Unpack and Inspection
The calibrator is shipped in a container to prevent damage. Examine the calibrator
carefully for damage and immediately report damage to the shipper. Instructions for
inspection and claims are included in the shipping container.
When you unpack the calibrator, make sure that you have all the standard equipment in
Table 2. Examine the shipping list to make sure other items that you purchased are
included. Refer to the “Accessories” section in Chapter 8 of the Operators Manual for
more information. Report missing items to the point of purchase or to the nearest Fluke
Calibration Service Center (see “Contact Fluke Calibration”). A performance test is in the
“Maintenance” section of Chapter 7 in the Operators Manual.
If you ship the calibrator to Fluke Calibration, use the initial container. If it is not
available, you can get a new container from Fluke Calibration with the Calibrator model
and serial number.

Select Line Voltage
The Calibrator comes from the factory configured for the line voltage typically applicable
for the country of purchase, or as specified at the time of your purchase order. You can
operate the Calibrator from one of four line-voltage settings: 100 V, 120 V, 200 V, and
240 V (47 Hz to 63 Hz). To verify the line-voltage setting, note the voltage setting that
you can see through the window in the power-line fuse compartment cover (Figure 3).
The permitted line-voltage variation is 10 % above or below the line-voltage setting.
To change the line-voltage setting, complete the following procedure:
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury,
disconnect line power.
1. To open the fuse compartment, put a screwdriver blade in the tab on the left side of
the compartment and pry until it can be removed.
2. To remove the line-voltage selector assembly, hold the line-voltage indicator tab with
pliers and pull it straight out of its connector.
3. Turn the line-voltage selector assembly to the necessary voltage and reinsert.
4. Make sure to use the correct fuse for the selected line voltage (100 V/120 V, use
5 A/250 V slow blow, 220 V/240 V, use 2.5 A/250 V slow blow). To install the fuse
compartment, push it into position until the tab locks.
