2 Introduction
Read the operation manual carefully before using the equipment, and keep for futureIMPORTANT:
reference.
2.1 Intended use
DANGER
•The 9250 instrumentation amplifier must not be used in hazardous areas.
•The 9250 instrumentation amplifier is not intended as a substitute for safety
devices and protective equipment. Use safety devices and protective equipment.
•The 9250 instrumentation amplifier is not suitable for medical applications or where
people are at risk.
•Do not connect voltages that are higher than those permitted in the specification.
•Not suitable for safety-critical applications.
The 9250 instrumentation amplifier covers numerous areas of use. Designed for use with a variety of
analog sensors, the 9250 instrumentation amplifier can capture a huge range of output signals for
conditioning in fixed systems.
