Safety Instructions 

This  measuring  instrument  conforms  to  the  2004/108/EG) 
(EN61010)  standard  and  fulfils  the  requirements  of  applicable 
European  and  national  directives.  Appropriate  declarations  and 
documentation  are  located  with  the  manufacturer.  The  user  must 
read  these  operating  instructions  in  order  to  guarantee  problem-
free  instrument  operation  and  operational  safety.  The  measuring 
instrument  may  only  be  operated  under  the  specified  climatic 
conditions.  These  conditions  can  be  found  in  Section  3.1 

"

Specifications"

. In addition, this measuring instrument may only be 

operated under the conditions and for the purpose it was designed 
for.  The  operational  safety  and  functionality  are  no  longer 
guaranteed if the instrument is modified or converted. Gann Mess- 
u.  Regeltechnik  GmbH  assumes  no  liability  for  any  ensuing 
damage. All risks are assumed solely by the user. 

 

 

The  instrument  may  not  be  stored  or  operated  in 
aggressive  atmospheres  or  atmospheres  containing 
solvents! 
 

 

 

Static  electricity

  -  At  low  humidities  static  electricity 

charges  with  high  voltages  may  build  up,  favoured  by 
external influences (friction during material transport, high 
environmental isolation value), which may not only lead to 
strong  fluctuations  in  the  measured  data  or  negative 
values,  but  also  to  the  destruction  of  electrical 
components  in  the  instrument.  Even  the  instrument 
operator may - inadvertently - contribute to the build up of 
a  static  charge  by  the  clothing  worn.  A  considerable 
improvement  can  be  achieved  by  the  operator  and  the 
measuring  instrument  being  absolutely  still  during 
measuring, as well as by earthing (contact with conducting 
metal, water or heating pipes, etc.).
