1.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE These instructions are intended to ensure the safety of users and proper operation of the instrument. This instrument is compliant with the IEC 61010- 2-032 or BS EN 61010-2-032 safety standards for voltages of 300 V in measurement category IV or 600 V in category III.
1.2 RECEIVING YOUR SHIPMENT Upon receiving your shipment, make sure that the contents are consistent with the packing list. Notify your distributor of any missing items. If the equipment distributor at once with a detailed description of any damage. Save the damaged packing container to substantiate your claim.
2. PRODUCT FEATURES 2.1 DESCRIPTION The Models MR415 and MR416 are clamp-on current probes that measure DC currents up to 600 A, AC currents up to 400 A (600 A ), and combined AC+DC currents without opening the circuit. They indicate the shape and amplitude of the current measured in the form of a voltage.
2.2 INTERFACE Figure 1 (MR416 shown) Item Fixed jaw (does not move when the trigger is pressed) Banana plugs (4 mm) DC Zero button OL (overload) and ON indicators. ON is green when Auto Standby is enabled, and it is yellow when disabled. P (Permanent mode) indicator.
