Warning!

– Carefully read the manual before the installation or use.
– This equipment is to be installed by qualified personnel, complying to current

standards, to avoid damages or safety hazards.

– Before any maintenance operation on the device, remove all the voltages from

measuring and supply inputs and short-circuit the CT input terminals.

– Products illustrated herein are subject to alteration and changes without prior notice.
– Technical data and descriptions in the documentation are accurate, to the best of our

knowledge, but no liabilities for errors, omissions or contingencies arising there from
are accepted.

– A circuit breaker must be included in the electrical installation of the building. It must

be installed close by the equipment and within easy reach of the operator. It must be
marked as the disconnecting device of the equipment: IEC /EN 61010-1 § 6.11.2.1.

– Clean the instrument with a soft dry cloth; do not use abrasives, liquid detergents or

solvents.
