Provides additional information to complement the present topic.
Damage to the instrument or personal injury or even loss of life may
result from electrical shock or other factors. To avoid this, follow the
precautions below.
WARNING
●
Use in gases
Do not operate this instrument in areas where inflammable or explosive gases
or vapor exists. It is extremely hazardous to use the instrument under such
environments.
●
Defects in protective features
Do not operate this instrument if any defect seems to exist in such protec-
tive features as fuses. Before operating the instrument, make sure the pro-
tective features are free from any defect.
●
External connection
When connecting the instrument to the object under test or an external con-
trol circuit, or if you need to touch any external circuit, cut off the power to
the circuit and make sure no voltage is being supplied.
●
Fuses
In order to prevent a possible fire, use a fuse with ratings (current, voltage,
and type) specified for the instrument. Do not short-circuit the fuse holder.
●
Correctly use the lead cables for measurement (P/N: RD031) and source (P/
N: 98020) without mistaking one for the other. For high-voltage measure-
ment, always use the lead cable for measurement.
●
Opening of the case
No person other than our service personnel is allowed to open the case since
the instrument contains high-voltage parts.
For the safe use of the optional AC adapter, follow the precautions
given below.
WARNING
●
Power supply
Before turning on the instrument, always make sure the voltage being sup-
plied matches the rated supply voltage of the instrument.
