1. Safety instructions:

- Hold the voltage tester only by the insulated handles A and B and do not touch the contact electrodes (probe tips) !

- Immediately before use: Check the voltage tester for correct operation! (see chapter 3). The voltage tester must not be used if one or several display functions fail or if the voltage tester is not ready to operate (IEC 61243-3)!

- The voltage tester must be used only within the nominal voltage range of 12 V up to AC/ DC 1000 V!

- The voltage tester complies with protection class IP 64 and therefore can also be used under wet conditions (designed for outdoor use).

- For testing, firmly grasp the voltage tester by the

handles A and B.

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible operating time = 30 s)!

- The voltage tester only operates correctly within the temperature range of -10 °C up to +55 °C at relative air humidity of 20 % up to 96 %.

- Do not dismantle the voltage tester!

- Please protect the housing of the voltage tester

against contamination and damages!

- Please store the voltage tester under dry

conditions.

- To prevent injuries provide the contact electrodes (probe tips) with the enclosed cover after using the

2. Functional description

The DUSPOL® 1000 is a two-pole voltage tester according to IEC 61243-3 with visual display  and without own power supply. The voltage tester is designed for DC and AC voltage tests within the voltage range of 12 V up to AC/ DC 1000 V. It can be

used to perform polarity tests in DC and phase tests in AC. The voltage tester indicates the phase-sequence provided that the neutral is earthed. The voltage tester consists of the test probes L1 A and L2 B and a connecting cable . The test probe L1 A is equipped with a display . Both test probes are provided with push buttons . Without pressing both push buttons, the following voltage steps (AC or DC) can be indicated: 50 V+; 50 V-; 120 V; 230 V; 400 V; 690 V; 1000 V. By pressing both push buttons, the voltage tester switches to a lower internal resistance (suppression of inductive and capacitive voltages). Thus, also the indication of 12 V+ and 12 V– is activated. Furthermore, a vibrating motor (motor with a flyweight) is put under voltage. From approximately 200 V this motor is set in rotation. With the voltage increasing, the motor’s speed and vibration increases as well so that additionally by means of the handle of test probe L2 B the voltage value can be estimated roughly (e.g. 230/ 400 V). The duration of the test with a lower internal resistance of the device (load test) depends on the value of the voltage to be measured. To prevent excessive warming of the voltage tester, it is equipped with a thermal protection (reverse control). With this reverse control, the speed of the vibrating motor

decreases as well.

Display field

The display system consists of high-contrast lightemitting diodes (LED)  indicating DC and AC voltages in steps of 12 V; 50 V; 120 V; 230 V; 400 V; 690 V 1000 V . The indicated voltages are nominal voltages. With DC voltage, the LEDs also indicate the polarity for 12 V and 50 V (see chapter 5). The 12 V LED can only be activated by pressing both push buttons.

LC display

The LC display  serves for the phase test with alternating current (AC) and indicates the phasesequence of a three-phase mains.

3. Functional check

- The voltage tester must be used only within the nominal voltage range of 12 V up to AC/ DC 1000 V!

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible operating time = 30 s)!

- Check the voltage tester for correct function immediately before use!

- Test all functions by means of known voltage sources.

• For DC voltage tests use e.g. a car battery.

• For AC voltage tests use e.g. a 230 V socket.

Do not use the voltage tester unless all functions are operating correctly! Check the function of the LC display  by single-pole connection of the contact electrode of the test probe L1 A to an external conductor (phase).

4. How to test AC voltages

- The voltage tester must be used only within the nominal voltage range of 12 V up to AC 1000 V!

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible operating time = 30 s)!

- Firmly grasp the insulated handles A and B of the test probes L1 and L2.

- Place the contact electrodes  of the test probes L1 A and L2 B against the relevant points of the

unit under test.

- For AC voltages from 50 V onwards and when pressing both push buttons (load test) from 12 V onwards, the LEDs “plus” and “minus”  and  light up. Furthermore, all LEDs light until the step value of the applied voltage is reached.

