This instrument can be used on category III electrical circuits not
exceeding 600V with respect to earth. It must be used indoors, in
an environment not exceeding pollution level 2, at an altitude of
not more than 2000m. The instrument can therefore be used in
complete safety on 400V 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 cover of the battery compartment is missing
or if the housing is damaged or not correctly closed.
§Do not place your fingers near unused terminals.
§If the instrument is used other than as specified in this
manual, the protection provided by the instrument may be
impaired.
§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 70Vdc or 33Vrms and 46.7Vpp; 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.
§Always use the specified type of battery.

2. UNPACKING - PACKAGING
All instruments undergo mechanical and electronic testing before
being dispatched. Every precaution is taken to ensure that the
instrument reaches you in good condition. If there is any damage,
inform the carrier immediately.
3. INTRODUCTION
The CA 6609 is designed to facilitate installing three-phase
electrical power supply networks and combines the following
functions in a single instrument:
§Determination of the direction of phase rotation;
§Presence or absence of phase ( if voltage between phases
and neutral is > 100V);
§Determination of the direction of rotation of a motor with or
without connection;
§Determination of the activation of a solenoid valve without
connection.

4. DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTRUMENT
5. USING THE INSTRUMENT
5.1 DIRECTION OF PHASE ROTATION
On a three-phase electrical network:
1. Connect the 3 leads to the instrument, matching the
markings.
2. Connect the 3 alligator clips to the 3 phases of the network to
be tested.
3. Press the ON button. The green indicator indicates that the
instrument is in operation.
4. The clockwise (or anticlockwise) rotation indicator indicates
the direction of phase rotation.

Warning: the wrong direction of rotation may be displayed if a
lead is connected by mistake to the neutral of the network.
The table below (reproduced on the back of the instrument)
summarizes the various display possibilities.

6. INDICATION OF THE DIRECTION OF
THE ROTATING FIELD OR
DIRECTION OF ROTATION WITHOUT
CONNECTION
1. There must be no lead connected to the instrument;
2. Position the instrument on the motor, within 2.5 cm, parallel to
the shaft in the direction indicated by the symbol on the front
panel.
3. Press the ON button. The green indicator indicates that the
instrument is in operation.
4. The clockwise or anticlockwise rotation indicator lights to
indicate the direction of the rotating field.
Note: the instrument does not work on motors controlled by
frequency converters.
