FIVE SECOND TESTS.
SALT & MOISTURE PROOF
NO
CALIBRATION REQUIRED
EXPLOSION PROOF
WATER
PROOF
THE WHITE MAGNETIC
SHIELD
ON THE "MAG-PROBE'S" TIP REDUCES THE CHANCE OF
MAGNETIC FIELDS TURNING IT ON DURING STORAGE AND MUST BE
REMOVED BEFORE USING. REPLACE THE MAGNETIC
SHIELD AFTER USING.
DO NOT STORE THE "MAG-PROBE" NEAR A
PERMANENT MAGNET OR MAGNETIC FIELD.
A "MAG-PROBE" WILL NOT DETECT DEVICES
ENCLOSED IN A MAGNETIC SHIELD. (MOST DEVICES AREN'T
SHIELDED.)
YOU MAY
SELF TEST THE "MAG-PROBE" WITH THE HIGH/LOW SENSITIVITY
RING SUPPLIED WITH EACH UNIT.

TESTING AC & DC DEVICES
WITHOUT
USING THE HIGH/LOW SENSITIVITY
RING
 |
|
1. HOLD THE "MAG-PROBE" AS SHOWN IN FIGURE
2.
2. PLACE THE TIP CLOSE TO OR ON THE SHAFT THAT
PROJECTS THROUGH THE DEVICE'S COIL.
3. OBSERVE
THE LED IN THE "MAG-PROBE'S" HANDLE.
4. IF THE
LED IS ON, THE SOLENOID OR RELAY IS ENERGIZED.
5.
IF THE LED IS OFF, THE SOLENOID OR RELAY IS
DE-ENERGIZED.
6. IF THE LED TURNS ON AND OFF, AND
FLOW THROUGH THE SOLENOID VALVE UNDER TEST IS NOT
INTERRUPTED OR POWER THROUGH A RELAY'S CONTACTS DON'T
TURN ON AND OFF, A MECHANICAL FAILURE HAS
OCCURRED.
7. IF THE LED REMAINS OFF DURING
MACHINE OPERATION, TWO POSSIBLE PROBLEMS
EXIST.
A. NO POWER TO THE
SOLENOID OR RELAY.
B. AN
OPEN COIL
TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM, FIRST TEST THE POWER
SOURCE, THEN THE SOLENOID OR RELAY COIL.
8. IF
TRANSIT PULSES ARE SUSPECTED, HOLD THE PROBE TIP CLOSE
TO OR ON THE SOLENOID OR RELAY AND OBSERVE THE LED
DURING A MACHINE CYCLE, IF TRANSIT PULSES ARE PRESENT
DURING THE TIME THE SOLENOID OR RELAY SHOULD BE OFF, THE
LED WILL FLASH ON AND OFF.
WITH A LITTLE
PRACTICE, YOU'LL KNOW WHEN TO USE THE HIGH/LOW
SENSITIVITY RING IN ORDER TO TEST SUB-MINIATURE AND
SMALLER DEVICES.
IF YOU NEED THE ADDED
SENSITIVITY, INSTALL THE HIGH/LOW SENSITIVITY RING
ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS.
