Measurement category
Measurement category
This instrument can be used for measurement under class I.
Warning: This instrument is only allowed to be used in the specified
measurement class.
Measurement class definition
- Class I refers to measurements taken on a circuit not directly connected to the main power supply. For example, measurements made on circuits that are not exported from a main power supply, especially from a protected (internal) main power supply. In the latter case, the instantaneous stress will change. Therefore, the user should understand the instantaneous capacity of the instrument.
- Class II refers to measurements taken on a circuit directly connected to low-voltage instruments. For example, measurements made on household appliances, portable tools, and similar equipment.
- Class III refers to measurements taken on construction equipment. For example, measurements made on switchboards, circuit breakers, circuits (including cables, busbars, junction boxes, switches, sockets) in fixed equipment, as well as equipment for industrial use and certain other equipment (for example, fixed motors permanently connected to fixed instruments).
- Class IV refers to measurements taken at the source of low-voltage equipment. For example, measurements made on electricity meters, primary overcurrent protection equipment, and pulse control units.
Working conditions
Temperature
- Operating temperature: 0 – 45
- Storage temperature: 20 – 60
Humidity
- ≤+104(+40°C): relative humidity90%
- 106~122 (+41°C ~50°C): relative humidity60%
Warning:
To avoid the danger of short circuit or electric shock, do not operate the
instrument in a humid environment.
Altitude
- When operating: below 3,000 meters.
- When not operating: below 15,000 meters.
Installation (over voltage) Class This product is powered by a main power source that complies with Installation (over voltage) Class II.
Warning:
Make sure that no overvoltage (such as that caused by lightning) reaches the
product. Otherwise the operator may be in danger of receiving an electric
shock. Installation (overvoltage) Class definition
Class I refers to the signal level, which is applicable to the measuring
terminal of the instrument connected to the source circuit. Measures have been
taken to limit the instantaneous voltage to the corresponding low level. Class
II refers to the local distribution level, which is applicable to instruments
connected to the mains (AC) supply.
Degree of pollution: Class 2
Pollution level definition
- Level 1: No pollution, or only dry non-conductive pollution. This pollution level has no impact. For example: clean room or air-conditioned office environment.
- Level 2: Generally, only dry non-conductive pollution. Temporary conduction due to condensation may sometimes occur. For example: general indoor environment.
- Level 3: Conductive pollution, or dry non-conductive pollution becoming conductive due to condensation. For example, an outdoor environment with a canopy.
- Level 4: Permanent conductive pollution through conductive dust, rain, or snow. For example: outdoor places.
Security level
Level 1 – Grounded products
Maintenance and cleaning
Maintenance: Do not make the LCD exposed to direct sunlight for a long
time when placing the oscilloscope.
Cleaning: Regularly check the oscilloscope and probe according to the
requirements of the operating conditions, please follow the following steps to
clean the outer surface of the instrument:
- Using a lint-free cloth to remove the dust from the outside of the oscilloscope and probe. Please be careful to avoid scratching the smooth display filter material.
- Using a soft cloth soaked with water to clean the oscilloscope. For more thoroughly clean, use 75% isopropyl alcohol aqueous solvent
Note: To avoid damage to the oscilloscope or the surface of the probe,
please do not use any corrosive reagent or chemical cleaning reagent.
Warning: Before repowering, please make sure the instrument is completely dry,
to avoid electrical short circuit or even personal injury caused by moisture.
