2. Safety Notes
-2-
~

Three functions in one unit, including open
phase, phase sequence and motor rotation
indication.
This model is ideal for installing conveyor lines,
pump systems and interconnected drivers.
Identifies 3-phase sequence and open phase
check.
Battery operated.
Meets IEC 1010(EN61010) safety requirements.
Complete with three large alligator clips.
3. Features

Operation of 3-Phase Rotation Tester :
(1) Connect the test lead to 3-phase input
terminals by R-S-T.
(2) Connect color alligator clips to the terminals
of a 3- phase power source. Connecting
order is optional.
(3) Make sure that all of the three lamps for open
phase check are on. If so, there is no open
phase. When any of the three lamps is not on,
there is open phase.
(4) Check the rotating direction of the rotation
indicator.

RED alligator clip
is connected
Open phase
check lamp
"R" is not on
Open phase on

YELLOW alligator
clip is connected
Open phase
check lamp
"S" is not on
Open phase on

"T" is not on

If the counter clockwise indicator is lit, alternate
the connection two of the three alligator clips.
When the clockwise indicator is lit and the
power source terminals are connected by the
RED, YELLOW and BLUE alligator clips, the
phase sequence indicators (R, S and T) shall
be lit respectively.
Operation of Motor Rotation Tester :
(1) Make sure there is no voltage present.
(2) Connect the test leads to motor input
terminals by L1-L2-L3, and press the power
button (Fig1). The power indicator green
lamp is lit. (If the clockwise or counter
clockwise red indicator is lit before rotating
the motor shaft, it means voltage is present.
Stop measuring. Take off the test leads and
turn off the external power). Rotate the
motor shaft clockwise. If the clockwise
indicator is lit, it means there is a 3-phase
motor connection to the power supply by L1-
L2-L3. The 3-phase motor should be rotated
clockwise.
(3) Connect the leads to 3-phase motor by
L1-L2-L3, and press the power button. The
power indicator green lamp is lit.

Rotate the motor shaft counter clockwise.
If counter clockwise indicator is lit, it means
there is a 3-phase motor connection to the
power supply by L1-L2-L3. The 3-phase
motor should be rotated clockwise.
(4) If you require the motor to rotate counter
clockwise, you should change the
connection to L1-L2-L3. The motor should
be rotated counter clockwise.

6. Maintenance
-8-
Battery Replacement :
(1) It is necessary to replace battery, when green
lamp is dull lit.
(2) Use a screwdriver to unscrew the screw on
the back then open the case(Fig.2), remove
the battery and replace with new battery (type
006P, DC9V).
(3) Reinstall the case.
Fuse Replacement :
(1) It is necessary to replace fuse, when lamp
indicator R or T show no connection, and
change R-S-T is the same.
(2) Use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws on
the back then open the case(Fig.2), remove
the broken fuse and replace with new fuse
(200mA, 250V).
(3) Reinstall the case.
