VoltAware™ Non-Contact Voltage (NCV)Tester
Instruction Sheet
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Read and understand all of the instructions and safety information in these operating instructions before using this tester.
WARNINGS
To avoid possible electric shock, personal injury or death follow these guidelines:
• Do not use if green light is not illuminating on tester.
• Do not use if tester appears damaged or is not operating properly.
• Do not use tester for more than the rated voltage on the tester.
• Do not use without the tester fully assembled.
• This tester will not detect the presence of DC voltage.
• For indoor use only. Do not use in damp conditions.
• This tester will not detect voltages at a distance, such as through walls, metal conduit, or shielded wire.
• Voltage detection maybe affected by outlet design, insulation thickness/type.
• Do not assume that no voltage indication means the circuit is de-energized.
• Voltages below 40VAC will not be detected by the 61-025 but are still shock hazards that can result in injury or death.
• Use the 3 Point Safety Method. (1) Verify tester operation by measuring a known voltage. (2) Apply tester to circuit under test. (3) Return to the known
live voltage again to ensure proper operation.
• Ensure all fingers are behind finger guard when testing for voltage.
• If this tester is used in a manner not specified by IDEAL, protection provided by the product may be impaired.
• Comply with local and national safety requirements, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment.
Features:
The VoltAware™ NCVtester is useful for identifying hot conductors, finding breaks in wires and detecting the presence of AC voltage at outlets, switches,
electrical panels, wires and cables.
• 61-025 model indicates presence of voltage from 40-1000VAC
• Visual indication of voltage
• Selectable Audible indication of voltage
• Auto shut-off to conserve battery life*
• Low Battery Indicator
• Sleek, compact design
Operation:
• Twist the tester body to the On position.
• Verify the green light is on.
• Verify tester operation on a known voltage source.
• Place the tip of the tester near an AC voltage source to obtain a voltage indication.
• Voltage presence is indicated by a red, flashing light.
• If no voltage is detected for a period of 15 minutes, the tester will flash green three times then shut off automatically.*
Twist the tester body to the Off position, then back to On to reactivate.
Selectable On/Off for Audible Beeper:
• The tester defaults to the audible ON mode.
• To turn the audible Off, depress the dark gray button.
• To turn the audible back On, depress the button again.
Note: Withdraw tester from voltage source before pressing the button. Audible mode can only be changed while
the green indicator is lit.
Low Battery Indicator:
• The tester indicates the low battery condition by turning off the green light. The tester will cease to function.
Battery Replacement:
• With the tester in the middle position, pull apart the two case halves.
• Replace with 2 AAA (LR03) batteries.
• Reverse process to re-assemble tester.
Maintenance:
Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Ensure completely dry before use. If the tester acts erratically, or
the green light is not on, change the batteries.
