Safety Disclaimer
Only trained and responsible personnel should operate high
voltage equipment. Display warning labels prominently prior to and
during testing. Portable holiday detectors are designed to operate
and maintain an electric current output well below levels which could
cause injury. However, you may experience a mild shock if the test
electrode or ground is touched while the equipment is activated.
Wear rubber or plastic gloves and non-conductive footwear to
minimize potential shock. Keep in mind that the shock prevention
effectiveness of the rubber or plastic glove and footwear is limited to
the condition of their protective surface. Make sure your gloves and
footwear are void of tears and holes and are in good condition.
Use of Portable Holiday Detectors is limited to finding defects in
insulating materials. Testing should be conducted clear of personnel
not involved in the testing procedure. Personnel operating Portable
Holiday Detectors should be aware of the safety limitations imposed by
their environment at all times. Operator should have an assistant to
ensure that unauthorized personnel are kept clear of the testing area.
Danger: Portable Holiday Detectors create an arc or spark. Use
of a Portable Holiday Detector in or around combustible or
flammable environments can result in an explosion. When operating in
any potentially hazardous area, consult with the plant or site safety offi-
cer before proceeding with a holiday detection test in any
potentially hazardous or suspect area.
Portable Holiday Detectors
WARNING....This is a class A product. In a domestic environment
this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may
be required to take adequate measures.
NOTE.... Holiday detectors create a spark during their normal course
of operation when a defect in the pipe coating is found.
This spark will cause radio interference. During the device's passive
or search mode, it qualifies as a class A product.
