SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This chapter contains important safety
instructions that you must follow during
operation and storage. Read the following before
any operation to ensure your safety and to keep
the instrument in the best possible condition.
Safety Symbols
These safety symbols may appear in this manual or on the
instrument.
WARNING
Warning: Identifies conditions or practices that
could result in injury or loss of life.
CAUTION
Caution: Identifies conditions or practices that
could result in damage to the T3PS or to other
properties.
DANGER High Voltage

Do not dispose electronic equipment as unsorted
municipal waste. Please use a separate collection
facility or contact the supplier from which this
instrument was purchased.
Safety Guidelines
General
Guideline
CAUTION
Do not place any heavy object on the T3PS.
Avoid severe impact or rough handling that
leads to damaging the T3PS.
Do not discharge static electricity to the T3PS.
Use only mating connectors, not bare wires, for
the terminals.
Do not disassemble the T3PS unless you are
qualified.
Power Supply
CAUTION
WARNING
AC Input Voltage:
100Vac/120Vac/220Vac/240Vac, 50Hz/60Hz,
single phase
Frequency: 47Hz to 63Hz
Before connecting the power plug to an AC line
outlet, make sure the voltage selector switches
of the bottom panel in the correct position.
Disconnect power cord and test leads before
replacing fuse.
The fuse specification is as following:
FUSE
LINE
250V
T3.15A
110V~
120V~
250V
T1.6A
220V~
240V~
To avoid electrical shock connect the protective
grounding conductor of the AC power cord to
an earth ground.

Cleaning the
T3PS
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning.
Use a soft cloth dampened in a solution of mild
detergent and water. Do not spray any liquid.
Do not use chemicals containing harsh material
such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and acetone.
Operation
Environment
Location: Indoor, no direct sunlight, dust free,
almost non-conductive pollution (Note below)
Relative Humidity: 20%~ 80%(no condensation)
Altitude: < 2000m
Temperature: 0°C to 40°C
(Pollution Degree) EN61010-1:2010 specifies the pollution degrees
and their requirements as follows. The T3PS falls under degree 2.
Pollution refers to “addition of foreign matter, solid, liquid, or
gaseous (ionized gases), that may produce a reduction of dielectric
strength or surface resistivity”.
Pollution degree 1: No pollution or only dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.
Pollution degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused
by condensation must be expected.
Pollution degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-
conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to
condensation which is expected. In such conditions, equipment
is normally protected against exposure to direct sunlight,
precipitation, and full wind pressure, but neither temperature
nor humidity is controlled.
Storage
environment
Location: Indoor
Temperature: -20°C to 70°C
Relative Humidity: 20 to 85%(no condensation)
Disposal
Do not dispose this instrument as unsorted
municipal waste. Please use a separate collection
facility or contact the supplier from which this
instrument was purchased. Please make sure
discarded electrical waste is properly recycled to
reduce environmental impact.
