HT65 1. PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY MEASURES The instrument has been designed in compliance with directive IEC/EN61010-1 relevant to electronic measuring instruments. For your safety and in order to prevent damaging the instrument, please carefully follow the procedures described in this manual and read all notes preceded by symbol with the utmost attention.
HT65 1.2. DURING USE Please carefully read the following recommendations and instructions: CAUTION Failure to comply with the caution notes and/or instructions may damage the instrument and/or its components or be a source of danger for the operator. Before activating the rotary switch, disconnect the test leads from the circuit being measured.
HT65 2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The instrument carries out the following measurements: DC Voltage up to 1500V AC TRMS Voltage up to 1000V DC/AC TRMS Voltage with low impedance (LoZ) DC/AC TRMS Current with transducer clamps Resistance and Continuity test Diode test...
HT65 3. PREPARATION FOR USE 3.1. INITIAL CHECKS Before shipping, the instrument has been checked from an electric as well as mechanical point of view. All possible precautions have been taken so that the instrument is delivered undamaged. However, we recommend generally checking the instrument in order to detect possible damage suffered during transport.
HT65 4.2. DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION KEYS 4.2.1. HOLD/ Pressing the HOLD/ key freezes the value of the measured quantity on the display. After pressing this key, the message HOLD appears on the display. Press the HOLD/ “ ” key again to exit the function. Press and hold the same key for longer than one second to activate and deactivate the display s backlight.
HT65 5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 5.1. DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT CAUTION The maximum input DC voltage is 1500V. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding voltage limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument...
HT65 5.2. AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT CAUTION The maximum input AC voltage is 1000V. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding voltage limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument.
HT65 5.3. AC/DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT WITH LOW IMPEDANCE (LOZ) CAUTION The maximum input AC/DC voltage is 600V. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding voltage limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument.
HT65 5.4. FREQUENCY AND DUTY CYCLE MEASUREMENT CAUTION The maximum input AC voltage is 1000V. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding voltage limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument.
HT65 5.5. RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT AND CONTINUITY TEST CAUTION Before attempting any resistance measurement, cut off power supply from the circuit to be measured and make sure that all capacitors are discharged, if present. Fig. 6: Use of the instrument for Resistance measurement and Continuity test 1.
HT65 5.6. DIODE TEST CAUTION Before attempting any resistance measurement, cut off power supply from the circuit to be measured and make sure that all capacitors are discharged, if present. Fig. 7: Use of the instrument for diode test 1. Select position 2.
HT65 5.7. CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENT CAUTION Before carrying out capacitance measurements on circuits or capacitors, cut off power supply from the circuit being tested and let all capacitance in it be discharged. When connecting the multimeter and the capacitance to be measured, respect the correct polarity (when required).
HT65 5.8. TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT WITH K-TYPE PROBE CAUTION Before attempting any temperature measurement, cut off power supply from the circuit to be measured and make sure that all capacitors are discharged, if present. Fig. 9: Use of the instrument for Temperature measurement 1.
The instrument performs the measurement by using standard clamp transducers of HT family. For transducer clamps with Hypertac output connector is necessary the NOCANBA optional adapter in order to perform the connection Fig.
The instrument performs the measurement by using both flexible transducer clamp (optional accessory F3000U) and other standard clamp transducers of HT family. For transducer clamps with Hypertac output connector is necessary the NOCANBA optional adapter in order to perform the connection Fig.
HT65 6. MAINTENANCE CAUTION Only expert and trained technicians should perform maintenance operations. Before carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect all cables from the input terminals. Do not use the instrument in environments with high humidity levels or high temperatures. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