- When pressing both push buttons  and from an applied voltage of approx. 200 V onwards, a vibrating motor is put in rotation inside the test probe L2 B. With the voltage increasing, the speed of this motor is increasing as well.

Please make sure that you touch the voltage tester at the insulated handles of test probes L1 A and L2 B only! Do not cover the display and do not touch the

contact electrodes !

4.1 How to test the phase at AC voltage

- The voltage tester must be used only within the nominal voltage range of 12 V up to AC 1000 V!

- The phase test is possible in the earthed mains from 230 V onwards!

- Firmly grasp the handle of test probe L1 A.

- Place the contact electrode  of test probe L1 A against the relevant point of the unit under test.

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible operating time = 30 s)!

- If the “R” symbol appears on the LC display ,

the tester is in contact with the live phase of an

AC voltage on this point of the unit under test. Never touch the contact electrode of test probe L2 B during the single-pole test (phase test)!

Note:

The reading of the LC display  might be impaired due to unfavorable light conditions, protective clothing or in insulated locations.

Attention:

The absence of voltage can be detected by means of a bipolar test only.

5. How to test DC voltages

The voltage tester must be used only within the

nominal voltage range of 12 V up to DC 1000 V!

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible

operating time = 30 s)!

- Firmly grasp the insulated handles A and B of

the test probes L1 and L2.

- Place the contact electrodes  of the test probes

L1 A and L2 B against the relevant points of the

unit under test.

- For AC voltages from 50 V onwards and when

pressing both push buttons (load test) from 12 V

onwards, the LEDs “plus” and “minus”  and 

light up. Furthermore, all LEDs light until the step

value of the applied voltage is reached.

- When pressing both push buttons  and from

an applied voltage of approx. 200 V onwards, a

vibrating motor is put in rotation inside the test

probe L2 B. With the voltage increasing, the

speed of this motor is increasing as well. Please make sure that you touch the voltage tester at the insulated handles of test probes L1 A and L2 B only! Do not cover the display and do not touch the

contact electrodes!

5.1 How to test the polarity at DC voltage

- The voltage tester must be used only within the

nominal voltage range of 12 V up to DC 1000 V!

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible

operating time = 30 s)!

- Firmly grasp the insulated handles A and B of

the test probes L1 and L2.

- Place the contact electrodes  of the test probes

L1 A and L2 B against the relevant points of the

unit under test.

- If LED  lights up, the “positive pole” of the unit

under test is at test probe A.

- If LED  lights up, the “negative pole” of the unit

under test is at test probe A. Please make sure that you touch the voltage tester at the insulated handles of test probes L1 A and L2 B only! Do not cover the display and do not touch the

contact electrodes!

6. How to test the phase sequence of a three-

phase mains

- The voltage tester must be used only within the

nominal voltage range of 12 V up to AC 1000 V!

- The phase-sequence test is possible from 230 V

AC voltage (phase against phase) onwards in a

earthed three-phase mains.

- Firmly grasp the insulated handles A and B of

the test probes L1 and L2.

- Place the contact electrodes  of the test probes

L1 A and L2 B against the relevant points of the

unit under test.

- The LEDs have to indicate the external conductor

voltage.

- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for

longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible

operating time = 30 s)!

- When contacting the two contact electrodes 

with two phases of a three-phase mains connected

in clockwise rotation, the LC display  indicates

the “R” symbol. If for two phases the rotation is

anti-clockwise, no symbol appears on the LC

display. The phase-sequence test always requires a countertest! If the LC display indicates clockwise rotation for two phases of a three-phase mains, those two phases must be contacted again with reversed contact electrodes  during the counter-test. There must be no symbol indicated on the LC display  during the counter-test. If in both cases the LC display  indicates the “R” symbol, the earthing is too weak!

Note:

The reading of the LC display  might be impaired due to unfavorable light conditions, protective clothing or in insulated locations.
