5.1.15 A fter switch on the battery symbol appears at the top right in the display
for about 5 seconds (
tery capacity is indicated by four segments. The battery symbol persists
if only one segment or none is displayed. The battery symbol appears
during operation and in the case of further falling voltage only when the
switch is actuated (see also Section 7.5 and Section 8.6).
Replace the batteries immediately with fresh ones when all
segments of the battery symbol are extinguished, to avoid
endangeringpersonsbyfalsemeasurements.
5.1.16 W ith fresh batteries the BENNING IT 100 can make about:
- 6000 insulation resistance measurements (250 V) or
- 5000 insulation resistance measurements (500 V) or
- 3w500 insulation resistance measurements (1000 V)
(according to EN 61557-2), or
- 4000 low resistance measurements (according to EN 61557-4).

6. Environmentalconditions
- T he BENNING IT 100 is intended for making measurements in dry environ-
ments.
- Maximum barometric elevation for making measurements: 2000 m.
- O vervoltage category IEC 60664/ IEC 61010, 600 V category III, 1000 V
category II
- Contamination degree 2
- Protective system IP 40 (EN 60529)
I P 40 means: Protection against access to dangerous parts and protection
against solid impurities of a diameter > 1 mm, (4 - first index). No protection
against water, (0 - second index).
- E lectromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Interference immunity and emitted
interference conforming to EN 61326-1
- O perating temperature and relative humidity:
For operating temperature from 0 °C to 31 °C: relative humidity less than 95 %
F or operating temperature from 31 °C to 40 °C: relative humidity less than 75 %
F or operating temperature from 40 °C to 50 °C: relative humidity less than 45 %
- S torage temperature: The BENNING IT 100 can be stored at any tempera-
ture in the range from - 25 °C to + 65 °C (relative humidity up to 90 %). The
batteries should be taken out of the instrument for storage.
7. Electricalspecifications
Note: The measuring accuracy is specified as the sum of
- a relative fraction of the measured value and
- a number of digits (counting steps of the least significant digit).
The specified measuring accuracy is valid for temperatures in the range from 10
°C to 30 °C and relative humidity less than 90 %.
