Safety Notes - Ahlborn ALMEMO ZAD 900-AB Series Instruction Manual

3 Safety Notes

→ The measuring modules are – depending on the type – able to measure
voltages, currents and powers for potentials above 50V. During operation
and especially when connecting the measuring module or the adaptor plug,
make sure that you do not touch any high voltage components.
→ When connecting the measuring modules for AC /DC signals or the adaptor
plug, use the supplied touch proof connector cables (or equivalent).
→ The measuring module for DC signals must only be used for direct voltage
respectively direct current according to the measuring range indicated on
the type plate.
→ Be particularly careful that the current modules are always connected in
series to the load i.e. in an input lead, and that they must not be directly
connected to the voltage source. When using the adaptor plug, make sure to
connect the appropriate sockets of the adaptor plug and the measuring
module (A-A, V-V, COM-COM). In this context, the color of the sockets must
be taken into account.
→ Never use the measuring device, the measuring module or the adaptor plug
in wet or damp environments.
→ Keep the plastic housing away from open fire and hot surfaces (e.g.
burners).
→ The measuring module and the adaptor plug must no longer be used when
damaged on the outside or in case they do no longer work, possibly due to
an incorrect connection attempt.
→ In case the measuring module or the adaptor plug was used for purposes
other than intended or was used incorrectly, we cannot accept any liability
for any damages caused as a result.
→ If the measuring module or the adaptor plug is used in a way that is not
intended by the manufacturer, the protection supported by the device may
be impaired.
→ The measuring module`s internal current measurement path is not intended
for continuous operation for currents greater than 10A. In that case, the
measurement can only be run for a maximum of 10 minutes. After this
period of time, the device must be cooled down to ambient temperature.
→ The adaptor plug shall only be used for the actual measurement.
