Properties
• An instrument for checking magnetism that is easy to use with no
metallic contact.
Some Examples Of Use
• Testing operating solenoid valves in pneumatic and hydraulic control
equipment.
• Testing relays with coils and electrically controlled solenoid valves in
all types of vehicles and machines.
• Testing solenoid valves when servicing oil burners.
• The test lamp lights immediately and without metallic contact where
there is a magnetic field, e.g. an activated coil in a solenoid valve.
The test lamp responds to all types of magnetic fields – from
alternating current and direct current to permanent magnets.
Instructions For Use
• First check the batteries according to the "Function Check"
instructions below.
• Just touch the test object with the Magnetic Stick probe. If the lamp
lights, the object exhibits a magnetic field.
• It is not necessary to unscrew the test object from its mounting on the
equipment in order to carry out the test. A magnetic coil can even be
tested through its protective cover.
• It is not necessary to stop the machine or the equipment in order to
carry out the test.
• Sometimes stray magnetic fields from other nearby equipment may
cause the test lamp to blink momentarily. Close to an activated
magnetic coil, however, the test lamp will give a fixed light.
Function Check
• Unscrew the test magnet (on the instrument cap), and move it to the
probe, which should then light. If the test lamp does not light, change
the batteries.
• To change the batteries unscrew the entire cap at the back of the
instrument. The batteries are installed with the positive pole facing
the test lamp (instrument's probe).
Warning:
• When using the Magnet stick, ensure it does not come into direct
contact with hazardous live parts.
