DVM901
V. 02 –29/01/2020 7 ©Velleman nv
The existing categories according EN 61010-1 are:
CAT
I
A CAT I-rated meter is suitable for measurements on protected
electronic circuits that are not directly connected to mains power,
e.g. electronics circuits, control signals…
CAT
II
A CAT II-rated meter is suitable for measurements in CAT I-
environments and mono-phase appliances that are connected to the
mains by means of a plug and circuits in a normal domestic
environment, provided that the circuit is at least 10 m apart from a
CAT III- or 20 m apart from a CAT IV-environment. E.g. household
appliances, portable tools…
CAT
III
A CAT III-rated meter is suitable for measurements in CAT I- and
CAT II-environments, as well as for measurements on (fixed) mono-
or poly-phased appliances which are at least 10 m apart from of a
CAT IV-environment, and for measurements in or on distribution
level equipment (fuse boxes, lighting circuits, electric ovens).
CAT
IV
A CAT IV-rated meter is suitable for measuring in CAT I-, CAT II-
and CAT III-environments as well as on the primary supply level.
Note that for all measurements on equipment for which the supply
cables run outdoors (either overhead or underground) a CAT IV
meter must be used.
Warning:
This device was designed in accordance with EN 61010-1 installation
category CAT II 700 V and CAT IV 600 V. This implies that certain
restrictions in use apply that are related to voltages and voltage peaks
which can occur within the environment of use. Refer to the table above.
This device is only suitable for measurements up to 700 V in
CAT II and up to 600 V in CAT IV
8. Pollution Degree
IEC 61010-1 specifies different types of pollution environments, for which
different protective measures are necessary to ensure safety. Harsher
environments require more protection, and the protection against the
pollution which is to be found in a certain environment depends mainly on
the insulation and the enclosure properties. The pollution degree rating of
the DVM indicates in which environment the device may be used.
Pollution
degree 1
No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. The
pollution has no influence. (only to be found in hermetically
sealed enclosures)

DVM901
V. 02 –29/01/2020 8 ©Velleman nv
Pollution
degree 2
Only nonconductive pollution occurs. Occasionally,
temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be
expected. (home and office environments fall under this
category)
Pollution
degree 3
Conductive pollution occurs, or dry nonconductive pollution
occurs that becomes conductive due to condensation that is
to be expected.
(industrial environments and environments exposed to
outside air - but not in contact with precipitation)
Pollution
degree 4
The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused by
conductive dust or by rain or snow. (exposed outdoor
environments and environments where high humidity levels
or high concentrations of fine particles occur)
Warning: This device was designed in accordance with EN 61010-1
pollution degree 2. This implies that certain restrictions in use apply that
are related to pollution which can occur within the environment of use. Refer
to the table above.
This device is only suitable for measurements in Pollution
degree class 2 environments.

on non-contact voltage detection to determine the presence of voltage.
Detection operation may be subject to socket design, insulation
thickness and different type and other factors.
2. When the meter input terminals detect voltage, due to the influence of
present voltage, the voltage sensing indicator may also light.
3. Keep the appliance away from electrical noise sources during tests, i.e.
fluorescent and dimmable lights, motors, etc. These sources may
trigger NCV detection and invalidate the test.

11. Battery and Fuse Replacement
WARNING: To avoid electrical shock always disconnect the test
leads prior to opening the housing. To prevent fire hazards, only
use fuses with the same ratings as specified in this manual.
Remark: refer to the warning on the battery compartment
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the device.
Refer to an authorized dealer for service and/or spare parts.
Disconnect the test leads from the test points and remove the test
leads from the measuring terminals before replacing the batteries
or fuses.
•When" " is displayed, the battery should be replaced.
•Fuses rarely need replacement and blown fuses almost always result
from human error.
To replace the battery:
•Switch off the meter.
•Remove the screw at the back of the case and gently open the housing.
•Remove the old battery and insert a new one.
•Close the housing and fasten the screw.
Battery: 1 x 3.7 V, make sure to respect the polarity
Fuses: F0.5 A/1000 V, 6.75 x 33 mm, F15 A/1000 V, 6.75 x 33 mm
Make sure the meter is closed tight and put the protective edge back in
place before using the meter.

12. Troubleshooting
If the device acts abnormal while measuring, this means that the internal
fuse is defective.
Keep in mind that a low battery level could lead to incorrect measurements.
Replace the battery on a regular basis.
(Tip: the reduced luminosity of the backlight/LCD display indicates a low
battery level.)
