  • Page 6: Safety

    ――――――――――――――――――――――――――― Safety DANGER This instrument is designed to comply with IEC 61010 Safety Standards, and has been thoroughly tested for safety prior to shipment. However, mishandling during use could result in injury or death, as well as damage to the instrument.
  • Page 7 ――――――――――――――――――――――――――― The following symbols in this manual indicate the relative importance of cautions and warnings. Indicates that incorrect operation presents extreme danger of accident DANGER resulting in death or serious injury to the user.  Indicates that incorrect operation presents a significant hazard that could WARNING result in serious injury or death to the user.
  • Page 8 ――――――――――――――――――――――――――― Safety Symbols symbol printed on the instrument indicates that the user should refer to a corresponding topic in the manual (marked with the symbol) before using the relevant function. In the manual, the symbol indicates particularly important information that the user should read before using the instrument.
  • Page 9 ――――――――――――――――――――――――――― Measurement categories (Overvoltage categories) This instrument complies with CAT III safety requirements. To ensure safe operation of measurement instruments, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, categorized as CAT I to CAT IV, and called measurement categories. These are defined as follows. CAT I : Secondary electrical circuits connected to an AC electrical outlet through a transformer or similar device.
  • Page 10 ――――――――――――――――――――――――――― Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical environments with greater momentary energy. So a measurement device designed for CAT III environments can endure greater momentary energy than a device designed for CAT II. Using a measurement instrument in an environment designated with a higher-numbered category than that for which the instrument is rated could result in a severe accident, and must be carefully avoided.
