOLTMETER the tester will automatically HOLD the last valid AUTO-HOLD reading, which mean that when the user touch a voltage, that voltage is held on the display even after un-touching the voltage.
  • Page 15 Pressing the 1000V and 500V keys simultaneously will select the MOV Test. Today's new Equipments and Electrical Installations are generally Protected by MOVs. It is now easy to test these devices to ensure their proper working and replace them if found damaged. The knee Voltage is shown on the display.

  • Page 18: Very Important Automatic Features

    VERY IMPORTANT AUTOMATIC FEATURES Automatic Vac-dc Detect. All of these testers in this family have the capability to detect Voltage AC and This is done with the use of the internal safety voltmeter which does this work. However, this feature will only work if the test leads are securely connected to the circuit under test.

  • Page 20: Principle Of How They Work And Results

    PRINCIPLE OF HOW THEY WORK-DISPLAYS-RESULTS This family if Test instruments operate through a keypad interface. The number of keys and their function are different on each model. All interactions between the user and the instrument is done via the keypad. The testers have a liquid Crystal Display and two or three terminals.
  • Page 21 INSULATION It has three insulation test Voltages. 250, 500 and 1000V, all of theses are capable of giving more than 1mA at their nominal voltages. 250V Key to select 250Vdc insulation test voltage. 500V Key to select 500Vdc insulation test voltage. 1000V key to select 1000Vdc insulation test voltage.
  • Page 22 DIGITAL CALIBRATION This family of testers are digitally calibrated. That mean that there have no potentiometers or moving part in this product. All the correction factors are saved into the internal memory. BATTERIES The testers can work with 8 x 1.5V batteries. The user can also use rechargeable batteries in the same product.
  • Page 23: Preparation For Use

    PREPARATION FOR USE Fuses: In doubt, check the fuses using a ohm meter. Please note that this instrument will not indicate anything, should the fuses be blown. Please note that this instrument will be unsafe if the fuse is blown as no indication will be shown and nothing will be detected by it.
