As noted in the IEC 61326-1, the instrument can have varying configurations.
The instrument was tested in a typical configuration with shielded, grounded
probe and RS-232 cables. Emissions may, in non-typical applications, exceed
the levels required by the standard. It is not practical to test all configurations,
as the manufacturer has no control over the probes the user may connect to the
instrument.
11.4.1.1
Immunity Testing
The instrument was tested to the requirements for industrial locations.
This allows the instrument to be used in all types of locations from the labora-
tory to the factory floor. Criterion B was used for Radiated RF (IEC 61000-4-3)
and Conducted RF (IEC 61000-4-6). Therefore, the operation of the instrument
may be affected by excessive electromagnetic interference and the instrument
may not perform within the normal specification limits in such an environment.
Criterion C was used for Electrostatic Discharge
(ESD, IEC 61000-4-2) and Electric Fast Transit (EFT, Burst, IEC 61000-4-4).
If the instrument is subjected to EFT conditions at 2kV, the instrument may re-
quire the user to cycle the power to return to normal operation.
11.4.1.2
Emission Testing
The instrument fulfills the limit requirements for Class A equipment but does
not fulfill the limit requirements for Class B equipment. The instrument was
not designed to be used in domestic establishments.
11.4.2
Low Voltage Directive (Safety)
In order to comply with the European Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC),
Hart Scientific equipment has been designed to meet the IEC 1010-1 (EN
61010-1) and the IEC 1010-2-010 (EN 61010-2-010) standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can the 1620 operate on battery power?
A. No. The 1620 requires AC power to be fully functional. However, it does
utilize a 9V backup battery that runs the data collection in the event of a power
outage. When AC power is interrupted, the display will go blank and an audible
alarm will sound to alert you that the 1620 is running on backup power. The
1620 will continue to collect data on backup power for approximately 16 hours.
When AC power is restored, the display will come back on and show a message
stating the AC power was interrupted. See Section 6.2 Battery.
