Introduction
The Amprobe
®
digital multimeter HD160C is a heavy-duty 4-digit, autoranging, AC-coupled
True rms measuring instrument that measures voltage, current, resistance, continuity, as
well as capacitance, frequency and temperature. It also offers Range Lock, Data Hold,
Relative Measurement, Auto Min Max Measurement, a bright backlight, and Auto Power
Off to save battery life. The instrument is completely o-ring sealed to pass strict IP-67
ratings for moisture and dust proof. The HD160C also has internal components shock -
mounted for drop proof capability. The HD160C meets the highest safety rating of CAT IV
1000 V (1500V DC max).
Warnings and Precautions
This instrument is EN61010-1 certified for Cat IV, 1000 V ac/1500 V dc and lower
installations. Based on EN61010-1 transient requirements, this product should
only be used in installations where transients do not exceed 12,000 volts (a 1.2
µ
S/50
µ
S pulse).
•
All inputs are protected against overload conditions up to the limits of each
function's stated input protection (see specifications). Never exceed these
limits or the ratings marked on the instrument itself.
•
Exercise extreme caution when: measuring voltage >20 V, current >10 mA, ac
power line with inductive loads, ac power line during electrical storms. High
voltages can be lethal and high voltage transients may occur at any time.
•
Operator injury or damage to the multimeter may occur during current
measurements if the fuse blows in a circuit with open circuit voltage 1000 V
ac/1500 V dc.
