This Greenlee 5124 Phase Sequence and Motor Rotation Meter comes with a catalog sheet and an operator's manual. What's in the box? You'll get one phase sequence and motor rotation meter, three banana leads, three alligator clips, a 9V battery, and a soft carrying case. This meter is a must - have for ensuring proper installation of three - phase power sources and industrial equipment conductors. It can detect the live phase and sequence orientation, giving you peace of mind during setup. The motor rotation function helps you quickly identify the rotational direction of motors, compressors, and generators. And with its non - contact motor rotation feature, you can determine the rotation of running single - phase and three - phase motors without using leads. Specifications include a CAT III 600V voltage rating, a frequency rating from 15Hz to 400Hz, and a phase range of 90V AC - 600V AC. It has an LED bulb display and compact dimensions of 123mm x 71mm x 29mm. It also complies with CE and CETLUS standards and can operate in temperatures from 0 to 40 °C.
Using this Greenlee 5124 Phase Sequence and Motor Rotation Meter is quite straightforward. First, make sure the 9V battery is properly installed. When you want to check the phase sequence and orientation of three - phase power sources or industrial equipment conductors, connect the banana leads and alligator clips as needed. Then, turn on the meter and it will quickly show you the results. For the motor rotation function, just point the meter at the motor you want to test, and it will tell you the rotational direction. The non - contact feature is even easier. Just bring the meter close to the running single - phase or three - phase motor, and it will determine the rotation without any leads. Now, for some important notes. Always make sure the voltage and frequency of the power source are within the specified range of the meter (CAT III 600V, 15Hz - 400Hz). Don't use it in temperatures outside the 0 - 40 °C range. When you're done using it, put it back in the soft carrying case to protect it. And every once in a while, check the battery level. If the battery is low, replace it with a new 9V battery to keep the meter working well.
