Safety
General safety and warning information
•Never cut, damage or modify the power pack cables or place things on it.
•Never touch the power pack with wet or moist hands.
•Only connect the power pack to power supplies for which it is suited (see
Chapter Technical data on page 19),
•Unplug the power cable from the outlet during a thunderstorm.
•Unplug the power cable if you detect smoke or there is an odor, or if the
power cable is damaged.
•Ensure sufficient grounding of your system. Inadequate grounding may
cause incorrect measurements.
Handling information for the MultiSystem 5070
•Never expose the instrument to excessive heat or moisture and observe
the technical data.
•Do not store the instrument in humid or dusty locations or at temperatures
below freezing point.
•Never submerge the instrument into water or other liquids. Never let liq-
uids come into the instrument.
•Never open the instrument.
•Do not use the instrument if it has been dripped or if the casing is
damaged.
•Avoid strong magnetic fields. Keep the instrument away from electric
motors or other devices which generate electromagnetic fields. Strong
magnetic fields may cause malfunctions and influence measurement
values.
•Prevent the formation of condensation. If condensation has formed, let the
instrument acclimate before you switch it on.

Information about the use of sensors and cables
•Protect the sensors from exceeding the allowed power range, mechanical
overload and incorrect pin assignment.
•Make sure you enter the sensor parameters correctly when using sensors
without ISDS (Intelligent Sensor Detection System).
•The measuring cables MK 01 and MKS may not be lengthened. Otherwise
the shielding will be interrupted.
•The data of an ISDS sensor are read in when the measuring instrument is
switched on. If sensors are reconnected the measuring instrument must
be switched off and on again to allow the sensor data to be adopted.
Information about handling batteries
•Always keep batteries away from heat sources and open fire.
•Never submerge batteries into water.
•Never disassemble, repair or modify the batteries.
•Never short-circuit the contacts of batteries.
•Use only batteries that are installed or delivered by HYDROTECHNIK.
•Only charge the battery while it is mounted in the instrument.
•Dispose of used batteries as hazardous waste. Cover the contacts with
insulation tape.
Disposal information
Do not dispose of this product with your household waste.

Intended use
The measuring instrument MultiSystem 5070 is a mobile, hand-held instru-
ment for the recording, storage and evaluation of measuring data, collected by
sensors connected to the device.
You can connect a large variety of different sensors to the instrument, but they
have to meet the requirements defined in the section Technical data. Any oth-
er use of the measuring instrument is considered improper. If you have any
question or want to use the measuring instrument for a different purpose,
please do not hesitate to contact our service staff. We will be happy to assist
you with any possibly necessary configurations.
Warranty
In accordance with our warranty conditions, we guarantee the condition with-
out defects for this measuring instrument for a duration of six months. Wearing
parts and storage batteries are excluded from this warranty. The warranty be-
comes void if repair work or interventions are executed by unauthorized
persons.
Within the warranty period we will repair damage or defects that are caused
by a manufacturing fault. We only accept warranty claims if they are reported
to us immediately after their discovery, but no later than six months after deliv-
ery. The warranty benefit is by our choice through free repair of defective parts
or replacement with sound parts.
Please send the instruments for which you have made a warranty claim post-
age-paid and with a copy of the invoice or the delivery slip to
HYDROTECHNIK customer service. You can find the address at the end of

Properties of the MultiSystem 5070
The MultiSystem 5070 is a practice-oriented, user-friendly hand-held meas-
uring instrument assisting the user with daily measuring functions. When using
sensors with ISDS (intelligent sensor detection), the MultiSystem 5070 auto-
matically identifies the connected sensors during switch-on and adopts all
parameters: Measurement range, physical measurement variables, unit of
measurement, signal output and characteristic curve (linearisation). You can
also connect sensors without ISDS designation. The entry of the sensor pa-
rameters is then done in clear operation menus.
You can connect up to eight sensors and store all measured values. Calcula-
tions from the measuring values as difference, sum and performance, as well
as the 1st derivation (e.g. speed from path) are available as additional special
channels for display and storage. The buffering of extreme values of the min-
imum and maximum measurands is always active and can be displayed by the
corresponding key selection.
All measurements can be conveniently transferred to a PC using a USB cable.
The software HYDROcom is delivered for free with the instrument and offers
comprehensive support with functions for the evaluation, presentation and
printing of the measured values.
System requirements for your PC:
•Windows 7 / 8 (driver required)
