2. SAFETY NOTES
1. Read the following safety information carefully
before attempting to operate or service the
detector.
2. Use the detector only as specied in this manual.
Otherwise, the protection provided by the detector
may be impaired.
3. This instrument cannot nd the missing line of
earth line (S line).
4. Do not touch the clips during measurements to get
accurate results.
5. Do not pull the cable when removing the
measurement clips from the measured conductors.
It may damage the cable.
6. Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight,
high temperature, humidity, or moisture.
7. Do not use the instrument while it is wet. Keep dry!
8. Never open battery compartment cover while live
detecting.

3. FEATURES
●Protection class: IP40
●895 PR is a phase detector with LED display lights
and beeping buzzer to inform the detection of AC
3-phase sequence.
●Two functions in one unit: open phase and phase
sequence.
● Auto-o󰀨. (5 min Approx.)
●Clipping the right 3-phase lines (up to color) over
the jacket with non-contact sensor clips which
promotes safety during measurement.
●Bright button feature is convenient to make the
indication visible in dimly areas or sun light.
●Back cover magnet feature mounts the
instrument onto a AC distribution panel o󰀨er easy
measurement.
● 3-Phase AC 75 to 1000V is tted for detection.
●Detect frequency range is from 45 to 65 Hz.
●Safety standard:
EN 61010-1 CAT III 1000V / CAT IV 600V
EN 61326-1

6. MEASUREMENT
Before proceeding with measurement, read the safety
notes.
1. Press the power button to turn on the instrument.
All of the LEDS will ash during the 2 seconds. Only
the power LED stays on at the self demonstration
later.
Do not use the instrument when any of the LEDs
do not work.
2. Apex of "▼" mark on each measurement clip hold
on the center of each measurement conductor.
Connect three clips as shown:
Red to L1, Phase-R. White to L2, Phase-S.
Blue to L3, Phase-T.
