established by the professional associations for

electrical system and equipment must be strictly

met at all times.

• In order to avoid electrical shock, the valid safety

regarding excessive contact voltages must receive

utmost attention, when working with voltages

exceeding 120V (60V) DC or 50V (25V) rms AC. The

values in bracket are valid for limited ranges (as

for example medicine and agriculture).

• Never connect the tester to voltage for longer

than 30 seconds. For next operation, a recovery

time of minimum 240 seconds is needed

• The instrument may only be used within the

operating ranges as speciﬁed in the technical data

section and in low voltage system up to 600V.

• Measurements in dangerous proximity of electrical

system are only to be carried out in compliance

humidity <80%.

• Test leads and test probes may only be touched

at handle surfaces provided. Absolutely avoid the

direct contact of the rest probes.

• Prior to usage ensure perfect instrument function

(e.g. on known voltage source).

• The instrument may only be opened by an

authorized service technician.

The safety can no longer be insured if the instrument:

• Shows obvious damage.

• Does not carry out the desired measurements.

• Has been stored for too long under unfavorable
