Safety Information

• Individual protective equipment should be used if HAZARDOUS LIVE parts in the installation where measurement is to be carried out could be ACCESSIBLE
• This manual contains information and warnings that must be followed for operating the instrument safely and maintaining the instrument in a safe operating condition. If the instrument is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the instrument may be impaired.
• The meter is intended only for indoor use.
• The meter protection rating, against the users, is double insulation per IEC/EN 61010-1 3rd Ed, Category III 1000 Volts AC & DC and Category IV 600 Volts AC & DC.
• Disconnect the test leads from the test points before changing the position of the function rotary switch.
• Never connect a source of voltage with the function rotary switch in , , A, position.
• Do not expose Meter to extremes in temperature or high humidity.
• Never set the meter in , , A, function to measure the voltage of a power supply circuit in equipment that could result in damage the meter and the equipment under test.

Measurement category:

V: Category III 1000 Volts AC & DC, and Category IV 600 Volts AC & DC.

A: Category III 1000 Volts AC & DC, and Category IV 600 Volts AC & DC.

Per IEC 61010-1 3rd Ed. Measurement Category

Measurement Category IV (CAT IV) is for measurements performed at the source of the low-voltage installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple control units.

Measurement Category III (CAT III) is for measurements performed in the building installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, for example, stationary motors with permanent connection to the fixed installation.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper safety precautions when working with voltages above 60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels pose a potential shock hazard to the user. Do not touch test lead tips or the circuit being tested while power is applied to the circuit being measured. Keep your fingers behind the finger guards of the test leads during measurement. Inspect test leads, connectors,

and probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal before using the instrument. If any defects are found, replace them immediately. Only use the accompanied test leads, or replace with the same rating or better.

Making Basic Measurements

CAUTION

Before and after hazardous voltage measurements, test the voltage function on a known source such as line voltage to determine proper meter functioning.

When connecting the test leads to the EUT (Equipment Under Test) connect the common test lead before connecting the live lead; when removing the test leads, remove the test live lead before removing the common test lead.

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock, hazard or damage to meter, do not attempt to measurement that might exceed 1000 V DC or AC RMS. Do not apply more than 1000 V DC or AC RMS to the input terminals.

Note - If the measured voltage is higher than 30 V DC or AC RMS, the display will show "h" symbol.

Measuring Current

• Don't clamp on any conductor while the meter power on.
• ACD-50NAV, ACD-51NAV or ACD-53NAV has only AC current measurement mode.
• Torch lighting when clamping.

CAUTION

Please do not measure current from clamp jaw when temperature probe is connected to meter.

AUTO SENSE mode:

Display measurement result at AC only with RMS value or DC value, it depends on whichever is greater.

• In AutoSense mode, the meter will displays ACW/DCW depends on if there is AC frequency detected.
• ACD-50NAV, ACD-51NAV and ACD-53NAV offer AC power measurement mode only.

Active power sign :

No sign : Indicates the power flows from the power source to the load. " _ " sign : Indicates the power flows from the load to the power source.

Power factor sign :

No sign : The phase of the current signal is lagging behind the voltage signal (inductive load).

"_" sign : The phase of the current signal is leading the voltage signal (capacitive load).

Overrange display :

OLU : Voltage overload

OL.A : Current overload

OLUA : Both Voltage and current overload.

± OL kW: Active Power >1000kW or -1000kW .

2. Three Phase Power Measurement

A. 3 phase 3 wire balanced / unbalanced
Step 1. Set the rotary switch to the "W" position
Step 2. Using the Navigator key to choose the "W" mode.

B. 3 phase 4 wire balanced / unbalanced

Step1. Set the rotary switch to the "W" position

Step2. Using the Navigator key to choose the "W" mode.

Phase Rotation

Note:

• Connect three phase of power source as shown above.
• The test is only available while the system frequency is stable.

Step 1. Set the rotary switch to the "W" position.

Step 2. Using the Navigator key to choose the "RSTI" mode

Step 3. Connect the Red test lead and Black test lead to any of the line conductor (e.g. Red test lead to the phase Line 1, and Black test lead phase Line 3).

Note: If the followings occur, the meter will not be able to determine the line phase:

The screen displays "OLU" and blinking: voltage >1000V

The screen displays "LoU" and blinking: voltage < 30V

The screen displays "outF" and blinking: frequency >65Hz or < 45Hz

Step 4. When the BUZZER beeps twice, change one of the test leads to another line conductor within 3 seconds

The screen will display the result as below:

a) If it displays " 1 2 3 ", then the phase sequence is forward sequence

b) If it displays " 3 2 1 ", then the phase sequence is reversed sequence

c) When displayed "---" means it is unable to determine line phases.
d) If it displays "LoU", it is possible that you remove the test leads before the meter completing its testing procedures.

Step 5. To repeat the test, using the Navigator key and choose the "RST" mode again.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

CAUTION

To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the meter from any circuit, remove the test leads from the input jacks and turn OFF the meter before opening the case. Do not operate with open case. Install only the same type of battery or equivalent

Trouble Shooting

If the instrument fails to operate, check battery, leads, etc., and replace as necessary. Double check operating procedure as described in this user's manual. If the instrument voltage-resistance input terminal has subjected to high voltage transient (caused by lightning or switching surge to the system) by accident or abnormal conditions of operation, the series fusible resistors will be blown off (become high impedance) like fuses to protect the user and the instrument. Most measuring functions through this terminal will then be open circuit. The series fusible resistors and the spark gaps should then be replaced by qualified technician. Refer to the LIMITED WARRANTY section for obtaining warranty or repairing service.

Cleaning and Storage

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use abrasives or solvents. If the meter is not to be used for periods of longer than 60 days, remove the battery and store it separately.

Battery Replacement

1. Remove test leads and turn the Meter OFF.

2. Loosen the screw from the battery access door of the case. Lift the battery access door and thus the battery compartment up.

3. Replace the battery (9V alkaline battery NEDA1604A, JIS6AM6 or IEC6LF22).

4. Put the battery access door back and re-fasten the screw.

CAUTION

Remove test leads from Meter before opening the battery cover or Meter case.
