Operating Manual for TRITEST
Non-Contact Phase/Phase Sequence Tester
Before using the TRITEST
the operating manual and absolutely observe the safety instructions!
1. Safety instructions
- Check the phase/phase sequence tester for correct functioning immedi-
ately before and after using it (see chapter 3)! Do not use the tester, if one
or more indications are not working or if it does not seem to be ready for
operation!
- During the tests, touch the tester at the red handle behind the grip limit
only and do not touch the white probe tip
- The tester must be used only within the stated nominal voltage range from
200 to 1,000 V AC and in earthed mains supply circuits of overvoltage cat-
egory CAT III 1,000 V or CAT IV 600 V for phase-to-earth measurements.
- The TRITEST
external conductor voltages from approx. 200 V alternating voltage (AC)
on. Direct voltage (DC) fields will not be detected!
- Please observe that work on live parts and electrical components of all
kinds is dangerous! Even low voltages of 30 V AC and 60 V DC may be
dangerous to human life!
- The TRITEST
a two-pole voltage tester such as e.g. the DUSPOL
sence of voltage.
- The following factors might affect the correct functioning of the phase test
and phase sequence test:
- excessive distance to the phase (external conductor) to be tested
- excessive insulation and shielding of the phase (external conductor)
- protective clothing and insulating conditions on site
- constructional differences of sockets / CEE couplings with recessed
contacts, e.g. 63 A CEE coupling
- mains failures or lacking mains quality
- battery condition
- Do not operate the device with the battery compartment being open.
- The tester is designed for being used by qualified electricians and under
safe working conditions.
- The tester must be protected against contamination and damaging of the
housing surface.
