Product Description
This single-pole, capacitive voltage detector Comet BL-I from HORSTMANN is designed for indoor use in dry conditions and is used to detect the presence of operating voltage. The device has an integrated self-test that checks the function of the circuit, including the contact electrode, before each use. The voltage indication is provided either optically (a red LED and a green LED) or both optically and acoustically (a red LED, a green LED, and a buzzer).Function and Operation
- Single-pole, capacitive voltage detector designed for indoor use.
- Integrated self-test that checks the circuit and contact electrode before each measurement.
- Indication: either optical (red/green LED) or optical + acoustic (red/green LED + buzzer).
Typical Applications
The device is used to determine whether voltage is present ("voltage present" / "voltage not present") and for functional checks before work. According to the manufacturer's text, the Comet series is suitable for use in maintenance, installation, and troubleshooting where a clear indication of operating voltage is required.Documentation
