Exclusively the FORT®accessory articles or spare parts described in this instructions manual may be
used in connection with the device. Always consult and follow the national and international
operations and safety regulations, Norms or regulatory authority’s advice.
The device can be connected to the public electric supply mains through a ‘IEC-plug lead’ included
in the delivery or a ‘IEC-plug lead’ which complies with the local socket standards.
The system accepts faultlessly all power supplies known worldwide with alternate currents of
96 VAC to 246 VAC at 46 to 60 Hz. For safe operation, the device needs a reliable potential earth (PE)
connection. In case of doubt, an expert or the manufacturer must be consulted.
The minimum output supplied by the power connection can be derived from the device
specifications contained in the instructions.
:: Warning
When operating the device outside the permissible operating conditions or with destruction caused
by usage which deviates from the instructions, non-compliance with the operating conditions or
through the usage of non-original spare parts or accessories as well as through impermissible
opening of the device, the guarantee obligation or the guarantee commitment by the supplier or
manufacturer lapses, in principle.
When operating the device outside the permissible operating conditions or with destruction caused
by usage which deviates from the instructions, non-compliance with the operating conditions or
through the usage of non-original spare parts or accessories as well as through impermissible ope-
ning of the device, the guarantee obligation or the guarantee commitment by the supplier or manu-
facturer lapses, in principle.
Never connect a triploar plug to a bipolar socket! Avoid any contact between VISIO PRIME
(and all working equipment) and components carrying electrical charges.
The system must be earthed properly in case of an electrified application in relationship to the
ground. If impossible, connect the system to the application or the ground (depending on which one
the user needs to touch). The user needs to be isolated against the current path of the earthed path.
Never insert the probe in plant parts the contents of which are unknown!
Never bring the probe in contact with corrosive substances of any kind (acid or alkali).
Risk of damage and injury while manipulating the probe. Never bring the probe in contact
with solvent containing liquids! Risk of damage!
The video probe of the device must never be used in or in the vicinity of apparatus or equipment,
which are partly or fully energized by electric current of any type (e.g. transformers, motors,
generators, switchboards etc.). The metallic mesh of the probe conducts electricity and dangerous
currents are transmitted during every contact or even short-circuits can be triggered in the plant.
The device must never be operated with damaged video probe. There is a risk of damage to hand
due to the metallic protective mesh (suggestion: always wear work gloves for protection).
At the same time, there is a danger that liquids might penetrate the probe and thereby impair the
functioning permanently or might cause a life-threatening electric shock to the operator!
Even the use of a slightly damaged probe can quickly lead to the total destruction of the probe
due to destruction of the light fibres or the electric conductors lying inside. The operation of a
damaged probe is impermissible within the area of jurisdiction of the European Union, since the
regulations on emission of electro-magnetic radiation can no longer be adhered to with safety.
