6. Ambient conditions
- The BENNING MM 7 is designed only for measuring in dry surroundings,
- Maximum barometric height during measurement: 2000 m.
- Overvoltage category / set-up category: IEC 664/ IEC 1010-1 → 600 V cate-
gory III; 1000 V category II.
- Degree of contamination: 2.
- Protective system: IP 30 (DIN VDE 0470-1 IEC/ EN 60529).
IP 30 means: Protection against access to dangerous parts and protection
against solid impurities of a diameter > 2.5 mm, (3 - first index). No protec-
tion against water, (0 - second index).
- Operating temperature and relative humidity:
At operating temperature of 0 °C to 30 °C: relative humidity under 80 %.
At operating temperature of 30 °C to 40 °C: relative humidity under 75 %.
- At operating temperature of 40 °C to 50 °C: relative humidity under 45 %.
- Storage temperature: The BENNING MM 7 can be stored at temperatures
from - 20 °C to + 60 °C (humidity 0 up to 80 %). The batteries must be
removed from the unit.
7. Electrical data
Note: The measurement accuracy is stated as the sum of
- a relative proportion of the measurement value and
- a number of digits (i.e. numerical steps of the last place).
This measurement accuracy applies for a temperature of 18 °C to 28 °C and a
maximum relative humidity of max. 80 %.
7.1 DC voltage ranges
The input resistance is 10 MΩ (in 400 mV-range 1 GΩ).

7.2 AC voltage ranges
The input resistance is 10 MΩ parallel 100 pF. The measurement value is
obtained as a true RMS value and displayed as such. With non-sinusoidal
curves, the value displayed is less accurate. This results in an additional error
for the following crest factors:
Crest factor of 1.4 to 3.0, additional error + 1.5 %.
Crest factor of 3.0 to 4.0, additional error + 3.0 %.
