Greenlee VWP-20H
V-Watch Pro Personal Voltage Detector with Mute Button and Lanyard Case
The Greenlee VWP-20H (52074223) is a V-Watch Pro Personal Voltage Detector with a Mute Button and Lanyard Case. It detects strong electric fields surrounding high voltage conductors. It emits loud beeps and flashing lights that increase in frequency when an electric field is detected. The Mute button temporarily silences it. The self-test button verifies battery power and proper functioning.
- Detects voltage above 4kVAC line-to-line
- Lightweight, protective housing
- Increases safety for line crews, storm restoration workers and first responders
- Alerts user to proximity of high voltage or energized electrical equipment
- Produces loud alarm and illuminates bright LED lights when electrical fields are detected
- Equipped with Mute button to temporarily silence beeper during prolonged work around high voltage conductors
- Frequency of alarm increases as user gets closer to the electrical hazard
- Detects voltage above 4kVAC line-to-line
- Typical initial warning distance is about 7 ft. (2.13 m) from conductor
- Warning distance increases with higher voltages
- Lightweight, rugged protective housing ideal for field use
- Replaceable 9V battery with low battery indicator
- Supplied with carrying case with built-in lanyard
- Operating Voltage Range: Only detects AC voltage; do not use below 2400VAC
- Operating Frequency: 50/60Hz
The Greenlee VWP-20H (52074223) V-Watch Pro Personal Voltage Detector with Mute Button and Lanyard Case detects the strong electric fields surrounding high voltage conductors and power distribution equipment. It is a small pocket size device worn on the outside of the clothing or other protective gear by users operating near power lines or high voltage equipment. It provides an extra level of safety for personnel trained in the use and application while working on or near high voltage systems. The detector is supplied with a tough carrying case made of black shielded material.
The V-Watch Pro Voltage Detector includes a Mute button that temporarily silences the beeper. The Mute feature may be used when it is necessary to work for a prolonged period in or around high voltage electricity while wearing the detector. After 3 to 5 minutes, the Mute function is cancelled and the detector returns to normal alarm operation.
The V-Watch Pro Personal Voltage Detector works by sensing the presence of the electric field surrounding anything that potentially conducts high voltage electricity and sounds an alarm. It measures the strength of the electric field; a higher voltage or stronger field will cause the detector to alarm from a greater distance.
The V-Watch Pro emits a series of loud beeps and flashing lights when an electric field is first detected. The beeps and flashing lights increase in frequency as the user approaches the source of the high voltage electric field. A steady tone indicates very close proximity to high voltage and the need for extreme caution. This variable beeping rate helps the user to determine if they are approaching the high voltage source or moving away from it to safety.
The detector has a self-test button to verify battery power and proper functioning of the device. It will also sound an alarm to warn the user of a low battery. Whenever the detector is being used, it is always on, checking for the presence of high voltage electric fields. A standard 9-volt alkaline battery powers the unit for about one year.
