DANGER
10:1 and 100:1 probe connections
The maximum rated to-voltage does not change when using a
9665 10:1PROBE or a 9666 100:1PROBE. To avoid electrical
shock or damaging the 8855 instrument, make probe
connections in such a manner that the method for the probe,
and make sure the to-ground voltage does not exceed the
rated maximum.
The maximum input voltage is 1,000 Vrms (1MHz max) for the
9665 10:1PROBE, and 5,000 Vpeak (1MHz max) for the 9666
100:1PROBE. (The measurement category (overvoltage
category) is the same as that of the input modules of
MEMORY HiCORDERs that use the 9665 and the 9666. ) Do not
measure voltages that exceed the maximum input voltage, as
the 8855 instrument could be damaged and an accidents
resulting in injury or death could result.
NOTE
2.8 9665 10:1 PROBE / 9666 100:1 PROBE
The 9665 10:1PROBE and the 9666 100:1PROBE cannot be used with the
8951 VOLTAGE/CURRENT UNIT, the 8954 VOLTAGE/TEMP UNIT, or
the 8955 F/V UNIT.
For details on the 9665 10:1PROBE and the 9666 100:1PROBE, refer to the
instruction manuals supplied with the respective probes.
