1. Basic safety instructions
6
Avoid electrical hazards:
Never make measurements with the unit and its external probes on or near live components
unless the unit is expressly approved for current and voltage mesurements.
Use only the supplied power supply unit when using the instrument under mains power.
Allow only authorised persons to replace damaged mains cables.
Protect the unit/measuring cells:
Never store the unit together with solvents (e.g. acetone).
The condensate trap should be emptied once the maximum line has been reached. Switch off the
pump to empty.
Measure correctly:
Prior to every measurement, check the complete measurement system (probe, condensate trap,
hoses and connections) for leaks in order to avoid incorrect measurements caused by the intake
of air.
Ensure that the gas output in the instrument is always free of obstacles so that the sample gas
can escape unhindered.
Preserve product safety/warranty entitlement:
Operate the instrument only within the parameters specified in the technical data.
Please handle the instrument with care.
Force should never be applied.
The temperature data for the probes only refer to the sensor measuring range. Never subject
handles or pipes to temperatures greater than 70°C unless they are expressly approved for higher
temperatures.
The instrument should only be opened for maintenance and repair work if expressly described in
the Instruction manual.
Only carry out the maintenance and repair work described in the Instruction manual. Please follow
instructions. For safety reasons, only original spare parts from Testo should be used.
Any other work should only be carried out by authorised trained personnel. Otherwise
responsibility for the perfect functioning of the instrument following repairs and for the validity of
approvals will be denied by Testo.
Ensure correct disposal:
The measuring cells contain low concentrations of alkaline solutions and acids. Please dispose of
carefully.
Dispose of defective rechargeable batteries and spent batteries responsibly.
You can return your instrument directly to us at the end of its service life. We will dispose of it
responsibly.
