requirements with respect to recycling and reuse

This product complies with the Low Voltage & Electromagnetic Compatibility

European directives (73/23/CEE & 89/336/CEE)

In the European Union, this product is subject to a separate collection

system for recycling electrical and electronic components in accordance with

Denition of Measurement Categories (CAT)

CAT IV corresponds to measurements performed at the primary electrical supply

(< 1000 V).

Example: primary overcurrent protection devices, ripple control units, and meters.

CAT III corresponds to measurements performed in the building installation at the

distribution level.

Example: hardwired equipment in xed installation and circuit breakers.

CAT II corresponds to measurements performed on circuits directly connected to

the electrical distribution system.

Example: measurements on household appliances and portable tools.

1.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

This instrument is compliant with safety standard IEC 61010-2-030, and the leads

are compliant with IEC 61010-031, for voltages up to 600 V in CAT IV or 1000V

in CAT III.

■The safety of any system in which this instrument is incorporated is the

responsibility of the integrator of the system.

■This instrument can be used on CAT IV installations, for voltages not

exceeding 600 VRMS with respect to ground or 700 VRMS maximum between

terminals.

■Do not use the instrument on networks whose voltage or category exceeds

■Observe all environmental conditions of use (see § 3).

■Except for voltage measurements, take no measurements on electrically “live”

systems.

■Do not use the instrument if it appears damaged, incomplete, or poorly closed.

■Before each use, check the condition of the insulation on the leads, housing,

and accessories. Any part on which the insulation is deteriorated (even

partially) must be set aside for repair or scrapping.

■Using the instrument without its battery compartment cover may result in

electric shock to the user.

■Before using your instrument, ensure it is completely dry.

■Use only the leads and accessories supplied. The use of leads (or other

accessories) of a lower voltage rating or category limits the use of the

instrument/leads (or accessories) combination to the lowest category and

service voltage.
