in the user’s manual to identify those instructions. In the manual,
the symbol is used in conjunction with the word “WARNING” or
“CAUTION.”
WARNING Describes precautions that should be observed to prevent serious
injury or death to the user.
CAUTION Describes precautions that should be observed to prevent minor
or moderate injury, or damage to the instrument.
Note Provides important information for the proper operation of the
instrument.
Safety Precautions
This product is designed to be used by a person with specialized knowledge. To
safely operate this product and to fully utilize its functionality, strictly observe the
following cautions.
This product complies with the requirements stated in measurement categories
II dened in IEC 61010-031.
If this probe is operated in a manner not specied in this manual, this may
cause the protection capability of this product to lessen. YOKOGAWA shall not
be held responsible for defects arising from negligence of such warning and
caution, and also shall not guarantee the product in such case. Before using
this probe, thoroughly read the instruction manual for measuring instrument to
fully understand the specications and handling precautions for safe and correct
operation.
WARNING
• Purpose of the product
The product is used in combination with an oscilloscope to
observe and measure electrical signals. Do not use for any other
purpose.
• Grounding of the measuring instrument
The protective grounding terminal of the oscilloscope must be
connected to ground.
• Grounding of the probe
Make sure to connect the ground lead of the probe to the
grounding potential.
• Be careful of electric shock
Never use the probe with wet hands or when the probe itself
is wet. Doing so may cause electric shock. Be careful of
electric shock when you connect the probe to the device under
measurement. Do not remove the probe from the oscilloscope
while connected to the device under measurement.

IM701944-01E
• Do not operate in wet or damp conditions
To prevent electric shock, do not operate the probe in wet or
damp conditions.
• Avoid exposed circuitry
To prevent electric shock, remove metal and jewelry such
as watches and rings. Do not touch exposed connections or
components when power is present on the device.
• Do not operate in explosive atmosphere
To prevent injury or re hazard, do not operate the probe in an
atmosphere of ammable or explosive gases or vapors.
• Do not operate with suspected failures
Stop using the probe If you suspect that the probe is damaged.
Consult your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer.
• Do not operate with a damaged signal cable
If the signal cable is torn and the inner metal is exposed or if
a color di󰀨erent from the outer sheath appears, stop using the
cable.
• Do not disassemble or modify
Do not disassemble or modify the product. YOKOGAWA assumes
no liability if you disassemble or modify the product.
• Observe the maximum input voltage
Do not apply a voltage exceeding the maximum input voltage to
the probe. When the oscilloscope’s input coupling is AC, a DC
voltage is applied to the oscilloscope’s input at the same electric
potential as the probe’s input. Make sure not to exceed the
oscilloscope’s maximum input voltage.

AVERTISSEMENT
• But du produit
Le produit est utilisé en association avec un oscilloscope pour
observer et mesurer des signaux électriques. Ne l’utilisez pas à
d’autres ns.
• Mise à la terre de l’instrument de mesure
La borne de terre de protection de l’oscilloscope doit être
connectée à la terre.
• Mise à la terre de la sonde
Assurez-vous de connecter le l de terre ou l’accessoire
équivalent de la sonde au potentiel de mise à la terre.
• Faites attention au choc électrique
N’utilisez jamais la sonde les mains mouillées ou lorsque la
sonde elle-même est mouillée. Cela pourrait provoquer un choc
électrique. Faites attention au choc électrique lorsque vous
connectez la sonde à l’appareil à mesurer. Ne retirez pas la
sonde de l’oscilloscope lorsqu’il est connecté à l’appareil en cours
de mesure.
• N’opérez pas dans des conditions mouillées ou humides
Pour éviter un choc électrique, ne faites pas fonctionner la sonde
dans des conditions mouillées ou humides.

4IM701944-01E
• Évitez les circuits exposés
Pour éviter un choc électrique, retirez le métal et les bijoux tels
que les montres et les bagues. Ne touchez pas les connexions ou
composants exposés en présence de courant sur l’appareil.
• N’opérez pas dans une atmosphère explosive
Pour éviter les blessures et les risques d’incendie, n’utilisez pas la
sonde dans une atmosphère de gaz ou des vapeurs inammables
ou explosifs.
• N’opérez pas en cas de défaillances suspectées
Arrêtez d’utiliser la sonde si vous pensez qu’elle est
endommagée. Consultez votre revendeur YOKOGAWA le plus
proche.
• N’opérez pas avec le câble de signal endommagé
Si le câble de signal est coupé et que le métal interne est exposé
ou si une couleur di󰀨érente de la gaine extérieure apparaît,
arrêtez d’utiliser le câble.
• Nedémontezoumodiezpas
Ne démontez ou modiez pas le produit. YOKOGAWA n’assume
aucune responsabilité si vous démontez ou modiez le produit.
• Respectez la tension d’entrée maximale
N’appliquez pas une tension supérieure à la tension d’entrée
maximale sur la sonde. Lorsque le couplage d’entrée de
l’oscilloscope est AC, une tension DC est appliquée à l’entrée
de l’oscilloscope au même potentiel électrique que l’entrée de
la sonde. Assurez-vous de ne pas dépasser la tension d’entrée
maximale de l’oscilloscope.

Overview
Model 701944 and 701945 are high voltage probes with attenuation ratio of
100:1. The very sharp probe tip is spring loaded and minimizes the pressure
to the device under measurement. It also prevents the probe from slipping on
the board surface. In particular, the spring mechanism is useful when using the
probe with it inclined. In addition, various accessories are available.
