RMO600 Safety Instructions, Designated Use
Operator Qualifications
• Testing with RMO600 should only be carried out by authorized and qualified
personnel.
• Personnel receiving training, instruction, direction or education on the RMO600
should remain under the constant supervision of an experienced operator while
working with the test set and the test object.
Safe Operation Procedures
• Hazardous voltages of up to 400V can occur inside RMO600. Therefore is not
permitted to open RMO600.
• Do not insert objects (e.g., screwdrivers, etc.) into the ventilation slots.
• Before putting RMO600 into operation, check the test set for visible damages.
• Do not operate RMO600 under wet or moist conditions (condensation).
• Do not operate RMO600 when explosive gas or vapors are present.
• The serial interface of RMO600 should only have external devices connected that
meet the requirements for SELV equipment according to EN 60950 or IEC 60950.
• When setting up RMO600, make sure that the air slots of the test set remain
unobstructed.
• If RMO600 is opened by the customer, all guarantees are invalidated.
• If RMO600 seems to be functioning improperly, please contact the IBEKO POWER
AB (refer to section ”Manufacturer Contact Information”).
• Do not use RMO600 without the extra protective ground (PE) cable set connected.
Power Supply
• Supply RMO600 only from a power outlet that is equipped with protective ground .
• Instead of supplying RMO600 from phase – neutral (L1-N, A-N), it may also be
supplied from phase – phase (e.g., L1-L2; A-B). However, the voltage must not
exceed 240 V AC, please refer to section Technical Data.
3 Designated Use
The Micro OhmMeter RMO600 is designed for measuring contact resistances of
non-inductive test objects used in the electric power industry or similar branches.
It is employed for resistance measurement during manufacturing, commissioning
and testing of:
ƒ power circuit breakers,
ƒ interrupters,
ƒ bar installation,
ƒ cable splices,
ƒ welded joints,
ƒ grounding.
Any other use of the RMO600 than the ones mentioned above is to be considered
improper and will not only invalidate all customer warranty claims but also exempt
the manufacturer from its liability for repair or exchange.
