●
Use the Correct Power Supply
Ensure that the source voltage match-
es the voltage of the power supply be-
fore turning ON the power. In the case
of portable type and the GX60 (power
inlet type), ensure that it is within the
maximum rated voltage range of the
provided power cord before connect-
ing the power cord.
● Use the Correct Power Cord and Plug
(Portable Type, GX60 (power inlet
type))
To prevent electric shock or fire, be
sure to use the power cord supplied
by Yokogawa. The main power plug
must be plugged into an outlet with a
protective earth terminal. Do not dis-
able this protection by using an ex-
tension cord without protective earth
grounding.
The power cord is designed for use
with this instrument. Do not use the
power cord with other instruments.
● Connect the Protective Grounding
Terminal
Make sure to connect the protective
grounding to prevent electric shock
before turning ON the power.
The power cord that comes with the
portable type and the GX60 (power
inlet type) are three prong type power
cord. Connect the power cord to a
properly grounded three-prong outlet.
● Do Not Impair the Protective Ground
