Kyoritsu KT170 Voltage Testers

Kyoritsu KT170Voltage Testers

The Kyoritsu KT170 is a compact, rugged voltage tester built for fast presence/nominal-level checks on AC and DC circuits up to 690 V. Its pocket-friendly body places a pair of probes, a pen light and a clear LED ladder within easy reach so a single user can quickly verify whether circuits are live without disconnecting wiring. The instruments self-diagnostic startup and auto-power-on behavior are aimed at reducing user error before measurements begin.

Measurement behavior emphasizes conservative, safety-minded detection: multiple discrete LED thresholds show nominal voltage bands (12 / 24 / 50 / 120 / 230 / 400 / 690 V) while audible warnings and a live indicator draw attention to hazardous conditions. The manual stresses correct probe handling, finger guards and the use of the CAT.III/IV caps so the device can be used confidently on distribution-level equipment in the field.

Designed for electricians and maintenance personnel, theKT170combines simplicity with useful on-board checks double-pole voltage readout, single-pole live confirmation, phase-rotation indication (on three-phase systems) and continuity detection all packaged as a low-weight tool intended for routine verification and safety checks prior to further work. The documentation repeatedly highlights safe usage, environmental limits and the instruments IP65 protection for reliable field service.

Features:

• Self-diagnostic auto-power-on.
• LED ladder for nominal voltages: 12/24/50/120/230/400/690 V.
• Double-pole (both probes) voltage indication (works without batteries for LEDs).
• Single-pole live-circuit detection (with buzzer and live LED).
• Phase-rotation indication (L/R LEDs) for three-phase checks.
• Continuity (Rx) indicator with buzzer.
• Built-in pen light for illuminating measurement points.
• Selectable probe tip diameters and removable CAT.III/IV caps.
