SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read this owner’s manual carefully before you use your energy meter
and please make sure that this manual either remains with the device or is
kept within close range! Although this device was subjected to extensive
material, function and quality testing before it left our premises, this does
not mean that it does not present a hazard to the user or other persons if not
used properly or for purposes other than those for which it was intended!
Please note the following instructions.
• The guarantee expires with immediate effect in case of damage
which occurs a result of non-observance of these instructions. We
do not accept liability for any damages resulting there from!
• We do not accept liability for any damage caused to persons or prop-
erty when caused as a result of improper use or non-compliance
with these safety instructions! The guarantee expires with imme-
diate effect in all such cases. No changes or modifications may be
carried out on the device.
• Please make sure that the device is used properly. Be sure to follow
the instructions as described in this manual.
• The device may not be taken apart.
• Care must be taken to ensure that the protective earth conductor
is not interrupted as an interrupted protective earth conductor can
lead to fatal injury.
• Connect the measuring instrument to the respective consumer
exclusively via the power cord. To avoid damage due to leverage
effects, never plug the consumer directly into the measuring instru-
ment, as it may be too heavy!
• Measuring devices are not toys. Keep away from children!
• Only connect to approved 230 V AC / 50 Hz (10/16 A) safety sock-
ets with protective earth conductor (VDE) (Association of German
Electricians).
• The connected load may not exceed 3680 W (16 A).
• The recommended operating temperature for this device is between
+5 and +40 °C. Higher temperatures, especially those encountered
when measuring larger consumers, can lead to overheating and re-
sult in irreparable damage to the device.
• Avoid using in hostile conditions where there are inflammable gases,
fumes or dust.
• For reasons of safety, do not allow anyone to use the device when
it is wet or in a damp environment. Make sure that the device is
disconnected from the mains before cleaning or maintenance work
is carried out.
• Accident prevention regulations in compliance with the standards as
laid down by the Association of Industrial and Commercial Workers
for Electrical Facilities and Equipment are to be observed at all times.

EN Operating manual – Energy cost measuring instrument B - 2
• It must be ensured that trained and instructed personnel monitor and
ensure the correct use of the device when used in schools, training
facilities, hobby and self-help workshops.
• Do not leave any packing material lying around. All packaging mate-
rial must be disposed of immediately as it can pose a serious health
hazard to children.
• If there is evidence which suggests that the device cannot be used safely,
then the device must be switched off immediately and measures must
be taken to ensure that the device is not used again accidentally. It can
be assumed that the device cannot be used safely if the device no longer
works or displays visible signs that damage has occurred during storage
in unfavourable conditions or over a longer period or when it appears to
have been it subjected to stress and strain during transport.
• Do not stick any pins, pieces of metal or any other objects into the device.
INTENDED USE
The energy meter has a range of 2 to max. 3680 W. Accurate meas-
urements are not possible below or above these thresholds. Measure-
ments carried out outside these limits can lead to an overload and
cause irreparable damage to the device.
The BX11/BX11F has been designed and developed for the monitoring and
measuringofelectricalconsumers.Althoughitisabletodeliverhighlyaccu-
rateinformation,itisnotofficiallyregistered as ameansforthe settlement
of electricity costs between power supply companies and consumers.
- The BX11/BX11F is only approved for use with 230 V AC.
- Do only connect electrical consumers with a 230 V AC 50/60 Hz
power supply.
- The max. power input of all the connected consumers must not exceed
3680 watts (3000 watts type E max. power 16 A).
- The energy meter may only be used in closed rooms and in dry
environments. Outdoor use is strictly prohibited!
- Be sure to observe the information on the type plate of the connected
load at all times.
- For reasons of safety, only ever plug the BX11/BX11F directly into
a suitable mains power socket and never use an extension cable to
connect it to the power supply!
- If the energy meter is used for any purpose other than the purpose
for which it was originally intended, then this will invariably result
in damage to the product. Such misuse can furthermore present a
serious threat of danger, e. g. a short circuit, fire, electric shock.
The entire product may not be changed or modified in any way. The
safety instructions are to be followed and must be complied with
at all times.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TAKING INTO USE
Place three AAA R03/1. 5V into your energy meter before you connect
it to an electrical consumer. In order to do so, first loosen the screw to
the battery compartment and then remove the lid. Make sure that the
battery poles are properly aligned. Be sure to screw the lid securely
into place again before actually taking your energy meter into use!
The display is now activated and can be configured accordingly.
Please remember that these settings will be deleted when the
batteries are exhausted or when the batteries have been remo-
ved from the battery compartment when not connected to the
mains. To insert/replace the batteries, the device must not be
connected to the power supply! There is a risk of electric shock!
Degrees of contamination
The following are the degrees of contamination as specified according
to IEC 664:
- Degree of contamination 1
No or only dry non-conductive contamination.
- Degree of contamination 2
Dry, non-conductive contamination only. Occasional temporary con-
ductivity through dewing must be reckoned with.
- Degree of contamination 3
Conductive contamination or dry, non-conductive contamination
which can become conductive can occur because of expected dewing.
- Degree of contamination 4
Contamination leads to consistent contamination because of conduc-
tive dust, rain or snow.

Power supply/Settings
The symbol which indicates that the battery power is low should disap-
pear after the batteries have been inserted. The batteries are powerful
enough to operate the LCD display and allow time and tariff settings
to be carried out. The condensers are charged as soon as the energy
is connected to a mains supply. The device then runs on alternating
current instead of batteries. Change the batteries as soon as the “Low
Bat” symbol appears on the display. See below to find more informa-
tion on how to carry out time and tariff settings.
A.Time and day settings
1. Press the “SET“ key and hold for 3 seconds to access the system
menu. Press again to set the day of the week.
2. Press the “s”-key to change the value which is currently blinking on
the display from MON to SON.
3. Press the “SET” key to set the time.
4. Press the “s”-key to change the value which is currently blinking on
the display. The number shown increases when the key is held.
5.Press the “SET” key again to save the setting. Repeat the procedure
if you wish to change any of the settings.
6.When you have entered the time, press the “s”-key again to enter
the individual tariffs.
B.How to carry out settings for energy tariffs and times
1. Press the “SET” key to get to “Tin” (time in) in order to enter the time
