TERMS IN THIS MANUAL :
WARNING
Identifies conditions and actions that could result in
serious injury or even death to the user.
CAUTION
Identifies conditions and actions that could cause
damage or malfunction in the instrument.
WARNING :
This manual contains information and warnings that must be
followed for operating the meter safely and maintaining the meter in
a safe operating condition. If the meter is used in a manner not
specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the meter
may be impaired.
Observe proper safety precautions when working with voltages
above 30 Vrms, 42.4 Vpeak or 60VDC. These voltage levels pose a

The DCA function designed especially for
HVAC/R flame sensor applications. The
0.1A resolution is useful for identifying the
minute current changes in flame detector
applications. Flame signal current check should
indicate steady flame signal of at least 2A
for a rectification type, or 1.5A for an ultraviolet type (8A for self checking systems). If a
flame signal current with inadequate strength
or fluctuation beyond 10%, check the following
to avoid the risk of unwanted flame relay
dropout :
For gas or oil flames (Minipeeper) :
 Low supply voltage
 Detector location
 Defective detector wiring  Faulty Minipeeper
 Dirty viewing windows
For oil flames (Photocell) :
 Detector location & wiring
 Smoky flame or poorly adjusted
air shutter
 Faulty Photocell
 Temperature over 165ºF

For gas flames (Flame Rod) :
 Ignition interference (A flame signal current difference with the
ignition both on and off greater than 0.5A indicates the
presence of ignition interference).
 Insufficient ground (must be at least 4 times the detector area).
 Flame lifting off burner head (ground), or not continuously in
contact with the flame rod.
 Temperature in excess of 600ºF (316ºC) at the flame electrode

out as factory calibration default for countries that only accept
metric units).
CAUTION :
Discharge capacitors before making capacitance measurements. Large
value capacitors should be discharged through an appropriate resistance
load. Using capacitance function in a live circuit will produce false
results and may damage the meter. In many cases the suspected
components must be disconnected from the circuit to obtain accurate
measurement readings.
