WARNING
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that a
shock hazard exists when probes or sensors are exposed to
voltage levels greater than 42VDC or 42V peak AC. Do not
use this instrument where voltages at the measurement sur-
face exceed these levels.
WARNING
Do not substitute a metal part for the nylon screw in the rear
case. Doing so will degrade electrical isolation of the case.
WARNING
The battery is accessible through a cover on the back of the
instrument. To avoid electrical shock hazard, disconnect all
temperature probes and sensors and turn the unit off before
removing the cover.
WARNING
Never use this instrument or any probe or sensor inside a
microwave oven.
CAUTION
Avoid making sharp bends in probe or sensor lead wires.
Bending lead wires at a sharp angle can damage the wire
causing probe failure.
CAUTION
Keep inputs electrically isolated from outputs. Do not con-
nect an external voltage source between the two connectors,
and avoid any external electrical pathways between input
and output (T2 & T1).
Failure to do so will disturb meter readings and calibrator
output levels. Damage to the instrument is also possible.
Where the meter and calibrator connectors are simultane-
ously wired into a system lacking the above isolation, it is
necessary to use an "ungrounded" (i.e. electrically isolated)
probe at the thermometer input.
