1.2. Protection
devices
ASYC II series instruments are fitted with various protection devices :
A protection by varistors allows a chopping of transient overvoltages present at
the terminals of measurement.
A PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) resistor protects against permanent
overvoltages of up to 600 V during resistance, capacitance and diode test
measurements.
This
protection
is reset automatically after overload.
One F1 intrinsically safe fuse provides protection during current measurements.
A special intrinsic safety case ensures IP 67 sealing.
1.3. Safety
devices
The battery unit and fuse cannot be accessed without first disconnecting the
measuring leads.
When measuring voltages above 24 V, the sign blinks
on the display.
If the maximum range is repeatedly exceeded, an intermittent audible signal
indicates the risk of electric shock.
