Risk of electrical shock or fire
Voltages higher than 30
V
RMS or 42
V
peak or 60
V
DC are regarded as
hazardous contact voltages. When working with hazardous contact vol-
tages, use appropriate protective measures to preclude direct contact with
the measurement setup:
●
Use only insulated voltage probes, test leads and adapters.
●
Do not touch voltages higher than 30
V
RMS or 42
V
peak or 60
V
DC.
Risk of injury and instrument damage
The instrument is not rated for any measurement category.
Make sure that the input voltage on
channel inputs
does not exceed
200
V
peak, 150
V
RMS at 1
M
Ω
input impedance and 5
V
RMS at 50
Ω
input impedance.
Transient overvoltages must not exceed 200
V
peak.
When performing measurements in circuits with transient overvoltages of
category II, III or IV circuits, make sure that no such overvoltages reach the
R&S
RTE input. Therefore, use only probes that comply with DIN EN
61010-031. When performing measurements in category II, III or IV circuits,
it is mandatory to insert a probe that appropriately reduces the voltage so
that no transient overvoltages higher than 200
V
peak are applied to the
instrument. For detailed information, refer to the documentation and safety
information of the probe manufacturer.
For the
external trigger input
, the maximum input voltage is 30
V
RMS at
1
M
Ω
input impedance and 5
V
RMS at 50
Ω
input impedance. For further
specifications, refer to the data sheet.
Explanation: According to section AA.2.4 of EN 61010-2-030, measuring
circuits without any measurement category are intended for measurements
on circuits which are not connected to the mains system.
