Operation
This section describes how to set up and make measurements with your tester. We
recommend that you read the entire section carefully so that you can use all of the features of
your tester.
Setting up your Tester
Your tester is shipped in a special protective container that should prevent damage to the
instrument during shipping. Check the shipping order against the contents of the container and
report any damage or short shipment to Compliance West USA. The container should include the
following:
-
The HT-3000P-1A-AC Dielectric Withstand Tester
- Test leads (with Alligator Clips ends, one Green and one Red)
- Calibration Certificate
- This Instruction Manual
- Keys to open the rear door
If reshipment of the instrument is necessary, please use the original shipping container. If
the original shipping container is not available, be sure that adequate protection is provided to
prevent damage during shipment. We recommend that the instrument be surrounded by at least
three inches of shock-absorbing material on all sides of the container.
AC Line Voltage Requirements
AC line voltage requirements for your Tester are noted on the rear panel of the
instrument. Do not connect the instrument to a different voltage source.
Fuse Replacement
There are two user-replaceable fuses (F1) located on the front panel of the instrument
and the other one is inside the equipment. The F1 fuse rating is noted on the rear panel. Do not
attempt to replace it with a fuse of any other rating.
Use the following procedure to replace the fuse F1:
1. Turn the power switch to the O or Off position.
2. Unplug the instrument from the source of supply.
3. Twist the cover of the fuse holder and remove it.
4. Replace the fuse with a new one of the correct rating.
5. Replace the fuse holder cover.
Front Panel Features
Before using your tester, take a few minutes to become familiar with the use of its
controls, indicators, and connectors. The front panel features of the HT-3000P-1A-AC are shown
in Figure 2 and described in Table 2.
