Phase sequence
L1 · L2 · L3On insulated conductors, without electrical contact

Professional non-contact detection
R18 detects three-phase sequence without electrical contact, displays electric-field strength and takes on demanding work with IP67 protection.
Functions and capability
R18’s essential information, made clear at a glance.
On insulated conductors, without electrical contact
Non-contact electric-field detection
The level is visible, not merely signalled
Resistance to dust and water
Light directly on the working area
Professional pen format with clip
One more piece of information changes everything
The display shows both phase sequence and detected electric-field strength. You no longer have to interpret a simple audible alert on its own.
Designed for real work
ELECTRIC-FIELD STRENGTH
Neutral and earth conductors may carry induced or coupled fields that trigger a conventional detector. R18 does more than beep: its display shows detected field strength, helping distinguish a weak or induced signal from the clear presence of a live phase.

NON-CONTACT PHASE SEQUENCE
Scan the three conductors in sequence through their insulation. R18 acquires L1, L2 and L3 and shows phase rotation on the display, without connecting probes or accessing live parts.

A conventional voltage detector often does no more than beep. R18 also displays electric-field strength — vital information when an induced field on neutral or earth might otherwise appear to be live voltage.

The IP67 construction protects R18 against dust and water ingress. Its compact, robust body is designed for cabinets, panels, jobsites and environments where an ordinary detector is too delicate.

The integrated LED torch illuminates the conductor and working area. The display and illuminated tip remain clearly visible inside deep panels and poorly lit environments.
