Frequently Asked Questions - 15 Testboy

How to use the Testboy 15?

Hold the tip of the magnetic controller near the object to be checked. If the lamp lights up, the object is magnetically active. No shutdown of machines is required. Before use, perform a function check with the supplied magnets.

How to replace the batteries?

Lift the battery compartment using a screwdriver at the notch. Insert two AAA 1.5 V batteries observing polarity. Do not dispose of used batteries in household waste.

What does the Testboy 15 detect?

It detects magnetic fields of any type contactlessly, for example: solenoid valves, relays, printed circuit boards, etc.

Do I need to stop machines to perform a test?

No, detection is contactless and does not require stopping machines or devices.

What to do if the tip does not light up?

First check the batteries. If they are depleted, replace them. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

What is the warranty on the Testboy 15?

Testboy offers a 5-year warranty upon presentation of the invoice, covering manufacturing and material defects. Damage from drops or handling errors is excluded.

How to clean and maintain the device?

Clean the device with a dry cloth. Avoid dusty and humid environments. After a temperature change, let the device acclimate for 30 minutes before use.

What are the important safety instructions?

Observe the five safety rules: disconnect, secure against reconnection, verify absence of voltage on two poles, ground and short-circuit, cover adjacent live parts. Never point the laser (if present) into eyes.

How to recycle the device at end of life?

The device is subject to the WEEE directive (2002/96/EC). Return it free of charge to a collection point for electronic waste. Used batteries must also be recycled separately.

Can I use the device on live circuits?

Yes, the device is compliant with overvoltage category CAT III 1000 V according to IEC/EN 61010-1, allowing use on live circuits while following safety instructions.

Funktionskontrolle

An additional source of danger is posed my mechanical parts which can cause severe personal injury.

Objects can also be damaged (e.g., the instrument itself can be damaged).

WARNING

An electric shock can result in death or severe injury. It can also lead to property damage and damage to this instrument.

WARNING

Never point the laser beam directly or indirectly (on reflective surfaces) towards the eyes. Laser radiation can cause irreparable damage to the eyes. You must first deactivate the laser beam when measuring close to people.

General safety notes

WARNING

Unauthorized changes or modifications of the instrument are forbidden – such changes put the approval (CE) and safety of the instrument at risk. In order to operate the instrument safely, you must always observe the safety instructions, warnings and the information in the "Proper and Intended Use" Chapter.

WARNING

Please observe the following information before using the instrument:

Do not operate the instrument in the proximity of electrical welders, induction heaters and other electromagnetic fields.
After an abrupt temperature fluctuation, the instrument should be allowed to adjust to the new temperature for about 30 minutes before using it. This helps to stabilize the IR sensor.
Do not expose the instrument to high temperatures for a long period of time.
Avoid dusty and humid surroundings.
Measurement instruments and their accessories are not toys. Children should never be allowed access to them!
In industrial institutions, you must follow the accident prevention regulations for electrical facilities and equipment, as established by your employer's liability insurance organization.

Please observe the following five safety rules:

1 Disconnect.
2 Ensure that the instrument cannot be turned back on again.
3 Ensure isolation from the main supply voltage (check that there is no voltage on both poles).
4 Earth and short-circuit.
5 Cover neighbouring parts that are under live electrical load.

Proper and intended use

This instrument is intended for use in applications described in the operation manual only. Any other usage is considered improper and non-approved us-age and can result in accidents or the destruction of the instrument. Any misuse will result in the expiry of all guarantee and warranty claims on the part of the operator against the manufacturer.

Remove the batteries during longer periods of inactivity in order to avoid damaging the instrument.

We assume no liability for damages to property or personal injury caused by improper handling or failure to observe safety instructions. Any warranty claim expires in such cases. An exclamation mark in a triangle indicates safety notices in the operating instructions. Read the instructions completely before beginning the initial commissioning. This instrument is CE approved and thus fulfils the required guidelines.

Disposal

For Testboy customers: Purchasing our product gives you the opportunity to return the instrument to collection points for waste electrical equipment at the end of its lifespan.

The EU Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE) regulates the return and recycling of waste electrical and electronics equipment. As of 13/08/2005, manufacturers of electrical and electronics equipment are obliged to take back and recycle any electrical devices sold after this date for no charge. After that date, electrical de-vice must not be disposed of through the "normal" waste disposal channels. Electrical devices must be disposed of and recycled separately. All devices that fall under this directive must feature this logo.

Disposing of used batteries

As an end user, you are legally obliged (by the relevant laws concerning battery disposal) to return all used batteries. Disposal with normal household waste is prohibited!

Contaminant-laden batteries are labelled with the adjacent symbol which indicates the prohibition of disposal with normal household waste.

The abbreviations used for heavy metals are:

$$ \mathbf {C d} = \text { C a d m i u m }, \mathbf {H g} = \text { m e r c u r y }, \mathbf {P b} = \text { l e a d }. $$

You can return your used batteries for no charge to collection points in your community or everywhere where batteries are sold!

Operation

Thank you for choosing a Testboy ^® 15.

It has professional functions for work on all types of magnetic fields:

Non-contact magnetic field detection

The Testboy ^® 15 is capable of detecting magnetic fields of all types using the switching circuitry integrated in its tip. This may include solenoid valves in heating systems or in commercial vehicles, printer relays on circuit boards and many other situations.

As a first step, the batteries should be function tested as described below. Put the tip of the magnetic field tester next to the object to be tested (1). The lamp flashes if the component is electrically activated. It is not necessary to halt machines or devices to carry out test procedures.

Functional check

Remove the testing magnet from the lid of the magnetic field detector and hold close to the probe of the device, which will then light up.

If it does not light up, the batteries should be checked.

Changing the batteries

Insert a screwdriver in to the notch (2) and pry the battery compartment cover off. Make sure you insert the batteries the right way round!

Do not dispose of batteries in normal household rubbish! Use an authorised local collection point!
