  Risk of electric shock
  Hot surface

Make sure to observe the following safety precautions to prevent electric shock, personal 

injury, or damage to the instrument.

 WARNING

•  Use the Instrument Only for Its Intended Purpose

  This instrument is a current output type current sensor. Use the instrument only for 

measuring current.

•  Beware of electric shock.

•  Do not perform measurement if the case is damaged.

•  Do not operate the instrument with wet hands, in a rainy or humid environment, or if any 

water droplets are visible on it.

•  Condensation may appear if sudden changes in temperature occur. If this happens, let 

the instrument acclimatize to the new temperatures for at least one hour, then refrain from 

using the instrument until confirming that there is no condensation.

•  Do not disassemble the instrument.

  The instrument should be disassembled by qualified personnel only.

•  Use the correct power supply.

  Ensure that the source voltage matches the voltage of the power supply before turning the 

power ON.

•  Do not use uninsulated measurement conductors or cables.

  Use conductors or cables with reinforced insulation.

•  Make sure that the surface temperature of measurement conductors is within the 

instrument's operating temperature range.

•  Although it is well-insulated, do not touch the instrument or secondary output cable while 

voltage is being applied to the primary conductor.

•  Connect the secondary signal output before supplying power to the instrument.

•  Do not disconnect the secondary output while power is being supplied to the instrument to 

prevent electric shock or damage to the instrument.

•  Do not apply primary current before supplying power to the instrument to prevent electric 

shock or damage to the instrument.

•  Do not input excessive current as malfunction or damage may result.

•  Do not allow vibrations to disturb the instrument after it has been set in place as damage may result.

 AVERTISSEMENT

• 

Utiliser l’instrument aux seules fins pour lesquelles il est prévu

Cet instrument est un capteur de courant du type de débit de courant. Utiliser l’instrument 

uniquement pour mesurer le courant.

•  Faire attention aux chocs électriques.

•  Ne pas effectuer une mesure si le boîtier est endommagé.

•  Ne pas faire fonctionner le dispositif avec les mains humides, dans un environnement 

pluvieux ou humide, ou si des gouttelettes d’eau sont visibles dessus

•  La condensation peut s’effectuer et les changements brusques de température se 

produisent. Si cela se produit, laisser le dispositif s’acclimater aux nouvelles températures 

pendant au moins une heure, puis éviter de l’utiliser jusqu’à confirmer qu’il n’y a pas de 

condensation.

•  Ne pas démonter le dispositif.

  Le dispositif doit être démonté uniquement par un personnel qualifié.

•  Vérifier l’alimentation.

 S’assurer que la source de tension correspond à la tension de l’alimentation avant la mise 

sous tension.

•  Ne pas utiliser de conducteurs ou de câbles de mesure non isolés.

Utiliser des conducteurs ou des câbles avec isolation renforcée.

  S’assurer que la température de surface des conducteurs de mesure se situe dans la plage 

de température de fonctionnement du dispositif.

Thank you for purchasing the AC/DC Current Sensor. To ensure correct use, please read this manual 

thoroughly before beginning operation.

Please familiarize yourself with the functions and characteristics of the AC/DC current sensor prior to 

operation. After reading this manual, keep it in a safe place.

  Bien qu’il soit bien isolé, ne pas toucher le dispositif ou le câble de sortie secondaire pendant 

que la tension s’applique au conducteur primaire.

  Connecter la sortie du signal secondaire avant d’alimenter le dispositif.

  Ne pas débrancher la sortie secondaire lorsque l’alimentation électrique est fournie au 

dispositif afin d’éviter tout risque de choc électrique ou d’endommagement de l’instrument.

  Ne pas appliquer de courant primaire avant d’alimenter le dispositif afin d’éviter tout risque 

d’électrocution ou d’endommager l’instrument.

  Ne pas entrer de courant excessif, car un dysfonctionnement ou des dommages peuvent en 

résulter.

  Ne pas laisser les vibrations perturber le dispositif après qu’il a été mis en place, car des 

dommages peuvent en résulter.

4. Operating Procedure

 CAUTION

Ensure that the current flowing to the conductor of the object to be measured is within the measuring 

range. If the current exceeds the measuring range, the instrument may overheat and get damaged.

French

 ATTENTION

S’assurer que le courant qui s’achemine vers le conducteur de l’objet à mesurer se situe 

dans la plage de mesure. Si le courant dépasse la plage de mesure, le dispositif peut 

surchauffer et subir des dommages.

1. 

Connect the secondary connector on the instrument to the current input terminal on the 

measuring instrument, and connect to 0 V (common) and ±15 V on the power supply.

2. 

Set up the measuring instrument and power supply to match the specifications of the current 

transducer. Carefully read the user’s manuals for your measuring instrument and power supply 

to perform the correct procedure for making the connections.
