1
Note: Accuracy quoted is the accuracy of detectors during calibration; gas-in-oil measurement
accuracy may also be affected by sampling and/or oil type.
*
2
Note: The Power Supply Unit (PSU) is type tested to −40 °C cold start.
*
3
Note: Based on testing carried out using VOLTESSO 35 mineral oil over a ¼ in. pipe run of 10 metres or
less from oil supply or return valve to product connection point, and on transformer oil supply valve
volumes of 200ml or less.
*
4
Note: A suitably rated fuse must be added to the circuitry in accordance with local regulations.
*
5
Note: Maximum DC breaking capacity for a resistive load.
*
6
Note: Use only the approved and recommended fuse to ensure continued fire protection and
compliance.
