Cautions - Fluke 9132 User Manual

• Overhead clearance is required. DO NOT place this instrument under a
cabinet or other structure.
• DO NOT use this unit for any application other than calibration work.
• DO NOT use this unit in environments other than those listed in the
user's guide.
• DO NOT operate near flammable materials.
• Use of this instrument at HIGH TEMPERATURES for extended periods
of time requires caution.
• Completely unattended high temperature operation is not recommended
for safety reasons.
• Before initial use, after transport, and anytime the dry-well has not been
energized for more than 10 days, the calibrator must be energized for a
dry-out period of 1 to 2 hours before it can be assumed to meet all of the
safety requirements of the IEC1010-1.
• The instrument can generate extreme temperatures. Precautions must be
taken to prevent personal injury or damage to objects.
• Use only a grounded AC mains supply of the appropriate voltage to
power the instrument. Refer to Section 3.1, Specifications for power de-
tails.
• The instrument is equipped with operator accessible system fuses. If a
fuse blows, it may be due to a power surge or failure of a component. Re-
place the fuse once. If the fuse blows a second time, it is likely caused by
failure of a component part. If this occurs, contact an Authorized Hart
Scientific Service Center (see Section 1.3). Always replace the fuse with
one of the same rating, voltage, and type. Never replace the fuse with one
of a higher current rating.
• Follow all safety guidelines listed in the user's manual.
• Calibration Equipment should only be used by Trained Personnel.
1.2.2

Cautions

• DO NOT plug the unit into 230V if the heater switches and fuse holder
read 115V. This action will cause the fuses to blow and may damage the
instrument.
• Components and heater lifetime can be shortened by continuous high
temperature operation.
• DO NOT use fluids to clean the target surface.
• DO NOT change the values of the calibration constants from the factory
set values. The correct setting of these parameters is important to the
safety and proper operation of the calibrator.
• DO use a ground fault interrupt device.
