INTENDED USE

Analogue  fixed  measuring  instruments  are  intended  for  installation  in  switching  cabinets  or 

display panels. The installation occurs directly without external components; appropriate pre-

resistors are already integrated in the circuit. Only in integrated status they may be put into 

operation. The suitable regulations are to be observed. The fixed measuring instruments are 

available with different measurement ranges. The scale needle can be adjusted precisely 

with  the  front  screw.  The  fixed  measuring  instrument  may  only  be  used  in  voltage  ranges  

<75 V/DC. Observe the technical data for this! Assembly and installation may only be carried out 

by a specialist, who is familiar with the relevant regulations and the ensuing risks.
The device must not be used in damp interiors or outdoors in the open air.
For safety and approval purposes, you must not rebuild and/or modify this product. If you use 

the product for purposes other than those described above, the product may be damaged. 

In addition, improper use can cause hazards such as short circuiting, fire, electric shock etc. 

Read the instructions carefully and keep them. Make this product available to third parties only 

together with its operating instructions.

guarantee.
a) Persons / Product
•  The fixed measuring instrument must not be used for medical purposes.
•  Be especially cautious in dealing with voltage >35 V/DC. Already at this voltage you 

can get a life-threatening electric shock when touching electric lines.

•  The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
•  Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. These may become 

dangerous playing material for children.

•  Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high 

humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.

•  Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
•  If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and 

protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if 

the product:

 - is visibly damaged, 
 - is no longer working properly, 
 - has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or 
 - has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.

•  Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height 

can damage the product.

•  Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices which are 

connected to the product.

•  De-energise the electric system before installing the measuring instrument.
b) Miscellaneous
•  Consult an expert when in doubt about operation, safety or connection of the 

device.

•  Maintenance,  modifications  and  repairs  are  to  be  performed  exclusively  by  an
