1. Safety instructions:
- Hold the voltage tester only by the insulated
handles and 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 690 V/ DC
750 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 and .
- 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 and discharge of the battery,
provide the contact electrodes (probe tips) with
the enclosed cover after using the voltage tester!
Attention:
After maximum load (i.e. after a measurement of 30
seconds at AC 690 V/ DC 750 V), the voltage tester
must not be used for a duration of 240 seconds!
The voltage tester is marked with international electric
symbols and symbols for indication and operation with
the following meaning:

2. Functional description
The DUSPOL
®
compact 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 690 V/ DC 750 V. It
can be used to perform polarity tests in DC.
The voltage tester consists of the test probes L1
and L2 and a connecting cable
. The test
probe L1 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: 24 V+; 24 V-;
50 V; 120 V; 230 V; 400 V; 690 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. 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.
Display field
The display system consists of high-contrast light-
emitting diodes (LED)
indicating DC and AC
voltages in steps of 12 V; 24 V; 50 V; 120 V; 230 V;
400 V; 690 V. The indicated voltages are nominal
voltages. With DC voltage, the LEDs also indicate the
polarity for 12 V and 24 V (see chapter 5). The 12 V
LED can only be activated by pressing both push
buttons.
3. Functional check
- The voltage tester must be used only within
the nominal voltage range of 12 V up to
AC 690 V/ DC 750 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!
4. How to test AC voltages
- The voltage tester must be used only within the
nominal voltage range of 12 V up to AC 690 V!
- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for
longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible
operating time = 30 s)!
- Firmly grasp the insulated handles and of
the test probes L1 and L2.
- Place the contact electrodes
of the test probes
L1 and L2 against the relevant points of the
unit under test.
- For AC voltages from 24 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.
Please make sure that you touch the voltage tester at
the insulated handles of test probes L1 and L2
only! Do not cover the display and do not touch the
contact electrodes!
5. How to test DC voltages
- The voltage tester must be used only within the
nominal voltage range of 12 V up to DC 750 V!
- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for
longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible
operating time = 30 s)!
- Firmly grasp the insulated handles and of
the test probes L1 and L2.
- Place the contact electrodes
of the test probes
L1 and L2 against the relevant points of the
unit under test.
- For AC voltages from 24 V onwards and when
pressing both push buttons (load test) from 12 V
onwards, the LEDs “plus” and “minus”

value of the applied voltage is reached.
Please make sure that you touch the voltage tester at
the insulated handles of test probes L1 and L2
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 750 V!
- Never connect the voltage tester to voltage for
longer than 30 seconds (maximum permissible
operating time = 30 s)!
- Firmly grasp the insulated handles and of
the test probes L1 and L2.
- Place the contact electrodes
of the test probes
L1 and L2 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 .
- If LED
lights up, the “negative pole” of the unit
under test is at test probe .
Please make sure that you touch the voltage tester at
the insulated handles of test probes L1 and L2
only! Do not cover the display and do not touch the
contact electrodes!
