HT4011 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 the symbol with the utmost attention.
HT4011 1.2. DURING USE Please carefully read the following recommendations and instructions: CAUTION Failure to comply with the Caution notes may damage the instrument and/or its components or be a source of danger for the operator. Before activating the switch, remove the conductor from the clamp jaw or disconnect the test leads from the circuit under test.
HT4011 2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The instrument carries out the following measurements: DC and AC voltage up to 600V AC current up to 400A Resistance and continuity test with buzzer Capacitance Frequency with leads Duty Cycle ...
HT4011 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.
HT4011 4.2. DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION KEYS 4.2.1. HOLD key Short pressing the “HOLD” key activates the function Data HOLD, i.e. the value of the measured quantity is frozen. The message “HOLD” appears on the display. This operating mode is disabled when the “HOLD” key is pressed again or the switch is operated.
HT4011 4.3. DESCRIPTION OF ROTARY SWITCH FUNCTIONS 4.3.1. DC voltage measurement CAUTION The maximum input DC voltage is 600Vrms. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding these limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument.
HT4011 4.3.2. AC voltage measurement CAUTION The maximum input AC voltage is 600V. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding these limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument.
HT4011 4.3.3. Frequency and Duty Cycle measurement CAUTION When measuring frequency with leads, the maximum input AC voltage is 600Vrms. Do not measure voltages exceeding the limits given in this manual. Exceeding these limits could result in electrical shocks to the user and damage to the instrument.
HT4011 4.3.4. Resistance measurement CAUTION Before attempting any resistance measurement, remove power from the circuit under test and discharge all capacitors, if present. Fig. 5: Use of the clamp for Resistance measurement 1. Select the position 2. Insert the red cable into input terminal V...
HT4011 4.3.5. 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. Fig. 6: Use of the clamp for capacitance measurement 1.
HT4011 4.3.6. Continuity test and diode test CAUTION Before attempting any resistance measurement, remove power from the circuit under test and discharge all capacitors, if present. Fig. 7: Use of the clamp for continuity test and diode test 1. Select the position ...
HT4011 4.3.7. Temperature measurement in °C and °F CAUTION Do not put the temperature probe into contact with live surfaces. Voltages higher than 30Vrms or 60VDC imply electrical shock hazard. Fig. 8: Use of the clamp for temperature measurement 1. Select the Temp°C or Temp°F position.
HT4011 4.3.8. AC current measurement CAUTION Before attempting any measurement disconnect all the test leads from the circuit under test and from the meter's input terminals. Fig. 9: Use of the clamp for AC current measurement 1. Select position 40A or 400A 2.
