Instrument with double or reinforced insulation.
AC DC Ground (Earth)
This instrument complies to WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC).
Please contact your local distributor at disposal.
Measurement Category
O
Circuits which are not directly connected to the mains power supply.
CAT II
Primary electrical circuits of equipment connected to an AC
electrical outlet by a power cord.
CAT III
Primary electrical circuits of the equipment connected directly
to the distribution panel, and feeders from the distribution
panel to outlets.
CAT IV
The circuit from the service drop to the service entrance, and
to the power meter and primary over current protection
device(distribution panel).
This instrument is designed for CAT IV 300V/ CAT III 600V / CAT II
1000V. Test leads M-7066A with the supplied caps are designed
for CAT IV600V/ CAT III 1000V and without the caps are for CAT II
1000V.
DANGER
●
Never make measurements under the circumstances exceeding the
designed measurement category and the rated voltage of the
instrument.
●
Do not attempt to make measurement in the presence of flammable
gasses. Otherwise, the use of the instrument may cause sparking,
which can lead to an explosion.
●
Never attempt to use the instrument if its surface or your hand is wet.
●
Do not exceed the maximum allowable input of any measuring
range.
●
Never open the Battery compartment cover during a measurement.
●
To avoid electrical shock by touching the equipment under test or its
surroundings, be sure to wear insulated protective gear.
●
Test leads to be used for voltage measurements shall be rated as
appropriate for Measurement Category III or IV according to IEC
61010-031 and shall have a voltage rating of 1000V or higher.
●
Barriers on the test leads provide protection to keep your fingers and
hands from touching an object under test. Keep your fingers and
hands behind the barriers during measurement.
WARNING
●
Never attempt to make measurement if any abnormal conditions,
such as broken case and exposed metal parts are found on the
instrument or test leads.
●
Verify proper operation on a known source before use or take action
as a result of the indication of the instrument.
●
Firmly attach the caps to the test leads when performing
measurements in CAT III or higher test environments. When
KEW1020R and the test leads are combined and used together,
whichever is lower category & voltage to earth either of them
belong to is applied.
●
Do not rotate the Function Switch if the instrument and the
equipment under test are connected.
●
Do not install substitute parts or make any modification to the
instrument. For repair or re-calibration, return the instrument to your
local KYORITSU distributor.
CAUTION
●
Use of this instrument is limited to domestic, commercial and light
industry applications. Strong electromagnetic interference or strong
magnetic fields, generated by large currents, may cause malfunction
of the instrument.
●
Firmly insert the test leads.
●
Do not pull or twist the test leads to prevent the risk of damage.
●
Power off the instrument after use. Remove the battery if the
instrument is to be stored and will not be in use for a long period.
●
Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight, high temperature
and humidity or dewfall.
●
Use a cloth dipped in water or neutral detergent for cleaning the
instrument. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
NOTE
●
The LCD shows some digits at the Voltage range even while the test
leads are open. And, it may show some digits instead of 0 even if the
test leads are shorted. However, these phenomena don’t affect
measurement results.
●
A resistance measurement takes time to settle the reading if there is
a high resistance or capacitance components.

3. ACV / DCV / ACmV / DCmV Measurement
DANGER
●
Before starting a measurement, always check and confirm
the Function switch is in the appropriate measurement
position.
●
Never make measurement on a circuit in which voltage over
1000V exists.
●
Keep your fingers and hands behind the barrier during
measurement.
3.1 ACV / DCV/ ACmV / DCmV measurement
(1) Set the Function switch to ACV, DCV, ACmV or DCmV position.
For frequency or DUTY measurement, set the switch to ACV
and press the SELECT key.
(2) Connect the test leads to the Voltage and COM terminals.
3.2 Clamp sensor (option) measurement
(1) Set the Function switch to ACmV or DCmV position and press the
SELECT key. LCD shows “SENSOR”.
(2) Connect the clamp sensor to the Voltage and COM terminals.
NOTE
●
If the connection is reversed, the “
－
“ mark will be displayed on the
LCD. (DCV measurement).
●
Press the REL key to adjust the reading on the DC clamp sensor to
“0”.
●
The sensor mode corresponds to direct reading with 10mV/A
output clamp sensor.
4. Resistance / Diode / Continuity / Capacitance
Measurement
WARNING
Never use the instrument on an energized circuit. Discharge the
capacitor before starting a capacitance measurement.
(1) Set the Function switch to the resistance, continuity or capacitance
position. For diode measurement, press the SELECT key.
(2) Connect the test leads to the Voltage and COM terminals.
NOTE
●
LCD shows ”OL” when the test leads are open.
(except for capacitance measurement)

5. Other Functions
●
REL Function
Press the REL key to enable this function and store the measured
value to display the differences between the stored value and the
values measured in further tests. The measurement range will be
fixed when the REL function is enabled, and the measuring range will
be between the initial value and the full scale value.
Press the REL Key again to release the stored value.
*To activate REL function, MAX/MIN function should be disabled.
●
Sleep Function
Automatically powers off the instrument in about 15 min after the last
switch operation.
To exit from the Sleep mode, rotate the Function switch or press any
key. To disable the Sleep function, press the HOLD/Backlight key
and power on the instrument.
Confirm that the LCD shows “P.OFF” about 1 sec.
●
Max / Min value display function
This function is to display the measured max and min values on the
LCD during a measurement. Press the MAX/MIN key 1 sec or longer
to start recoding of max and min values. Then the LCD shows the
latest max value. After that, the min and present values can be
toggled and checked by pressing the MAX/MIN key (less than 1
sec).
To disable this function, press the MAX/MIN key 1 sec or longer.
* To activate MAX/MIN function, REL function should be disabled.
●
Data hold function
Press the HOLD key (less than 1 sec). The LCD shows “H” mark and
the reading will be held (Data hold mode). The max/ min values are
not updated in MAX/MIN mode. Press the HOLD key
again (less than 1 sec) to release the display.
●
Backlight function
Press the Backlight key 1 sec or longer to turn
on the backlight. Press the Backlight key another 1 sec or longer to
turn it off. The light automatically turns off in 1 min.
●
Low battery indication
The LCD shows “ ” mark when the batteries fall below the
normal operating voltage.
●
How to store test leads
Attach the Wing-type holder to the back of the instrument to store the
test leads.
1. Attach the Wing-type holder to the back of the instrument.
2. Fit the barrier on the test lead into the groove between the
instrument and the Wing-type holder.
3. Then it will be easier to see the displayed readings during a
measurement.
●
Other convenient functions
6. Battery Replacement
WARNING
●
Replace the battery when the " " mark- low battery voltage
warning- appears on the LCD.
Otherwise, precise measurement cannot be made. If the battery
is completely exhausted, the LCD goes blank without showing
the " " mark.
●
Disconnect the test leads from the object under test and power
off the instrument before opening the Battery compartment
cover for battery replacement.
●
Do not try to replace the battery if the surface of the instrument
is wet.
CAUTION
●
Do not mix old and new batteries. Brand and type of the
batteries to be used should be harmonized.
●
Install a batteries in correct polarity as indicated in the
Battery Compartment.
(1) Set the Function Switch to "OFF" position.
(2) Untighten the screw on the back of the instrument.
(3) Remove the Battery compartment cover and replace the
batterie.
(4) Attach the cover to the instrument and then secure the cover
by tightening the screw.
