Raptor R00191 Operation & User’s Manual

Please read the instruction manual carefully before use and strictly observe the safety rules and warnings listed in the instruction manual. • If the Voltage Detector is not used according to the instructions the protection function provided by the NCVD (Non-Contact voltage detector) may be affected and invalidate any warranties. • Do not use if the LCD display is not illuminated green when switched on. • Before using the Voltage Detector, always test on a known power supply to ensure it’s in good working condition. • When using the Voltage Detector, if the tip does not illuminate or no beeping sound,voltage could still be present. Voltage Detector indicates active voltage in the presence of electrostatic fields of sufficient strength generated from the source (Mains) voltage. If the field strength is weak the Voltage Detector may not provide indication of live voltages. The existence of voltage may be affected by several factors including but not limited to shielded wires / cables, thickness and type of insulation, distance from voltage source, differences in socket design / recessed sockets, condition of the Voltage Detector and batteries. • Always check the Voltage Detector before use to ensure there is no damage. Never use the equipment if any parts are damaged. • Do not use the detector on voltage exceeding the marking on the Voltage Detector. • Extra care should be taken when working with voltages above 30V, due to the risk of electric shock. IMPORTANT: Always follow the Standard Electrical Best Practice guidelines. A copy of these can be found at http://www.hse.gov.uk/electricity Features: 1. Probe (NCV Sensor) 2. Flashlight 3. Signal Indicator 4. LCD Screen 5. Power Switch 6. Sensitivity / Flashlight (with sensitivity indicator) 7. Battery cover Instruction Manual: Power On / Off Press the power switch for more than 1 second, the detector will beep once and the LCD screen will light up green. High / Low Sensitivity When the Voltage Detector is turned on, it will default to ‘Low Sensitivity’ mode (48~1000V AC). High Sensitivity’ mode (12~1000V AC), press the sensitivity / flashlight button. The sensitivity / flashlight button will then light up to show it’s in ‘High Sensitivity’ mode. Flashlight Turn power on. Press the sensitivity / flashlight button and hold for more than 2 seconds. The flashlight will illuminate. The flashlight is turned off by pressing the sensitivity / flashlight key and holding for more than 2 seconds. If the detector has no activity it will automatically turn off after approx 3 minutes. Auto Power Off: After approx 3 minutes without any operation and no signal detection, the Voltage Detector will be automatically shut down to extend the battery life. Low Battery Indicate When the battery voltage drops to less than 2.5 volts, the display will display “ “ Symbol. When the battery voltage drops to less than 2.3 Volts the voltage detector will automatically turn off. When the batteries are low please replace the batteries. Detecting Voltage: AC Detection When the probe is placed near AC voltage the signal indicator will illuminate to show voltage has been detected and also start to beep. The bar-graph on the screen will become higher or lower as the voltage signal intensity is detected and the beep sound will become faster or slower with signal intensity. The detector can be used to detect the live and neutral side within a power point. Example: A Power Socket should be live (right hand side plug pin point) The detector tip will flash red / LCD screen will display red and the beeping will be at a fast rate. The left hand side plug point (neutral). The detector will flash red / LCD will show green and have a slow rate beep. Note: certain covers / insulations can stop the detector from identifying Live / Neutral Technical: Operating voltage: AC Voltage: 12~1000V (50/60Hz) High Sensitivity - 12 ~ 1000V Low Sensitivity - 48 ~ 1000V CAT III - 1000V Application Environment: Operating Temperature: 0~40°C Storage Temperature: -10~50°C Battery: 2 x 1.5V AAA Humidity: ≤ 95% Replacing The Batteries: Rotate the battery cover anti-clockwise (Fig.1) then remove the old batteries. Install the new batteries according to the positive and negative instructions on the underside of the detector (Fig.2). Caution: To avoid electric shock, the battery cover should always be replaced before checking any voltage. Caution / Warning: Risk of Danger. Double Insulated. CAT ||| IEC Over-Voltage Category III CAT III equipment is designed to protect against transients in equipment in fixed-equipment installations, such as distribution panels, feeders and short branch circuits, and lighting systems in large buildings.
