Model UT51-55: OPERATING MANUAL Contents A B C D E F G Your Meters Feature Specifications Making Measurements Maintenance Accessories Using Holster Using Strap Introduction One kind of UNI-T brand new UT50 series Multimeters is a 3 1/2 digit with steady function and highly reliable hand-held measuring instrument. The Meter uses large scale of integrated circuit with double integrated A/D converter as its core and has full range overload protection.
Model UT51-55: OPERATING MANUAL Safety Rules l The UNI-T UT50 series comply with IEC 61010: in pollution degree 2, overvoltage category (CAT I 1000V and CAT II 600V) and double insulation. Use the Meter only as specified in this manual, otherwise the protection provided by the Meter may be impaired. l CAT I-For signal level, telecommunication, electronic with small transient over voltage. l CAT II -For local level, appliances, main wall outlets, portable equipment.
Model UT51-55: OPERATING MANUAL l l l l l l l l l l Make sure to use new fuses with proper rating in stead of bad fuses . To avoid electric shock or damages, do not apply more than 1000V between the "COM" terminals and" "earth ground. Use caution when working with Voltages above 60V (DC) or 30Vrms (AC). These Voltages pose shock hazard. Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator " " appears.
