Regulatory Compliance

Safety Standards

EMC Directive
This instrument has been tested to meet the European Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC
Directive, 2004/108/EC). The Declaration of Conformity for your instrument lists the specific standards to
which the unit was tested.
The instrument was designed specifically as a test and measuring device. Compliance to the EMC directive
is through IEC 61326-1 Electrical equipment for measurement, control and laboratory use - EMC require-
ments (1998).
As noted in the IEC 61326-1, the instrument can have varying configurations. Emissions may, in non-typi-
cal applications, exceed the levels required by the standard. It is not practical to test all configurations, as
the manufacturer has no control over the user application of the instrument.
Immunity Testing
The instrument was tested to the requirements for laboratory locations.
Emission Testing
The instrument fulfills the limit requirements for Class A equipment but does not fulfill the limit
requirements for Class B equipment. The instrument was not designated to be used in domestic
establishments.
