Risk of electric shock
Notes about Usage
Ground the oscilloscope
Make sure to connect the protective grounding terminal of the oscilloscope to ground.
Check grounding
Before connecting the probe input terminal to the circuit under measurement, ensure that the
measuring instrument is grounded properly and that the probe's BNC connector is connected
the oscilloscope input.
Be careful of electric shock
Never use the probe with wet hands or when the probe itself is wet. Doing so may cause
electric shock. Be careful of electric shock when you connect the probe to the circuit under
measurement.
Observe the maximum input voltage
Do not apply voltage exceeding 1400 V (DC + ACpeak) between an input lead and ground or
between two input leads. The maximum input voltage is 1400 V (DC + ACpeak) regardless
of whether 50:1 or 500:1 attenuation is used.
Do not touch exposed circuitry
To prevent injury, do not touch exposed live connections or components.
Connect and disconnect the probe properly
Do not disconnect the probe from the oscilloscope while the probe is connected to the circuit
under measurement. Doing so may cause electric shock.
Do not use in damp places
To prevent electric shock, do not use the probe in damp places.
Do not use in an explosive atmosphere
To prevent fire and injury, do not use the probe in a flammable or explosive atmosphere or
near steam.
Do not disassemble or modify
Do not disassemble or modify the product. YOKOGAWA assumes no liability if you
disassemble or modify the product.
Damaged Signal Cable
If the signal cable is torn and the inner metal is exposed or if a color different from the outer
sheath appears, stop using the cable immediately.
Stop use if you suspect damage
If you suspect that the probe is broken, consult your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer.

WARNING
• This product has not been designed or manufactured for applications in which high
reliability is required over a long period of time. This probe is not water or dust resistant.
Do not use the probe in areas with a lot of dust or where water may be spilled.
• Avoid storing or using the probe in direct sunlight or in areas with high temperature,
humidity, or condensation. Deformation and insulation deterioration can occur causing
the probe to no longer meet the specifications.
• Avoid vibration, shock, and static electricity during shipping and handling. Take extra care
not to drop the probe.
Operating Environment Limitations
See below for operating environment limitations.
This product is a Class A (for industrial environments) product. Operation of this product in
a residential area may cause radio interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference.
1. Overview
The PBDH0150 Differential Probe (Model 701927) is a 150 MHz bandwidth, high-voltage,
differential input probe that is used in combination with DLM series or other digital oscilloscopes that
have the YOKOGAWA probe interface (hereafter referred as oscilloscope with the probe IF).*
To use the probe, simply connect it to a BNC input terminal on an oscilloscope with the probe IF.
Touch the device under measurement with the probe tip to observe the voltage waveform.

Attenuation Switch
Switches between 50:1 and 500:1 attenuation.
Overload Indicator
When the differential input voltage exceeds the following value, the indicator lights.
±140 V (DC + ACpeak) at 50:1 attenuation
±1400 V (DC + ACpeak) at 500:1 attenuation
Probe Interface
The section of the probe that connects to the digital oscilloscope input.
Interface Spring Pins
When the probe interface is connected, these pins touch the pad on the oscilloscope interface
board. The probe's power is supplied through these interface pins. These interface pins are also
used by the oscilloscope to automatically detect the probe attenuation setting.
Latch Release Lever
Releases the lock connecting the probe interface to the oscilloscope input.
Variable Resistor for Adjusting Offset Voltage
You can adjust the offset voltage using an appropriate screwdriver as described below.
Adjustment Screwdriver
Use an adjustment screwdriver that matches the adjustment groove. Using a
W
screwdriver with a large grip or a screwdriver with a small head can damage
the adjustment turn stop or groove.
