2.0 Transport and Storage
Please keep the original packaging for later transport. Any transport damage due to faulty packaging will be
excluded from warranty claims.
In order to avoid instrument damage, it is advised to remove battery when not using the instrument over a
certain time period. However, should the instrument be contaminated by leaking battery cells, you are kindly
requested to return it to the factory for cleaning and inspec-tion.
The instrument must be stored in dry and closed area. In the case of an instru-ment being transported in extreme
tem-peratures, a recovery time of minimum 2 hours is required prior to instrument operation.
These devices (except for the models with support) should be installed on the wall, at the centre of the room,
about 2 m. above ground level (avoid positioning at corners; the air captured and treated by the device must be
allowed to circulate through the room unhindered). The final result of the disinfection is however related to a
higher or lower value of the outside contribution of germs in the air during UV disinfection. To install the device
on the wall use the two triangular brackets enclosed in the packaging. Screw the brackets to the threaded holes
on the back side of the device by use of bolts (M6x10) enclosed in the packaging. Make nr 2 holes on the wall by
checking the centre distance between the brackets. Secure the device to the wall by means of two expanding
wall plugs (Ø 8 ÷ Ø10 mm.) (not provided).
3.0 Safety References
The respective accident prevention regulations established by the pro-fessional associations for
electrical systems and equipment must be strictly met at all times.
In order to avoid electrical shock, the valid safety and VDE regulations regarding excessive contact
voltages must receive utmost attention, when working with voltages exceed-ing 120V (60V) DC or 50V
(25V)rms AC. The values in brackets are valid for limited ranges (as for example medicine and agriculture).
Measurements in dangerous prox-imity of electrical systems are only to be carried out in compliance
with the instructions of a responsible electronics technician, and never alone.
If the operator’s safety is no longer ensured, the instrument is to be put out of service and protected
against use. The safety is no longer insured, if the instrument:
• shows obvious damage
• does not carry out the desired measurements
• has been stored for too long under unfavourable conditions
• has been subjected to mechanical stress during transport.
The instrument may only be used within the operating ranges as spec-ified in the technical data section.
Avoid any heating up of the instrument by direct sunlight to ensure perfect functioning and long
instrument life.
The instrument may only be used under those conditions and for those purposes for which it was
conceived. For this reason, in particular the safety references, the technical data including enviromen-tal
conditions and the usage in dry environments must be followed.
When modifying or changing the instrument, the operational safety is no longer ensured.

5.0 Carry out measurements
General Information to carry out meas-urements
Measurements in dangerous prox-imity of electrical systems are only to be carried out in compliance
with the instructions of a responsible electronics technician, and never alone.
Instruments may only be touched at handle surfaces provided. Abso-lutely avoid the direct contact of
the test probes.
Measurements have to be carried out by respecting the standards.
5.1 Voltage Measurement
The lamp tester LT1 allows AC voltage tests between 60-250V
To avoid electrical shock, the valid safety measures and VDE directives strictly have to be met
concerning excessive contact voltage when working with voltages exceeding 120V (60V) DC or 50V
(25V)rms AC. The values in brackets are valid for limited areas (such as e.g. medicine, agriculture).

A correct indication is only ensured for AC voltage circuits with a fre-quency of 40-60 Hz being grounded in
accordance with the regulations.
The quality of the indication may be impaired when testing in unfavour-able locations, such as wooden
lad-ders or in insulated floor coverings.
Test voltage tester function prior to testing on a known voltage source.
Never use the lamp tester under the influence of moisture and water.
5.2 Lamp Test
Hold the test probe against the glass body or a contact pin/cable end and press the Test button for the duration
of the test.
Testing low pressure sodium vapor tubes
Test tube by contacting the socket pins with test probe and observe if the inner tube is glowing. In some cases,
only part of the tube is glowing. The other part should be lit when the test probe con-tacts the second pin.
Testing high pressure sodium vapor tubes
Touch tube with test probe. A clear, blue line within the arched tube indicates that the tube is in perfect
condition. Any other test results indicates a defective tube.
Testing Neon Tubes
Touch the test probe to the lamp tube or the contacts on the cap and press the Test button. Replace the lamp if
it does not light up.
Testing mercury vapor and metal halogen lamps
Touch a contact of the lamp with the test tip and press the Test button. A slightly bluish and diffused glow must
be visible inside the lamp. If, on the other hand, no glow appears or the glow appears very dark violet or reddish
or the glow is not diffuse but strongly constricted, the lamp is defective.
Please make sure that you only carry out this test when the lamp has cooled down to room temperature.
Otherwise there is a risk of burns. It is also possible that the luminous effect will be distort-ed.
When testing low pressure UV lamps, high output UV lamps and UV medium pressure lamps light in the visible
band-width is created, but no strong UV radia-tion. Due to this no special protection of the eyes and the skin is
necessary. Small amounts of ozone can also be produced.
Touch contact electrode during voltage test.
Connect test probe to UUT (unit under test). Illumination of the LED voltage/continuity indicates the sence of an
AC voltage between 60 and 250 V. Simultaneously an acoustic sound is audible.
Do not touch the contacts of the lamp, not even with objects. This can lead to ambiguous results.
Testing Fluorescent Tubes
If the lamp can be made to light up with the lamp tester but does not light up when installed, the filaments or
the bal-last may be defective. The filaments and the wiring to the lamp can be checked with the continuity
tester. The ballast unit must not be connected for this pur-pose (risk of destruction).
Before testing a lamp, make sure that the lamps to be tested are de-energised. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to the user and the appliance/lamp tester may be caused.

5.3 Continuity / Diode Test
For continuity tests, test probe and one hand touches the voltage free Electrode of the Lamp Tester.
The continuity test facility enables re-sistance tests between 0 and approx 5 MΩ. The resistance value can be
de-termined by the intensity and the sound level of the acoustic signal. A higher sound level indicates a lower
resistance value (approx. 0Ω). Simultaneously the LED Continuity is illuminated.
The diode testing is carried out in the same way. The negative test voltage pole is connected to the test probe,
whereby the hand represents the pos-itive pole.
Test probe connected to the diode cath-ode, hand connected to anode - the LED continuity is illuminated.
Test probe connected to the diode an-ode, hand connected to cathode – no LED and no acoustic signal is
indicated.
• Hold the lamp tester in one hand. The thumb must touch the “electrode” button.
• The other side of the test object must be touched with one finger of the second hand.
Prior to any continuity test, it must be ensured that the resistance to be measured is not live. Failure to
com-ply with this prescription can lead to dangerous user injuries.
