Continuity Check; Capacitance Measurement - KPS PF50 Manual De Funcionamiento

conds to obtain stable reading.
• If The LCD display'OL'symbol ,it is indicating open circuit for the tested re-
sistor or the resistance value of resistor is higher than the maximum range
of the meter.
5.6 Diode check
The diode check function used to check diode, transistor and other semicon-
ductor device. In the diode testing, the meter sends a current through the semi-
conductor junction, and then measure the voltage drop across the junction. A
good silicon junction will drop between 0.5V to 0.8V.
1) Set the rotary switch to the
Push key to into diode check mode.
2) Insert the red test lead into the "INPUT" terminal and the black test lead into
the "COM" terminal.
3) For forward voltage drop reading on any semiconductor component, place
the red test lead on the component anode and place the black test lead on
the component cathode. The measured forward drop voltage will show on the
LCD display.
4) Reverse the test lead and measure the voltage across the diode again.
• If diode is good, the display shows 'OL'.
• If diode is shorted, the display shows '0'(zero)in both direction.
• If display shows 'OL' in direction, the diode is open.

5.7 Continuity check

1) Set the rotary switch to the "
2) Press the "FUNC" push button to switch into continuity check mode.
3) Insert the red test lead to the "INPUT" terminal, and then black test lead to
the "COM" terminal.
4) Connect the test lead across with the object being measured. If the resis
ance of a circuit under test is less than 50Ω, the buzzer will sound.

5.8 Capacitance measurement

Las escalas de capacidad del instrumento son 50,00nF, 500,0nF, 5,000uF,
50,00uF y 200,0uF.
PTo measure capacitance, connect the Meter as follows:
1) Set the rotary switch to "
