Model UT601: OPERATING MANUAL
Overview
This Operating Manual covers information on safety and
cautions. Please read the relevant information carefully
and observe all the Warnings and Notes strictly.
Digital Capacitance Meter Model UT601 (hereafter referred
to as “the Meter”) is a 3 1/2 digits with steady operations,
fashionable design and highly reliable hand-held measuring
instrument. The Meter can also measure resistance,
transistor, diode and continuity buzzer.
The Meter has a broad capacitance measurement range
and precise accuracy. It can be used in measuring the
circuit designed capacitance of cable, switch and PCB
layout.

Safety Information
This Meter complies with the standards EMC EN61326.
Use the Meter only as specified in this operating manual,
otherwise the protection provided by the Meter may be
impaired.
In this manual, a Warning identifies conditions and actions
that pose hazards to the user, or may damage the Meter
or the equipment under test.
A Note identifies the information that user should pay
attention on.
International electrical symbols used on the Meter and in
this Operating Manual are explained on page 8.

Model UT601: OPERATING MANUAL
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury,
and to avoid possible damage to the Meter or to the
equipment under test, adhere to the following rules:
Warning
Before using the Meter inspect the case. Do not use
the Meter if it is damaged or the case (or part of the
case) is removed. Look for cracks or missing plastic.
Pay attention to the insulation around the connectors.
Inspect the test clips for damaged insulation or
exposed metal. Check the test clips for continuity.
Replace damaged test clips with identical model
number or electrical specifications before using the
Meter.
Do not apply voltage to the Meter.
The rotary switch should be placed in the right
position and no any changeover of range shall be
made during measurement is conducted to prevent
damage of the Meter.
Do not apply more than 30Vrms between the
terminals and the grounding to avoid electric shock
and damage to the Meter.
Use the proper terminals, function, and range for
your measurements.
Do not use or store the Meter in an environment of
high temperature, humidity, explosive, inflammable
and strong magnetic field. The performance of the
Meter may deteriorate after dampened.
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all highvoltage capacitors before testing resistance,
continuity, capacitance or diodes.
Replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator
appears. With a low battery, the Meter might
produce false readings that can lead to electric shock
and personal injury.
Remove test clips from the Meter and turn the Meter
power off before opening the Meter case.

Model UT601: OPERATING MANUAL
When servicing the Meter, use only the same model
number or identical electrical specifications
replacement parts.
The internal circuit of the Meter shall not be altered
at will to avoid damage of the Meter and any accident.
Soft cloth and mild detergent should be used to
clean the surface of the Meter when servicing. No
abrasive and solvent should be used to prevent the
surface of the Meter from corrosion, damage and
accident.
The Meter is suitable for indoor use.
Turn the Meter power off when it is not in use and
take out the battery when not using for a long time.
Please constantly check the battery as it may leak
when it has been using for some time, replace the
battery as soon as leaking appears. A leaking battery
will damage the Meter.
