Power requirements
This instrument is intended to be power e d by the WFM200BA
Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery pack or the 18 V DC AC adapter.
AC power
When the instrument operates from the external AC adapter, the
following power requirements apply:
A sing le-phase power source with one current-carrying conductor
at or near earth-ground (the neutral conductor).
The power source frequency must be 50 or 60 Hz, the operating
voltage range must be from 100 to 240 VAC, continuous. The
typical power draw is less than 15 W.
WARNING. To reduce risk of fire and shock, make sure the mains supply
voltage fluctuations do not exceed 10% of the operating voltage range.
Operating requirements
Systems with both current-carrying conductors live with respect
to gro und (such as phase-to-phase in multiphase systems) are not
recommended as power sources.
NOTE. Only the line conductor is fused for over-current protection. The
fuse is internal and not user replaceable. Do not attempt to replace the
fuse. If you suspe ct the fuse has blown, return the unit to an authorized
service center for repair.
Use the proper po wer cord with the AC adapter. (See page vii,
International power cords.)
NOTE. See the instrument Specifications and Performance Verification
Technical Reference for additional information on power and environmental
requirements.
RSA500A Series Installation and Safety Instructions17
Operating requirements
Battery power
This instrument can be powered by a Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery
pack. One WFM200BA battery pack is provided with the instrument. If
needed, you can purchase additional battery packs.
NOTE. For optimum performance, charge the battery pack completely
before using it for the first time or after prolonged storag e.
When installed, the battery pack will charge whenever the supplied AC
adapter is connected, whether the instrument is On, Off, or in Standby
mode. The charging rate is unaffected by instrument operation.
When using the WFM200BA battery pack to power the instrument, read
the following battery safety notices. See the WFM200BA RechargeableBattery Pack Instructions for information about how to properly operate
and maintain the battery pack.
CAUTION. To avoid damage to the battery pack, use only the instrument or
the optional WFM200BC battery charger to charge the battery pack. Do
not connect any other voltage source to the battery pack.
To avoid overheating of the battery pack during charging, do not exceed
the maximum ambient temperature of 40 °C. The battery pack will stop
charging if it gets too hot.
The temperature at which the battery pack stops charging varies depending
on the charging current and the battery heat dissipation characteristics.
This is particularly true when the instrument is being operated while the
battery pack is charging. The actual battery-charging temperature limit
may be lower than 40 °C.
Cleaning
Cleaning is not required for the safe operation of the instrument.
