Lifting and carrying the product
Some products are heavy. A safety label on the casing indicates if a product
weighs more than 18
kg. To safely move the product, you can use lifting or trans-
porting equipment such as lift trucks, cranes, forklifts and hand trucks. Secure the
product, but not by its handles. Excessive force can break the handles.
Choosing the operating site
Only use the product indoors. The product casing is not waterproof and water that
enters can electrically connect the casing with live parts. This can lead to electric
shock, serious personal injury or death if you touch the casing.
Unless otherwise specified, you can operate the product up to an altitude of
2000
m above sea level. The product is suitable for pollution degree
2 environ-
ments where nonconductive contamination can occur. For more information on
environmental conditions such as ambient temperature and humidity, see the
data sheet.
Setting up the instrument
Always place the instrument on a stable, flat and level surface with the bottom of
the instrument facing down.
To save space, you can mount several instruments in a rack. If you stack instru-
ments, keep in mind that a stack of instruments can tilt over and cause injury.
If the instrument has foldable feet, always fold the feet completely in or out to
ensure stability. The feet can collapse if they are not folded out completely or if
the instrument is moved without lifting it. The foldable feet are designed to carry
the weight of the instrument, but not an extra load.
Connecting to power
The product is an overvoltage category II product and has to be connected to a
fixed installation used to supply energy-consuming equipment such as household
appliances and similar loads. Be aware that electrically powered products have
risks, such as electric shock, fire, personal injury or even death.
