reinforced insulation.
CAUTION - Risk of Danger! Indicates a WARNING.
Whenever this symbol is present, the operator must
refer to the user manual before operation.
Indicates a risk of electric shock. The voltage at the
parts marked with this symbol may be dangerous.
Indicates Important information to acknowledge
Battery
Ground/Earth
AC or DC
This product complies with the Low Voltage &
Electromagnetic Compatibility European directives.
In the European Union, this product is subject to a
separate collection system for recycling electrical and
electronic components in accordance with directive
WEEE 2012/19/EU.

Phase & Motor Rotation Meter Model 6611 7
1.2 Denition of Measurement Categories (CAT)
CAT IV: Corresponds to measurements performed at the primary
electrical supply (< 1000 V).
Example: primary overcurrent protection devices, ripple
control units, and meters.
CAT III: Corresponds to measurements performed in the building
installation at the distribution level.
Example: hardwired equipment in xed installation and
circuit breakers.
CAT II: Corresponds to measurements performed on circuits
directly connected to the electrical distribution system.
Example: measurements on household appliances and
portable tools.
1.3 Precautions for Use
This instrument complies with safety standard IEC 61010-1.
For your own safety, and to prevent any damage to your
instrument, you must follow the instructions given in this
manual.
This instrument can be used on CAT IV electrical circuits not
exceeding 600 V with respect to earth. It must be used indoors,
in an environment not exceeding pollution level 2, at an
altitude of not more than 6562 ft (2000 m). The instrument can
therefore be used in complete safety on (40 to 850) V three-
phase networks in an industrial environment.
For safety reasons, you must use only measurement leads
having a voltage rating and category at least equal to those of
the instrument and compliant with standard IEC 61010-031.
Do not use if the housing is damaged or not correctly closed.
Do not place your ngers near unused terminals.
If the instrument is used other than as specied in this manual,
the protection provided by the instrument may be impaired.

8 Phase & Motor Rotation Meter Model 6611
Do not use this instrument if it seems to be damaged.
Check the integrity of the insulation of the leads and of the
housing. Replace damaged leads.
Be prudent when working in the presence of voltages
exceeding 60 VDC or 30 VRMS and 42 Vpp; such voltages can
cause a risk of electrocution. The use of individual protections
is recommended in some cases.
Always keep your hands behind the physical guards of the
probe tips or alligator clips.
Always disconnect all leads from the measurement and from
the instrument before opening the housing.
1.4 Receiving Your Shipment
Upon receiving your shipment, make sure that the contents are
consistent with the packing list. Notify your distributor of any
missing items. If the equipment appears to be damaged, le a
claim immediately with the carrier and notify your distributor at
once, giving a detailed description of any damage. Save the
damaged packing container to substantiate your claim.

2. PRODUCT FEATURES
2.1 Description
This three-in-one test tool is a must for any plant maintenance
sta󰀨 and will identify proper sequencing for three phase power
very quickly and easily.
This is also an ideal tool for measuring the proper rotation
of motors, conveyors, pumps and other electrical devices
interconnected on the power line system before installation.
NOTE: The Model 6611 does not require fusing because
the inputs are protected by a high impedance circuit
which limits the current to a safe value.
This meter provides the following functions:
determination of the direction of phase rotation
presence or absence of phase
determination of the direction of rotation of a motor
with or without connection
determination of the activation of a solenoid valve
without connection

3. OPERATION
3.1 Determine Rotary Field Direction
On a three-phase electrical network:
1. Connect one end of the test leads to the Phase & Motor
Rotation Meter, make sure the L1, L2 and L3 test leads are
connected to the corresponding input jacks.
2. Connect the alligator clips to the other end of the test leads.
3. Connect the alligator clips to the three mains phases, PRESS
the ON/OFF Button, the green ON indicator shows that the
instrument is ready for testing.
4. Either the Clockwise or Counterclockwise Rotary indicator
illuminates showing the Type of rotary eld direction present.
5. The rotary indicator lights even if the neutral conductor, N, is
connected instead of the Test lead input jacks.
6. Refer to Figure 2 shown in § 3.3.1 (also shown on the back of
the Phase & Motor Rotation Meter) for more information.

neutral conductor. Refer to the instrument’s back
label (see Figure 2 above) for a summary of the
various display possibilities.
3.4 Non-Contact Rotary Field Indication
1. Disconnect all test leads from the Phase & Motor Rotation
Meter.
2. Position the Indicator on the motor so that it is parallel to the
length of the motor shaft, the Indicator should be one inch or
close to the motor.
3. PRESS the ON/OFF Button, the green ON indicator shows
that the instrument is ready for testing.
4. Either the Clockwise or Counterclockwise Rotary indicator
illuminates showing the Type of rotary eld direction present.
