    C: capacitance of the DUT If the time constant of the DUT is known, then the time required to discharge to 30V can be calculated by the above formula after the output is cut off. 8) Turn ON or OFF the Power Switch Once the power switch is turned off, be sure to allow several seconds or more before turning it ON again, never turn on and off the power switch repeatedly, so as not to cause erroneous actions.
  • Page 11 Warning: Keep away from the instrument after turning off the power and prevent other people from approaching. Do not immediately disassemble the test circuit. Immediately call our distributor or agent. High voltage may remain in the interior of the instrument. It is hazardous for an unqualified person to attempt to troubleshoot any tester problem.

  • Page 20 The electric shock protection setting has three options, namely OFF, ON and FLOAT (only SME1190 has high-voltage floating output function). OFF and ON means the function is turned off and on. FLOAT means that the two high voltage output HV1 (high end), HV2 (low end) are isolated from the earth (with very high insulation resistance), for details, see the floating part description below.

  • Page 21: System Environment Parameters Setting

    b) When the electric shock protection is set to FLOAT, the high-voltage output high terminal HV1, low terminal HV2 are in a float state, as shown in Figure 4-6. When the human body accidentally touches the test high voltage terminal, the low terminal HV2 of the high voltage circuit is not grounded ,but isolated from the ground, equivalent to connecting a high insulation resistance, therefore, the current through the human body will not exceed 3 mA, thus ensuring the safety of operator.
