skills and knowledge of safety precautions.
Carefully read through the following safety instructions before putting the Analyzer into operation. Observe all the
precautions and warnings provided in this Manual for all the phases of operation, service, and repair of the
Analyzer.
View900 complies with INSTALLATION CATEGORY II as well as POLLUTION DEGREE 2 in IEC61010–1.
View900 is MEASUREMENT CATEGORY I (CAT I). Do not use for CAT II, III, or IV.
View900 is tested in stand-alone conditions or in combination with the accessories supplied by INNO
INSTRUMENTS CO., LTD. against the requirement of the standards described in the Declaration of Conformity. If it
is used as a system component, compliance of related regulations and safety requirements are to be confirmed by
the system builder.
Never operate the Analyzer in an environment containing inflammable gasses or fumes.
Operators must not remove the cover or part of the housing. The Analyzer must not be repaired by the operator.
Component replacement or internal adjustment must be performed only by qualified maintenance personnel.
Never operate the Analyzer if the power cable is damaged.
Never connect the test terminals to mains.
Never operate the Analy ㄴㄴ zer in the environment containing inflammable gasses or fumes.
Operators must not remove the cover or part of the housing. The Analyzer must not be repaired by the operator.
Component replacement or internal adjustment must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel only.
Electrostatic discharge can damage the Analyzer when connected or disconnected from the DUT. Static charge can
build up on your body and damage the sensitive circuits of internal components of both the Analyzer and the DUT.
To avoid damage from electric discharge, observe the following:
-Always use a desktop anti-static mat under the DUT.
-Always wear a grounding wrist strap connected to the desktop anti-static mat via daisy-chained 1 MΩ
resistor.
-Before operating, connect clamp on the body of the Analyzer to the body of the DUT.
Observe all general safety precautions related to the equipment operation powered by mains.
