OPERATION
4.1 Pretest Procedure
1. Press the Red motor rotation test button and verify that the
Green LED is brightly lit. If it is, the battery is OK. If it is dimly
lit, see Chapter 5 for battery replacement.
2. Connect the “A” (black) and “B” (red) leads on the phase rota-
tion side of the meter to a known AC power source between
100 and 600VAC. Make sure that the “A” LED lights. If it does
not, refer to Chapter 5 of this manual and the discussion on
fuse replacement.
3. Connect the “C” (blue) and “B” (red) leads on the phase rota-
tion side of the meter to a known AC power source between
100 and 600VAC. Make sure that the “C” LED lights. If it does
not, refer to Chapter 5 of this manual and the discussion on
fuse replacement.
4.2 Phase Rotation Tester Operation
1. Connect the test leads to the 3-phase input terminals marked
A-B-C.
2. Connect the alligator clips to the terminals of the 3-phase
power source to be tested. Connecting order is optional.
3. Make sure that all three LEDs (A-B-C) for open phase check
are on. If all are on, there is no open phase power problem.
If LED “A” or “C” are out, verify that power is present using a
voltage tester.

8
Phase & Motor Rotation Tester Model PMR-1
Open phase check LED “A” is not on:
Open phase on terminal where BLACK alligator clip is
connected.
LED “B” is not on:
Open phase on terminal where RED alligator clip is con-
nected.
LED “C” is not on:
Open phase on terminal where BLUE alligator clip is con-
nected.
4. Check the rotating direction by viewing the rotation indicator
LEDs. If the counter clockwise LED is lit, alternate the connec-
tion of two of the three alligator clips.
If the clockwise LED is lit, the phase sequence is A, B and C in
the same order in which the BLACK, RED and BLUE alligator
clips are connected to the power source terminals.
4.3 Motor Rotation Tester Operation
1. Make sure the power is turned OFF on the motor under test
and that no voltage is present.
2. Connect the test leads to the motor input terminals in the
following order: Black to “A”, Red to “B” and Blue to “C”. Then
press the power button (see Figure 2). The power indicator
Green LED should light.
WARNING: If the Red clockwise or counter-clockwise LED is
lit before rotating the motor shaft, it means there is voltage
present. Stop the test, disconnect the test leads and turn off the
external power.
If the clockwise red LED turns on when rotating the motor
shaft in the clockwise direction, it means the 3-phase motor
connection to the power source is in the A-B-C sequence and
the 3-phase motor should rotate clockwise when powered.

Phase & Motor Rotation Tester Model PMR-1

3. Rotate the motor shaft counter-clockwise. If the counter-clock-
wise red LED turns on, it means the 3-phase motor connection
to the power source is in the A-B-C sequence and the 3-phase
motor should rotate clockwise when powered.
4. If you require the motor to rotate counter-clockwise, change
the power source connections to a B-A-C sequence. The
motor should then rotate counter-clockwise when powered.

CHAPTER 5
MAINTENANCE
5.1 Battery Replacement
Always disconnect all leads before replacing a battery
or fuse.
The battery will need to be replaced when the Green LED is dimly lit.
• Remove the screws on the back cover, then open the case. Take
out the battery and replace with a new 9V battery.
(Type NEDA 1604, 6LF22, 6LR61)
• Replace the back cover on the case.
5.2 Fuse Replacement
It is necessary to replace the fuse when the “A” or “C” LED indicator
on the phase rotation side shows no connection (LED is not lit when
power is applied to the A-B-C leads).
• Remove the screws on the back cover, then open the case. With
the circuit board exposed and phase rotation side on the top
(away from you), take out the defective fuse and replace it with a
fuse rated for 200mA at 250V (Cat. #2973.02).
• If the “C” LED (blue lead) did not light, replace the fuse on the
left side (unit face down). If the “A” LED (black lead) did not light,
replace the fuse on the right.
• Replace the back cover on the case.

5.3 Cleaning and Storage
To avoid electrical shock or damage to the meter, do not
get water inside the case.
• Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and detergent
• Do not use abrasives or solvents.
• If the meter is not to be used for a period of longer then 60 days,
remove the battery and store them separately.
