Special notes on use
4.1 Special notes on use
•
If the device is brought into the work-room from a cold environment
there is a risk that condensation might form on the electronics. In
measuring operations involving thermocouples pronounced changes in
temperature may cause substantial measuring errors. You are ad-
vised therefore to wait until the device has adjusted to the ambient
temperature before starting to use it.
•
Before using the mains adapter make sure that the mains voltage is
suitable.
•
Be sure to observe the maximum load capacity of the sensor power
supply.
•
Sensors with their own integrated power supply are not electrically iso-
lated from one another
4.2 Handling batteries / rechargeable batteries correctly
When inserting batteries / rechargeable batteries ensure that
these are correctly polarized.
If the device will probably not be needed for a relatively long pe-
riod of time or if the batteries are empty, remove the batteries;
this will prevent battery acid leaking onto the device and damag-
ing it.
Rechargeable batteries should be recharged as and when nec-
essary.
You should never attempt to recharge an ordinary (non-
rechargeable) battery; it may explode !
Batteries / rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited
or thrown onto the fire.
Batteries / rechargeable batteries are special waste and must
not be discarded together with normal domestic waste.
