The manufacturer offers the customer a 24-month functional warranty on the
instrument for faulty workmanship or parts from date of dispatch from the
distributor. In all cases, this warranty is valid for 36 months from the date of
production. This warranty is on a return to factory basis.
The manufacturer does not accept liability for any damage caused by instrument
malfunction. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for the suitability of the
instrument to the application for which it was purchased.
Failure to install, set up or operate the instrument according to the instructions
herein will void the warranty.
Only a duly authorized representative of the manufacturer may open your
instrument. The unit should only be opened in a fully anti-static environment.
Failure to do so may damage the electronic components and will void the warranty.
The greatest care has been taken to manufacture and calibrate your instrument.
However, these instructions do not cover all possible contingencies that may arise
during installation, operation or maintenance, and all details and variations of this
equipment are not covered by these instructions.
For additional information regarding installation, operation or maintenance of this
instrument, contact the manufacturer or your local representative or distributor.
WARNING
Read the instructions in this manual before performing installation and take
note of the following precautions:
Ensure that all incoming AC power and other power sources are
turned OFF before performing any work on the instrument. Protect
the measurement AC Inputs voltage (V1, V2, V3) with 2A external
overcurrent protection device and the power supply source inputs
with 5A external overcurrent protection device, located close to the
equipment.
Before connecting the instrument to the power source, check the
labels on the back of the instrument to ensure that your instrument
is equipped with the appropriate power supply voltage, input
voltages and currents. Failure to do so may result in serious or even
fatal injury and/or equipment damage.
Under no c ircu mstanc es should the instrum ent be connected to
a power source if it is damaged.
To prevent potential fire or shock hazard, do not expose the
instrument to rain or moisture.
The secondary of an external current transformer must never be
allowed to be open circuit when the primary is energized. An open
circuit can cause high voltages, possibly resulting in equipment
damage, fire and even serious or fatal injury. Ensure that the current
transformer wiring is secured using an external strain relief to
reduce mechanical strain on the screw terminals, if necessary.
Only qualified personnel familiar with the instrument and its
associated electrical equipment must perform setup procedures.
Do not open the instrument under any circumstances when it is
connected to a pow er source.
2PowerSmart+ Power Quality Meter
Do not use the instrument for primary protection functions where
failure of the device can cause fire, injury or death. The instrument
can only be used for secondary protection if needed.
Read this manual thoroughly before connecting the device to the
current carrying circuits. During operation of the device, hazardous
voltages are present on input terminals. Failure to observe
precautions can result in serious or even fatal injury or damage to
equipment.
