Safety Instructions
These safety instructions are intended to prevent hazardous situations and/or
equipment damage.
These instructions indicate the level of potential hazard with the labels of
"Caution", "Warning" or "Danger". They are all important notes for safety and must
be followed in addition to International standards (ISO/IEC) and other safety
regulations.
CAUTION indicates a hazard with a low level of risk
Caution:
which, if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury.
WARNING indicates a hazard with a medium level of
Warning:
risk which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
DANGER indicates a hazard with a high level of risk
Danger:
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
Operator
This operation manual is intended for those who have knowledge of machinery
using pneumatic equipment, and have sufficient knowledge of assembly,
operation and maintenance of such equipment. Only those persons are
allowed to perform assembly, operation and maintenance.
Read and understand this operation manual carefully before assembling,
operating or providing maintenance to the product.
Safety Instructions
Warning
Do not disassemble, modify (including change of printed circuit board) or repair.
An injury or failure can result.
Do not operate outside of the specification.
Fire, malfunction or damage can result.
Please use it after confirming the specification.
Do not operate in an atmosphere containing flammable or explosive gases.
Fire or an explosion can result.
The product is not designed to be explosion proof.
Caution
Avoid strong impact on the product
Do not drop, hit or apply excessive shock to the product while handling.
It can cause failure.
Do not contact the sensor with the measured target.
It can cause failure.
Do not handle with wet hands.
This can cause electric shock.
Provide grounding to ensure safety and accurate measurement.
Improper grounding of the ground wire can cause electrical charge to build up at the sensor and ground terminal of
the product and discharge to the user.

Assembly
Insertion of batteries
Slide the cover of the case open to insert the batteries.
Use 2 x AA (LR6) alkaline dry cell batteries.
When inserting the batteries, pay attention to the polarities and insert them in
the correct direction.
After insertion, ensure the cover is closed correctly.
Mounting of the high voltage measuring handle (option)
1. Insert the sensor into the handle in the
direction shown.
2. Fix the cable to the handle as shown.
Handle
3. The assembly is complete and the handle is
now ready for use.
Setting / Adjustment
Procedure
1. Insert the batteries.
2. Connect the ground wire.
Connect the ground wire to a point suitable for connection to an external
protective earthing system.
The position for attaching the ground wire to the Handheld meter is shown
below.
Ground wire
3. Press the button.
4. Move the sensor closer to the position 50 mm away from the measured target.
Gradually bring the sensor closer to the measured target from a distance, and
stop measurement immediately if the displayed value indicates overflow
(HHH) or underflow (LLL).
(The target has a high charged potential that is highly dangerous. The
measured value does not change even if the distance is shortened.)
5. Check the display.

•Peak hold value
The maximum charged potential and "P" are displayed.
The maximum charged potential is continuously detected and updated from
when the peak hold is started. If the value over the held maximum charged
potential is detected, the display will change.
•Bottom hold value
The minimum charged potential and "b" are displayed.
The minimum charged potential is continuously detected and updated from
when the bottom hold is started. If the value under the held minimum
charged potential is detected, the display will change.
Zero clear
A displayed value can be adjusted to zero at
measured charged potential in a range of ±5%F.S. of
default potential.
(There will be a slight displacement, depending on
the deviation of the sensor itself and ambient
environment of the sensor when the zero clear is performed.)
When the and are pressed for 6 s. or more with the power supply on,
the displayed value is reset to zero, and then the measuring mode is
recovered automatically.
Once the power supply is turned off, the offset value for zero clear is cleared.
Back Light
When the is pressed while the charged potential
is displayed, the back light will turn on.
Press the button again to turn off the back light.
Battery low
When the battery voltage becomes low "L" will be
displayed. The display will vary depending on how
much battery is left.

Troubleshooting Method
Return to a condition without
charge, and retry zero clear
operation.
Stop using immediately and
contact SMC.
Turn off the power supply
once, and turn it on again. If
the error persists contact
SMC.
Remove the charge until the
value is within the
measurable voltage range.
Also, check the measuring
distance.
Stop using immediately and
contact SMC.
