Operating Instructions
Elmo Multi-Tester LED
Art. 0715 53 300
Thank you for purchasing your Elmo Multi-Tester
LED two-pole voltage tester with LED display.
The device can be used to detect DC and AC
voltages of between 12 and 690 V, for polarity,
phase sequence and throughput testing at up to
500 k , and for FI/RCD tests.
The Elmo Multi-Tester LED carries a high protec-
tion rating (IP65), making it suitable for use in
harsh conditions.
Safety Notes
You have selected a device that is designed to
offer you a high degree of safety. It conforms to
standards IEC/EN 61243-3, DIN VDE 0682-401.
In order to ensure that the unit is operated
correctly and safely, read these operating
instructions thoroughly before operating the
device.
The following safety precautions should
be observed
• Check the voltage tester for correct functio-
ning immediately before each use (as per VDE
specification 0105, part 1), by connecting it to
a known voltage source (e.g. a 230 V power
socket). If the indicator shows that one or
more functions are not working correctly, do
not use the device any further, but have it
examined by a qualified service technician.
• Always hold the device by its handles.
Avoid touching the probe tips.
• Note that all testing for no voltage should be
carried out at two poles.
• Trouble-free operation is guaranteed at
temperatures of between –10°C and +50°C.
• Keep the device clean and dry at all times.
The casing may be cleaned by wiping with a
damp cloth.
General points
Voltages have priority. If no voltage is detected
at the probe tips (< 3.0 V), the device is in
throughput testing mode.
1.) Function
The device is always activated.
2.) Self testing
Hold the probe tips together when carrying out
this test. The buzzer on the test device should
sound clearly and the display should show
"Rx/ ". If the LED screen is blank or dimly
illuminated, the batteries must be replaced.
3.) DC voltage testing
When the probe tips are connected to a DC
voltage within the nominal voltage range, the
reading is displayed in volts and the "+" LED
indicator lights up. If a negative voltage is
detected at probe tip "L1", a "–" (minus) symbol
is displayed.
4.) AC voltage testing
When the probe tips are connected to an AC
voltage within the nominal voltage range, the
reading is displayed in volts and the "+ ~ –" LED
indicator lights up.
5.) Phase testing
Bring one of the probe tips into contact with a
conductor, while touching the finger contact
located at the back. When a phase of min.
100 V ~ is connected, the „Pol/L1" LED lights on.
6.) Rotatory field testing
Identify a phase conducting wire as described
in point 5.) Now connect two phase conductors
to the probe tips and touch the finger contact. If
the phase connected to probe tip L2 follows the
