nectors tightly to avoid power leakage. Contact with leaking RF power can cause
electric shock and severe skin burns. Take the following measures for your safety:
● Before switching on the RF power of your test setup, make sure that both RF
ports of the power sensor are connected securely as described in the product
documentation.
● Do not touch the RF ports when the RF power is switched on.
● Never exceed the permissible continuous power that is shown in the diagram
on the back of the power sensor.
● Before disconnecting one or both RF ports of the power sensor, switch off the
RF power.
