4. Safety instructions

4.1 Special notes on use

• If the device is brought into the work-room from a cold environment there is a risk that condensation might form on the electronics. In measuring operations involving thermocouples pronounced changes in temperature may cause substantial measuring errors. You are advised therefore, before starting to use the device, to wait until it has adjusted to the ambient temperature.

•

•

• Before using the mains adapter make sure that the mains voltage is suitable.

Be sure to observe the maximum load capacity of the sensor power supply.

Sensors with their own integrated power supply are not electrically isolated from one another (s. 9.3).

4.2 Handling batteries / rechargeable batteries correctly

When inserting batteries / rechargeable batteries ensure that the polarity is correct.

If the device will probably not be needed for a relatively long period of time or if the batteries are empty, the batteries should be removed; this will prevent battery acid leaking onto the device and damaging it.

Rechargeable batteries should be recharged as and when necessary.

You should never attempt to recharge an ordinary (non-rechargeable) battery; it may explode.

Batteries / rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited or thrown onto the fire.

Batteries and rechargeable batteries are special waste and must not be discarded as normal domestic waste.
