The device was designed to operate safely if the instructions provided in the accompanying docu- ments are followed. Any other use may jeopardise the safety of the operator. Any use other than those specified in the instructions is therefore dangerous and forbidden. © SIKA • Ba_UC-RTD.2_en • 01/2019 - 8 -... -
Page 9: Making Measurements
CAT II 60V: The notion of categories determines the maximum transient voltage that can be applied to the meas- urement inputs (it is also called overvoltage category). For the SIKA UC RTD.2, the maximum per- missible overvoltage is 60V (DC or AC) POL 2: The notion of pollution determines the clearance between circuits. -
