Safety instructions

WARNING

Sources of danger are, e.g. mechanical parts, which can cause serious injury to persons.

There is also a risk to objects (e.g. damage to the device).

WARNING

An electric shock can result in death or serious injury to persons, and also impair the function of the objects (e.g. damage to the device).

WARNING

Never point the laser beam towards the eyes through reflective surfaces, directly or indirectly. Laser radiation can cause irreparable damage to the eyes. The laser beam must be deactivated when measuring close to people.

General safety instructions

Disposal

Dear Testboy customer: by purchasing our product you have the option of returning the device to suitable collection points for electrical scrap at the end of its service life.

The WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC) regulates the return and recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. As of 13.08.2005, manufacturers of electrical and electronic equipment are obliged to take back and recycle any electrical devices sold after this date free of charge. After that date, electrical devices must no longer be disposed of through the "normal" waste disposal channels. Electrical devices must be recycled and disposed of separately. All devices conforming to this directive must feature this logo.

Disposal of used batteries

As an end user, you are legally obliged (battery law) to return all used batteries; disposal as normal domestic waste is prohibited!

Batteries containing contaminant material are labelled with the adjacent symbols indicating prohibition of disposal as normal domestic waste.

The abbreviations used for the respective heavy metals are:

Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury, Pb = lead.

You can return your used batteries free of charge to collection points in your community or anywhere where batteries are sold!

5-year warranty

Testboy devices are subject to strict standards of quality control. If, during the course of normal daily use, a fault should occur, we provide a 5-year warranty (valid only with invoice). We will repair production or material defects free of charge upon return, provided the device has not been interfered with and is returned to us unopened.

Damages resulting from dropping or improper handling are not covered by the warranty.

Furthermore, Testboy GmbH confirms that the test equipment and instruments used during the calibration process are subject to a permanent inspection process.

Declaration of Conformity

The product conforms to the present directives. For more detailed information, go to www.testboy.de

Operation

Thank you very much for deciding on the Testboy® Profi III LED+, a two-pole voltage tester with LED display.

DC voltages of 6 V to 1400 V and AC voltages of 6 V to 1000 V, polarity, rotating field and continuity tests of up to 50 can be carried out and FI/RCD tests.

Because of the high protection class (IP65), the Testboy® Profi III LED+ can also be used under rugged conditions.

Safety instructions

You have decided on a device that provides a high degree of safety. In order to ensure safe and correct application, before initial use, it is necessary to completely read these operating instructions.

The following safety precautions are applicable:

Immediately before using, carry out a function check of the voltage tester (VDE regulation 0105, Part 1). Make sure that the connecting lines and device are fully serviceable. Check the device on a known source of voltage, e.g. 230 V socket.
Hereby, if the display fails to indicate one or more functions, do not use the device and it must be checked by a specialist.
Only hold the device by the handles, avoid touching the probes!
Only carry out checks for isolation from the power supply on both poles!
The device must not be operated in a moist environment!
Do not use with the battery compartment open! Whilst replacing the battery, the measuring probes must be removed from the measurement circuit.
Correct indication is ensured in the temperature range of -10 ^ - +55 ^ .
Always keep the device dry and clean. The housing can be cleaned using a moist cloth.
The additional warning symbol, acoustic indications- and vibration for voltages > 35 V are only for warning of hazardous voltages, not for measurement.
Before the test, check the audibility of the warning sound at the ambient volume.
Immediately replace the batteries when a continuous warning signal sounds when switching on.

General

Voltages have priority. If no voltage is applied at the measuring probes (< 3 V), the device is in the continuous test mode. In stand-by mode, the orange "Rx/Ω" illuminates.

Function

To switch on the device, simply hold the test probes on one another.

Attaching and removing the measuring probe adapter makes it easier to carry out measurements at the socket.

Indication of the voltage is carried out without the batteries.

Self-test

For the test, keep the probes apart. The green "Rx/Ω" LED must clearly illuminate and a beep tone sounds. (After a short period, the device automatically switches off by the "Auto Power Off" function.) If the LED does not illuminate, or only faintly illuminates, replace the batteries.

If the device does not function with the new batteries, it must be protected from misuse.

Checking the DC voltage

When placing the probes on an AC voltage within the rated voltage range, one of the lower (12 V +\~) LED's and the LED arranged above it illuminate according to the voltage applied. The lower LED's indicate the polarity at the test probes in accordance with the identification! (+,-)

If the threshold value of 35 V is exceeded, a signal sounds and lucid vibration can be felt. This indicates a general hazardous voltage!

Checking the AC voltage

When placing the probes on an AC voltage within the rated voltage range, both of the lower (12 V +\~) LED's and the LED's arranged above them illuminate according to the voltage applied. Simultaneous illumination of the lower LED's indicates AC voltage (\~).

If the threshold value of 35 V is exceeded, a signal sounds and lucid vibration can be felt. This indicates a general hazardous voltage!

Phase test

Contact a conductor with the test probe "L2". If a phase is applied, min. 100 V\~, the "<L"-LED illuminates! For determining the phase conductor, the perceptibility of the indication can be impaired, e.g. by insulating fixtures to protect against direct contact in adverse positions, for example on wooden ladders or insulating floor coverings, of a voltage not earthed or also in adverse lighting conditions.

Rotating field test (max. 400 V)

Protective clothing and insulation locations can impair the function.

Hold the complete area of the handles L1 and L2

Place the tip of the probes L1 and L2 on two external conductors (phases) and check to see whether the external conductor voltage of, e.g. 400 V is applied.

A clockwise sequence (phase L1 before phase L2) is present if the "R" LED illuminates.

An anticlockwise sequence (phase L2 before phase L1) is present if the "L" LED illuminates.

Determination of the phase sequence must always be carried out with the probes transposed. Thereby, the phase sequence must change.

Note:

The phase sequence test is possible in earthed AC voltage mains supply from 200 V, 50/60 Hz (phase to phase).

One-hand test

Locking both hand parts is possible by the distance piece on the measurement line. The distance of the measurement probes can be adjusted by simply rotating. (Schuko/CEE)

Lighting of the measurement location

Lighting of the measurement locations is switched on and off by activating the L.H button.

Continuity test

(To switch on, place the test probes on one another)

Place the test probes on the line to test, fuse or similar. For a resistance of 0 - 50 kΩ, the green "Rx/Ω" LED illuminates and an acoustic signal sounds.

FI/RCD trigger test, PE (protective earth test)

The Testboy® Profi III LED+ has a load that makes it possible to trigger a FI/RCD circuit breaker using two buttons (FI\RCD). The FI/RCD (max. 30 mA) is checked between the phase and circuit breaker (max. 240 V).

Replacing the battery

If the batteries are discharged, a warning signal sounds and the device automatically switches off. Immediately replace the batteries in order to ensure accuracy of the measurement values.

To replace the batteries, open the battery compartment on the main housing. Use a screwdriver and release the screws. When inserting the batteries, ensure that the polarity is correct.

Close and attach the battery compartment.

Batteries must not be disposed of as normal domestic waste. There will be a collection point near you!
