1) Safety Features and Precautions
You have selected an instrument which provides you with a high level of
safety.
The Insu 10 Analog-Digital Insulation Tester is manufactured in
compliance with safety regulations IEC 61010-1/EN 61010-1/VDE 0413
part 1. When used for its intended purpose. safety of the operator, as well
as that of the instrument, is assured. In case of incorrect use or careless
handling, the safety of both user and instrument is not assured.
To maintain the safe and proper condition of the instr ment and to ensure
its safe operation, it is absolutely necessary to carefully and completely
read these operating instructions before using the instrument. These
instructions must be followed in all respects.
Observe the following safety precautions :
*
The instrument must be operated only by persons who
understand the danger of shock hazards and know how to
apply safety precautions. Shock hazards exist anywhere,
where voltages of more than 30 V may occur.
*
Do not work alone in shock hazardous environment while carrying
out measurement.
*
The maximum allowable voltage between any terminal sockets
and earth is equal to 600 V for voltage and 1000V for Insulation
resistance measurement.
*
Verify that the test leads are in good condition, e.g. no cracked
insulation, no open circuits in the leads or connectors.
*
Measurements under moist ambient conditions are not permitted.
*
Do not exceed the permissible overload limits of the measuring
ranges. Limit values can be found in the table in “12. Specification”.
Safety Precautions for Insulation Resistance
Measurement
*
The circuit under test
must
be switched o
ff
, de-energized,
isolated
before
Insulation or Continuity tests are made.
*
The
TEST
button
must not
be pressed while connecting the
test leads or while changing ranges.
*
The Voltage warning
does not function
while in STOP WATCH
mode or in MENU structure.
*
During an Insulation test, connections
must not
be touched.
*
After insulation tests, capacitive circuits
must
be allowed
to discharge
before
disconnecting test leads.
*
Test leads and crocodile clips
must be
in good condition,
clean and with no broken or cracked insulation.

Battery Test
Battery symbol “ ” appears on the LCD in either of below conditions :
1. Battery voltage is <5.4V. Battery replacement is necessary.
2. For a specific range depending on application
In either of the above condition, when the battery symbol is displayed, no
measurement can be done, and the battery symbol flashes.
Note :
Battery cells should not be left in the instrument which may remain
unused for extended period of time.
Auto turn OFF
Instrument turns o

automatically, if any of the keys or the function
selector switch have not been activated for about 10 minutes in
insulation resistance range and 5 minutes in other ranges.
