NOTE
Do not use this instrument in any manner not specified by the manufacturer. The
protective features of this instrument may be impaired if it is used in a manner not
specified in the operation instructions.
This instrument is an INDOOR USE product.
This instrument complies with INSTALLATION CATEGORY II for mains input and
INSTALLATION CATEGORY I for measurement input terminals, and POLLUTION DEGREE 2
defined in IEC 61010-1.
If an instrument is marked CAT I (IEC Measurement Category I), or it is not marked with a
measurement category, its measurement terminals must not be connected to
line-voltage mains.
• DANGEROUS PROCEDURE WARNINGS
Warnings, such as example below, shall be complied. Procedures throughout in this
manual prevent you from potentially hazard. Their instructions contained in the
warnings must be followed.
WARNING
Hazardous voltage, instrument maximum output voltage may appear at the
measurement terminals (Force, Guard, and Sense) if Interlock terminal is closed. Open
the Interlock terminal when the measurement terminals are accessible. Voltage
applied to the terminals will be limited up to ±42 V.
Do not work the interlock function intentionally in order to bring the output voltage to
the safe level. While the high voltage indicator is lit, the dangerous voltage by the
output voltage or the residual charge appears on the measurement terminal.
