The instrument can operate from any single-phase
AC power source supplying 100 – 240 V in the
frequency range from 47 – 63 Hz. The maximum
power consumption is 350 VA with all options
installed. The power supply automatically adapts to
the applied AC power (Auto Selection) and monitors
the AC power range.
The mains plug can only be inserted in a socket
outlet that provides protective earth contact. Any
interruption of the protective earth contact inside or
outside the instrument makes any operation of the
instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is
prohibited.
When the front panel switch is off, the instrument
is in standby mode. The instrument can only be
disconnected from the AC line power by
disconnecting the power cord. The instrument
must be positioned so that the operator can easily
access the power cable inlet.
Ventilation Requirements
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
Make sure that there is adequate clearance of 50 mm (2 in) at the top and right side of the
instrument to ensure adequate air flow. If the air flow is restricted, the internal
operating temperature will be higher, reducing the instrument's reliability.
