Temperature Coefficient Temperature Coefficient for temperatures outside tcal +5 °C is 0.1X/ °C of the 90-day
specification (or 1-year, as applicable) per °C.
Relative Humidity
[1]
• Operating: <80 % to 30 °C, <70 % to 40 °C, <40 % to 50 °C
• Storage: <95 %, non-condensing
Altitude

Safety Complies with IEC 1010-1 (1992-1); ANSI/ISA-S82.01-1994;
CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 1010.1-92
Analog Low Isolation 20 V
EMC Designed to comply with FCC Rules Part 15; VFG 243/1991. If used in areas with
Electromagnetic fields of 1 to 3 V/m, resistance outputs have a floor adder of
0.508 Ω. Performance not specified above 3 V/m. This instrument may be susceptible
to electro-static discharge (ESD) from direct contact to the binding posts. Good static
aware practices should be followed when handling this and other pieces of
electronic equipment.
Line Power
• Line Voltage (selectable): 100 V, 120 V, 220 V, 240 V
• Line Frequency: 47 Hz to 63 Hz
• Line Voltage Variation: ±10 % about line voltage setting
