2. Información de seguridade

WARNING: Always exercise extreme caution when working with electricity. This device is an indicator and should not be solely relied upon for verifying the absence of voltage in critical safety situations. Always follow local electrical safety codes and use appropriate personal protective equipment.

  • Non empregues o dispositivo se parece estar danado ou non funciona correctamente.
  • Asegúrese de que o compartimento da batería estea ben pechado antes de usalo.
  • Non intente medir o voltages exceeding the specified range (1000V AC).
  • Manteña o dispositivo lonxe da auga e da humidade.
  • The laser light should not be pointed directly at eyes or reflective surfaces.

This image highlights the main functionalities: automatic shutdown for energy saving, 9 sensitivity levels for broad application (12-1000V AC), a low battery indicator, a red laser light for pointing, and combined buzzer and red light warnings for clear voltage detección.

4. Configuración

4.1 Instalación da batería

The HANMATEK AC2 requires 2 AAA batteries (included). Ensure correct polarity when inserting.

  1. Unscrew the battery cover at the top of the device.
  2. Insert two AAA batteries according to the polarity markings (+/-) inside the compartment.
  3. Replace the battery cover and screw it tightly to secure.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento

5.1 Encendido/apagado

Preme o Botón de encendido (green circle) to turn the device on. Press and hold the Power Button to turn it off.

5.2 voltagDetección de e (modo NCV)

The device automatically enters NCV (Non-Contact Voltage) detection mode upon power-on.

  1. Hold the device with the NCV probe tip near the conductor, socket, or wire you wish to test.
  2. Se AC voltage is detected, the Voltage Signal Indicator will light up (red), and an audible buzzer will sound. The LCD display will show the detected signal strength (H for High, L for Low).
  3. The intensity of the light and sound indicates the strength of the detected voltage.

5.3 Axuste da sensibilidade

The HANMATEK AC2 offers 9 levels of sensitivity, allowing detection from 12V AC to 1000V AC.

  1. Preme o Sensitivity Up Key (up arrow) to increase sensitivity.
  2. Preme o Sensitivity Down Key (down arrow) to decrease sensitivity.
  3. The LCD will display the current sensitivity level (1-9). Higher numbers indicate higher sensitivity, allowing detection of weaker signals or through thicker insulation.

5.4 Live/Neutral Wire Differentiation

When testing a live socket or wire, the device can help differentiate between live and neutral lines:

  1. Set the sensitivity to a lower level (e.g., 1 or 2) for more precise detection.
  2. Place the NCV probe near each terminal or wire.
  3. The live wire will typically trigger a stronger and more consistent indication (faster flashing light, louder buzzer) compared to the neutral wire.

Función de lanterna LED 5.5

Preme o Botón da lanterna (light bulb icon) to turn the integrated LED flashlight on or off. This is useful for working in dimly lit areas.

5.6 Laser Pointer Function

Preme o Interruptor láser (star icon) to activate the red laser pointer. Press it again to turn it off. This feature can be used for pointing or indicating specific areas.

5.7 Apagado automático

To conserve battery life, the device will automatically shut down after approximately 3 minutes of inactivity or no signal detection.

5.8 Indicación de batería baixa

Se a batería voltage drops below approximately 2.6V, the operating display will flash three times, and the buzzer will sound before the device automatically shuts down. Replace the batteries promptly when this occurs.

6. Mantemento

6.1 Substitución da batería

When the low battery indicator appears or the device fails to power on, replace the batteries as described in Section 4.1. Always use fresh AAA batteries.

6.2 Limpeza

Limpe o dispositivo cun pano seco e suave. Non empregue produtos de limpeza abrasivos nin disolventes. Asegúrese de que non entre humidade no dispositivo.

6.3 Almacenamento

If the device will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and damage. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

7 Solución de problemas

ProblemaCausa posibleSolución
O dispositivo non se acende.Baterías gastadas ou instaladas incorrectamente.Substitúa as pilas, asegurándose de que a polaridade sexa correcta.
Non voltage detected, but power is present.Low sensitivity setting; device too far from source; very weak signal.Increase sensitivity using the Up Key; move closer to the conductor.
False positive detection (detects voltage where none exists).High sensitivity setting; interference from nearby electrical fields.Decrease sensitivity using the Down Key; ensure no other strong electrical sources are nearby.
Low battery indicator flashes.As baterías están baixas.Substitúa as pilas inmediatamente.
