Incoming

 

Inspection

 

After you receive the instrument, carry out checks during unpacking according to the 
following procedure. 

 

 

WARNING 
 

If the external face of the instrument (such as the cover, front/rear panel, LCD screen, 
power switch, and port connectors) appears to have been damaged during transport, do 
not turn on the power switch. Otherwise, you may get an electrical shock. 

 

Make sure that the packing box or shock-absorbing material used to package the 
instrument has not been damaged. 
Referring to <Packing List> in the packing box, check that all packaged items supplied 
with the meter have been provided as per the specified optioned. 

 

 

NOTE 
 

If an abnormality is detected, contact the company and transport the meter to your 
nearest Applent Instruments sales or service office. For inspection by the transport 
company, save the packing box, shock-absorbing material, and packaged items as you 
received them.

Setting

 

up

 

Fuse

 

~Line: 110VAC/220VAC, 50Hz/60Hz 
Fuse: 250V 1A Slow Blow 

 

Please use the following fuse type. 
UL/CSA type, Slow-Blow, 5

×

20-mm miniature fuse, 1A, 250 V   

 

 

When you need a fuse, contact your nearest Applent Instruments sales or service office. 
To verify and replace the fuse, remove the power cable and pull out the fuse holder. 

1.3

 

Environmental

 

Requirements

 

Set up the AT516x where the following environmental requirements are satisfied. 
 
Operating Environments 
Ensure that the operating environment meets the following requirements. 
Temperature: 0

C to 55

C 

Temperature range at calibration: 23

C

±

5

C (<1

C deviation from the temperature 

when performing calibration)
