Electric Strike System<br />

To test for current at strike levels:<br />

1. Put two or three loops through current transformer.<br />

2. Follow steps above to test.<br />

3. Display should show the following:<br />

• All lights should turn on.<br />

• Alarm and strobe should turn on.<br />

With two loops,<br />

• Current "A" should be 80-110%.<br />

• Strike indication might go on and off.<br />

With three loops,<br />

• Current should be 130-160%.<br />

• Strike indication should be continuous.<br />

Voltage Test<br />

1. Place voltage limiter on something insulated from ground and drilling unit (such as dry board or tire),<br />

but near frame of drilling unit.<br />

2. Clip one lead to frame.<br />

3. Clip other lead to one voltage limiter mount.<br />

4. Move simulator switch to "voltage" and press test button.<br />

5. Watch screen and lights above display on strike system.<br />

• All lights should turn on.<br />

• Alarm and strobe should turn on.<br />

• Voltage "V" should show 90-110%.<br />

It is normal for simulator voltage levels to drift below strike level. When this happens, light in triangle should<br />

go off and alarm and strobe should stop working. If the level drifts above strike level again, light, alarm, and<br />

strobe should be turned on again.<br />
