Before using the product the first time, verify that it
operates normally to ensure that the no damage occurred
during storage or shipping. If you find any damage, contact
your dealer or Hioki representative.
Testing monitor batteries installed in the unit may possibly be
weak. Replace batteries before extended measurement usage.
Before using the product, make sure that the insulation on the
cables is undamaged and that no bare conductors are improperly
exposed. Using the product in such conditions could cause an
electric shock, so contact your dealer or Hioki representative for
repair.

when referring to analog instruments.
f.s.
(maximum display or scale value, or length of scale)
Signifies the maximum display (scale) value or the length
of the scale (in cases where the scale consists of unequal
increments or where the maximum value cannot be
defined).
In general, this is the range value (the value written on
the range selector or equivalent) currently in use.

Signifies the smallest display unit on a digital measuring
instrument, i.e., the value displayed when the last digit on
the digital display is "1".
This product complies with CAT I safety requirements.
To ensure safe operation of measurement product, IEC
61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical
environments, categorized as CAT I to CAT IV, and called
measurement categories. These are defined as follows.
CAT I
Secondary electrical circuits connected to an AC
electrical outlet through a transformer or similar
device.
CAT II
CAT III
CAT IV
Primary electrical circuits in equipment connected
to an AC electrical outlet by a power cord (portable
tools, household appliances, etc.)
Primary electrical circuits of heavy equipment
(fixed installations) connected directly to the
distribution panel, and feeders from the distribution
panel to outlets.
The circuit from the service drop to the service
entrance, and to the power meter and primary
overcurrent protection device (distribution panel).
Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical
environments with greater momentary energy. So a
measurement device designed for CAT III environments can
endure greater momentary energy than a device designed for
CAT II. Using a measurement product in an environment
designated with a higher-numbered category than that for
which the product is rated could result in a severe accident,
and must be carefully avoided.
Never use a CAT I measuring product in CAT II, III, or IV
environments. The measurement categories comply with the
Overvoltage Categories of the IEC60664 Standards.
In order to ensure safe operation and to obtain maximum
performance from the unit, observe the cautions listed
below.

DANGE
WARNING
to measure voltage in excess of the maximum input
could destroy the product and result in personal injure
or death.
To avoid electric shock, do not allow the product to get
wet, and do not use it when your hands are wet.
To avoid electric shock, shut off the line power supply
before connecting the connection cable to the
terminals.
CAUTION
To avoid electric shock, before replacing the connection
cable, remove the all connection cable from the device to
be measured.
To avoid damaging connection cable (especially where the
leads connect to the probes), do not kink or pull on the
leads.
This product is designed for indoor use, and operates
reliably from 0
to 40.
Do not store or use the product where it could be exposed
to direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, or
condensation. Under such conditions, the product may be
damaged and insulation may deteriorate so that it no longer
meets specifications.
This product is not designed to be entirely water- or dustproof. To avoid damage, do not use it in a wet or dusty
environment.

3645-20 VOLTAGE LOGGER enables measurement with
intervals and recording up to
This logger is designed with four measurement ranges
covering
the outputs of various types of sensors, and the voltages of
diverse devices and power supplies. The 3645-20 comes
equipped with a Preheat function. When a synchronized
Preheat signal is used in the measurement, the logger allows
control of the power supply to various types of sensors.
Data is saved in nonvolatile memory when batteries are
weak or removed for replacement.
Interval and maximum recording time (when power save
function is valid) are as follows.
Maximum recording time is limited by battery charge
condition. Maximum recordable data is 32000 per unit.
In the recording mode, the unit conducts measurement once
the preset recording interval has elapsed. It then records
the measurement value and updates the LCD indication.
When the power-save function is disabled, or when the
power-save function is active and any button is pressed to
restart the LCD indicator, the unit conducts measurement
every second and updates the LCD indication only, until
the preset recording interval elapses.

WARNING
foreign materials such as a metal object into the unit to
avoid damage to the unit.
Before using the product after replacing the batteries,
replace the cover and screw.
Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of
batteries. Also, be careful to observe battery polarity
during installation. Otherwise, poor performance or
damage from battery leakage could result.
Handle and dispose of batteries in accordance with
local regulations.
CAUTION
When exchanging the batteries, the circuit may sometimes
short circuit due to static electricity. As far as possible, do not
touch the base board with bare hands.
Installing new batteries ensures about 1 year of recording.

The Preheat signal controls the sensor power on/off.
Connect the 3645-20 to a sensor, power supply, and relay
in the manner illustrated below.

Confirm that the power supply to be used does not exceed
the ratings (30 V, 20 mA max.) of the Preheat signal.
When selecting a relay, note its ratings (voltages and
currents to be imposed on the coil and the relay contacts)
and the polarity of the coil.
When connecting a relay, be aware that the circuit may be
destroyed by a counter-electromotive force generated when
the relay is turned on/off. To prevent such destruction of
the circuit, always insert a protective diode in the manner
illustrated above.
