Connect one end of the test leads to the meter. Make sure the L1, L2, and L3 test leads are connected to the corresponding input jacks. Connect the test probes to the other end of the test leads.
Phase Indication Table Non-contact Rotary Field Indication 1. 2. Disconnect all test leads from the unit. Position the unit on the motor so that it is parallel to the length of the motor shaft. The unit should be one inch or closer to the motor, and the bottom of the unit should be oriented towards the drive shaft. See Figure 1. (Figure 1) Motor Rotation 3. Press the ON/OFF button. The green ON indicator shows that the instrument is ready for testing. 4.
Motor Test Requirements See below for the minimum motor diameter and number of pole pair needed to obtain a reliable test result. • Number of pole pair • Rotary number of rotary field (1/min) at frequency (HZ) • Angle between poles • Minimum diameter of motor case Determining the Motor Connection 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Connect one end of the test leads to the unit. Make sure the L1, L2, and L3 test leads are connected to the corresponding jack. Connect the alligator clamps to the other end of the test leads.
Battery Replacement If this unit does not turn on, or shuts off during use, the battery needs to be replaced. To replace the battery, follow these steps. 1. Place this unit face down on a nonabrasive surface and loosen the battery-door screw with a screwdriver. 2. Lift the battery access lid away from the unit. 3. Remove the battery and replace with new 9V batteries. Observe the battery polarity shown in the battery compartment. 4. Secure the battery access lid back in position with the screw.
