1.1 SAFETY
CAUTION:
Force Testers are very safe to use providing the instructions
presented in this manual are followed precisely. We would like to draw your
attention to both the Electrical Safety (Section 1.2) and Operational
Precautions (Section 1.3). Please refer to both sections for details on safe
operation of this equipment before operating your force tester.
A transparent splinter shield (part number is 01/3909) is available as an option to enclose
the test sample (see section 14). A shield should be fitted if there is any danger of samples
shattering during the test. The shield has an electronic interlock such that the test cannot be
started until the hinged shield is closed. While not mandatory for many applications and
countries, CHATILLON strongly recommends that users consider fitting this optional item.
The Force Tester is required to be secured to the workbench (see section 14).
1.2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1.
The CS Force Tester has been designed to meet the requirements of BS EN 61010-
1:2010 safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control and
laboratory use.
2.
The User Manual contains some information and warnings, which have to be
followed by the user to ensure safe operation and to keep the machine in safe
condition.
3.
The machine has been designed for indoor use. It may occasionally be subjected to
temperatures between -10ºC and +35ºC (14ºF and 95ºF) without degradation of its
safety.
4.
Before switching on the machine make sure that it is set to the voltage of the mains
electricity supply.
5.
This machine complies with electrical safety grade Class 1, which means that it is
“earthed apparatus” and requires the mains plug to contain a protective earth terminal.
The mains plug must only be inserted in a socket outlet provided with a protective
earth contact. The protective action must not be negated by the use of an extension
cord without a protective conductor.
6.
Make sure that only fuses with the required rated current and of the specified type are
used for replacement. The use of makeshift fuses and the short-circuiting of fuse
holders is prohibited.
7.
There are no user serviceable parts within the machine.
8.
The machine must be disconnected from all power sources before it is opened for
any adjustments, replacement, maintenance or repair.
9.
Capacitors inside the machine may still be charged even if the machine has been
disconnected from all power sources.
10. Any adjustment, maintenance or repair of the opened machine when connected to the
mains supply voltage should be avoided as far as possible but if inevitable, must only
be carried out by a skilled person who is aware of the hazard involved.
11. Only use safety approved power cords that come with the CS series test machines.
