Page 16: Safety Information
Safety Information Safety Information This instrument and measurement units are designed to comply with IEC 61010 Safety Standards, and has been thoroughly tested for safety prior to shipment. However, mishan- dling during use could result in injury or death, as well as damage to the instrument and measurement units.
Page 17 Safety Information Symbols for Various Standards Indicates that the product conforms to regulations set out by the EU Directive. Indicates the ID number of the wireless module certified by the U.S. Federal Com- FCC ID munications Commission (FCC). Indicates the number of the wireless module certified by Industry Canada. This is a recycle mark established under the Resource Recycling Promotion Law (only for Japan).
Page 18 • Never use a measuring HiLogger that lacks category labeling in a CAT II to CAT IV measurement environment. Doing so could result in a serious accident. Hioki LR8510 Wireless Voltage/Temp Unit and LR8511 Wireless Universal Unit complies with CAT II (300 VAC, DC) safety requirements. CAT II:...
Page 19: Operating Precautions
Wireless Universal Unit and the Wireless Logging Station are encrypted using SSP, this does not guarantee the integrity or secrecy of transmitted data. Hioki is not liable for the electronic interception or unauthorized dis- closure by other means of measured values sent via wireless communi- cations.
Page 20 • Before using the instrument, make sure that the insulation on the cables is undamaged and that no bare conductors are improperly exposed. Using the instrument in such conditions could cause an electric shock, so contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller for replacements.
Page 21 Operating Precautions Handling the Instrument To avoid electric shock, do not remove the instrument's case. The internal components of the instrument carry high voltages and may become very hot during operation. Touching any of the high-voltage points inside the instrument is very dangerous.
Page 22 • Use the Z1007 Battery Pack with the instrument and measurement units. Use of other battery packs may damage the device or cause an accident. Hioki is not liable for such damage. "2.1 Using the Battery Pack (Option)" (p. 41) See: •...
Page 23 • Using this battery pack in devices other than those designated by Hioki may degrade its performance or service life, and some devices may trigger an abnormal current flow or damage the bat- tery pack, causing it to leak, become excessively hot, generate smoke, crack, or catch on fire.
Page 24 • Transport of lithium-ion batteries on aircraft is subject to restrictions based on UN recom- mendations. • Before repairing or calibrating devices that use the Z1007 Battery Pack or transporting them on an aircraft, contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller.
Page 25 Operating Precautions Using the AC Adapter • Use only the supplied Model Z1008 AC Adapter. AC adapter input voltage range is 100 to 240 VAC (with ±10% stability) at 50/60 Hz. To avoid electrical hazards and damage to the instrument and mea- surement units, do not apply voltage outside of this range.
Page 26 Operating Precautions Handling of temperature and humidity sensor Model Z2000 Humidity Sensor and Model Z2010/Z2011 Humidity Sensor are not dustproof or waterproof. Do not use the sensor in locations where it may be exposed to dust or water. It may cause a malfunction of the instrument.
Page 27 Operating Precautions Connection Precautions When connecting measurement cables to a Wireless Voltage/Temp Unit or Wireless Universal Unit Do not leave the Unit connected to test objects in environments where a voltage surge might exceed the dielectric withstand voltage. Doing so could result in damage to the measurement units, bodily injury or fatal accident.
Page 28 Please ensure that a voltage beyond specification, especially a surge such as a lightning, is never applied. When an abnormal measurement value is observed, please contact your authorized Hioki distributor or reseller for inspection. Input and Output Maximum Maximum rated Max.
Page 29 Operating Precautions When connecting to the instrument’s alarm output terminals or external con- trol terminal • To avoid electric shock or damage to the instrument, always observe the following precautions when connecting to alarm output terminals and External Control Terminals. •...
Page 30 Operating Precautions Using a SD memory card/USB flash drive • Store SD memory cards and USB flash drives out of reach of chil- dren to prevent accidental ingestion. • Do not modify, disassemble, or repair SD memory cards or USB flash drives.
Page 31 • Keep discs inside a protective case and do not expose to direct sunlight, high temperature, or high humidity. • Hioki is not liable for any issues your computer system experiences in the course of using this disc.

Page 332 Appendix 8 Concerning Noise Countermeasures Equivalent Circuit of Noise Introduction Path Measurements are directly affected by normal mode voltages from electromagnetical- ly induced noise resulting from electromagnetic coupling into looped measurement unit input lines by AC magnetic fields produced by inverters and commercial power lines, as well as the capacitive coupling that results from interline capacitance.
Page 333 Appendix 8 Concerning Noise Countermeasures Noise Countermeasure Example 1st. The Importance of Device Grounding Ground the measurement units securely The measurement units is designed so that the chassis is grounded when the three- prong power cord from the adapter is plugged directly into a grounded, three-prong receptacle.
Page 334 Appendix 8 Concerning Noise Countermeasures Running the measurement units on battery power/ Running a wireless logger on dry cells When the measurement unit is being powered by batteries Running a wireless logger on dry cells and the AC adapter is not connected, the ground current loop is eliminated, making it possible to reduce the effects of common mode noise.
