Alternating Current Dangerous Voltage Underwriters Laboratories.[Note: Canadian and US.] Do not dispose of this product as unsorted municipal waste. FOR USE BY COMPETENT PERSONS Anyone using this instrument should be knowledgeable and trained about the risks involved with measuring voltage, especially in an industrial setting, and the importance of taking safety precautions and of testing the instrument before and after using it to ensure that it is in good working condition. Safety Information WARNING: Use extreme caution when testing live electrical circuits due to risk of injury from electrical shock. Warnings and Precautions • The VP-440 conforms to IEC 61010-031:2002; CAT IV 1000 V, class II, pollution deg.2 and UL 61010-031. • Operation 1. Apply the plastic tip to any connection point or move it along an insulated cable. 2. When an AC voltage is detected, the red indicator in the plastic tip will illuminate. A steady glow (not flash) indicates voltage presence. If there is no indication, voltage could still be present. Operation may be affected by differences in socket design and insulation thickness and type. VoltProbe Refer to the manual Introduction The VP-440 VoltProbe is an instrument for safely checking the presence of an AC voltage without making any disconnections in cables, wall sockets, fuses, circuit breakers, junction boxes, etc. No current flow is needed for correct operation. This instrument is IEC 61010-031 certified for Installation Category IV (1000V). It is recommended for use in distribution level and fixed installations, as well as lesser installations, and not for primary supply lines, overhead lines and cable systems. Warnings and Precautions • Do not exceed the maximum overload limits (see specifications) nor the limits marked on the instrument itself. Never apply more than 1000 V ac rms. • Observe the proper safety precautions when working with voltages above 30 VAC rms to avoid electrical shock hazard. • Before and after hazardous voltage measurements, test the detector on a known source such as line voltage to determine proper operation. • Never ground yourself when taking measurements. Do not touch exposed circuit elements. Caution: If three phase equipment is being checked and one phase is open, the voltage is conducted back to the defective fuse through the other fuses and will give a faulty indication. Maintenance and Repair If there appears to be a malfunction during the operation of the meter, the following steps should be performed in order to isolate the cause of the problem: 1. Check the battery. 2. Review the operating instructions for possible mistakes in operating procedure. Except for the replacement of the batteres, repair of the voltage detector should be performed only by a Factory Authorized Service Center or by other qualified instrument service pe rsonnel. The front panel and case can be cleaned with a mild solution of detergent and water. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and allow to dry completely before using. Do not use aromatic hydrocarbons or chlorinated solvents for cleaning. Battery Replacement RotateBattery battery cap CCW to remove.
