Sorting Out A Single Wire In A Bundle Of Cables And Trace Lines In Overhead Installations - Beha-Amprobe SF100 Handbuch

Sorting out a single wire in a bundle of cables and
trace lines in overhead installations
• Switch on the instrument via the switch on/off and sensitivity
potentiometer (5).
• Set selection switch between Fuse and Cable to "Cable" (4).
• Plug the transmitter into socket of respective current circuit.
• Set sensitivity via sensitivity potentiometer (5) to the highest
sensitivity.
• Now approach the plugged-in transmitter with the sensor (1) and
try to receive a signal. A signal received is indicated by the symbol
"H" (6) on the display as well as the blinking of the LED (2). At the
same time an acoustic signal is audible depending on the intensi-
ty of the signal.
• Now try to locate the signal at the bundle of cables or overhead
installation. If a signal is received, reduce the sensitivity level via
the potentiometer (5) until the minimum reception of the signal is
achieved. If required, reset the sensitivity level via the potentiome-
ter (5), in order to retrieve the signal (see drawing below).
Depending on local conditions, the tracing distance amounts to approx.
0...40 cm.
