Safety Instructions
1 Safety and Regulatory Information
The product documentation helps you use the product safely and efficiently. Follow the instructions provided here and in the Chapter 1.1, "Safety Instructions",
on page 5.
Intended use
Combined with a supported R&S NRT‑Zxx directional power sensor, the R&S
NRT2 base unit is intended for power and reflection measurements in development and for monitoring and maintenance purposes. The supported
R&S NRT‑Zxx directional power sensors are listed in the data sheet. Observe the
operating conditions and performance limits stated in the data sheet.
Target audience
The target audience is developers and technicians. The required skills and experience in power and reflection measurements depend on the used operating concept. While manual operation is suitable for beginners, remote control requires
expertise in power and reflection measurements.
Main applications are continuous monitoring of transmitter systems and power
measurements with digital modulation. A profound knowledge of the intended
application and test setup is recommended.
Where do I find safety information?
Safety information is part of the product documentation. It warns you of potential
dangers and gives instructions on how to prevent personal injury or damage
caused by dangerous situations. Safety information is provided as follows:
●
In Chapter 1.1, "Safety Instructions", on page 5. The same information is
provided in many languages as printed "Safety Instructions". The printed
"Safety Instructions" are delivered with the product.
●

stability. The feet can collapse if they are not folded out completely or if the product is moved without lifting it. The foldable feet are designed to carry the weight of
the product, but not an extra load.
If stacking is possible, keep in mind that a stack of products can fall over and
cause injury.
If you mount products in a rack, ensure that the rack has sufficient load capacity
and stability. Observe the specifications of the rack manufacturer. Always install
the products from the bottom shelf to the top shelf so that the rack stands
securely. Secure the product so that it cannot fall off the rack.
Connecting to power
The product is an overvoltage category II product. Connect the product to a fixed
installation used to supply energy-consuming equipment such as household
appliances and similar loads. Keep in mind that electrically powered products
have risks, such as electric shock, fire, personal injury or even death.
