Amprobe PRM-6 Phase Sequence and Motor Rotation Tester

Amprobe PRM 6

The Amprobe PRM-6 Phase Sequence and Motor Rotation Tester is a specialized tool designed for professionals working with 3-phase electrical systems. It is essential for verifying motor rotation and phase sequencing, ensuring that motors operate correctly and efficiently.

Key Features

• Phase Sequence Indication: The PRM-6 clearly indicates the 3-phase wire sequence, helping users identify the correct wiring configuration to prevent reverse motor rotation, which can damage equipment.
• Motor Rotation Detection: This device can determine the synchronous or asynchronous direction of motor rotation. It features both contact and non-contact testing capabilities, allowing users to check the rotation of running motors without needing to connect test leads.
• Wireless Functionality: One of the PRM-6’s standout features is its ability to detect motor rotation direction wirelessly. This is particularly useful for fast-running motors where visual rotation confirmation may not be possible due to speed or obstructions.
• Error Displays: The tester includes error detection capabilities, displaying warnings for issues such as missing phases or connections to neutral or protective earth (PE).
• Voltage Testing Capability: The PRM-6 can handle 3-phase to phase voltages up to 700 V, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
• Durable Design: The tester’s rubber casing ensures durability in demanding environments. It can withstand drops from heights of up to 1 meter (3 feet).
• Backlit LCD Display: The device features a clear backlit LCD screen that displays easy-to-read symbols and voltage readings, enhancing usability in various lighting conditions.
• Safety Ratings: The Amprobe PRM-6 is rated for CAT IV 600 V, complying with international safety standards such as EN 61010 and EN 61557, ensuring safe operation in high-voltage environments.
