NOTICE
To prevent system faults take appropriate precautions to avoid PC viruses and similar.
Use only transducers calibrated with actual instrument. To identify a valid calibration, the serial number for
the instrument will be marked on the transducer.
Although the instrument fulfils the relevant EMC requirements precautions should be taken to avoid
unnecessary exposure to electromagnetic fields, e.g. from mobile phones etc. If the device is used adjacent
to other equipment it must be observed that no mutual disturbance appears.Please also refer to EMC
concideration in the appendix.
Within the European Union it is illegal to dispose electric and electronic waste as unsorted
municipal waste. Electric and electronic waste may contain hazardous substances and therefore
has to be collected separately. Such products will be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin
shown below. The cooperation of the user is important in order to ensure a high level of reuse and
recycling of electric and electronic waste. Failing to recycle such waste products in an appropriate
way may endanger the environment and consequently the health of human beings.
To prevent system faults take appropriate precautions to avoid PC viruses and similar.
Remove the batteries in the bottom if the instruments will not be used for some time.
