Intended Use
The Pentype multimeter is a digital measuring device with a LCD.
The pen form allows the measured values to be read off while the
measurement can be carried out with both hands.
The auto-range multimeter possesses the following measuring features:
- Measurement of direct and alternating voltage up to a maxiumum
of 250 V
- Measurement of direct and alternating current up to a maxiumum
of 400 mA (only VC-86)
- It is also designed to measure resistance values of up to 40 MOhm
(VC-82 bis 20 MOhm).
- Continuity check (< 35 Ohm acoustic) and diode test.
The measured impedance can be reduced to suppress phantom
voltage values briefly (!) (only VC-86).
The measurement device may not be operated when it is open, i.e.
with an open battery compartment or when the battery compartment
cover is missing. Any measurement in moist rooms or outdoors or
under adverse ambient conditions is not permitted.
The following are unfavourable ambient conditions:
- Excessive dampness or humidity
- Dust or combustible gases, vapours or solvents
- Electrical storms or stormy conditions and strong electrostatic
fields, etc.
The pen-type multimeter may only be used in areas of the overvol-
tage category CATII to 250 V and CATIII to 250 V.
Use other than that described above can lead to damage to the pro-
duct and may involve additional risks such as, for example, short
circuits, fire, electrical shocks etc.
No part of the product may be modified or converted!
The safety instructions should be observed at all times!
