1.2 Operating conditions
S
Protect the ITC-K1000 connector against direct con­
tact with water, moisture and weather conditions such
as rain and snow.
S
Also protect the thermocouple cable and connector
against direct sunlight.
S
Comply with the ambient conditions stated in the
specifications, such as the allowable temperature,
relative humidity, altitude and degree of pollution.
S
Operate the ITC-K1000 only within the measurement
categories stated in the specifications.
S
If the ITC-K1000 is operated outside the measure­
ment category ratings specified in EN 61010–1:2010
(not connected to the supply network, formerly
CAT I), an analysis of the working voltage, loop
impedance, occasional overvoltage and the transient
overvoltages of the (potential) circuit to be contacted
is required. The thermocouple can only be used after
the analysis data has been compared with the maxi­
mum allowable values specified in the ITC-K1000
data sheet.
S
The ITC-K1000 must not be modified in terms of
design or safety engineering except with our express
agreement.
S
Do not operate the ITC-K1000 if it is visibly or audibly
damaged.
S
In accordance with national and local environmental
protection and material recovery and recycling regula­
tions, old thermocouples that can no longer be used
must be disposed of separately and not with normal
household garbage.
