XW Warning
To avoid possible electrical shock or personal injury,
follow these guidelines:
•
Disconnect all patient connections before connecting
the device to be tested to the analyzer. Continued
connection may jeopardize patient safety by possible
application of measurement currents.
•
Maintain care when making connections. Isolation test
utilizes 120 or 240 V ac applied to patient leads or to
external connections that are accessible to the tester.
Although the voltage is current limited by 120 k
Ω
resistor per AAMI test procedure and is safe for
healthy intact skin contact, it can be felt and can result
in a startle reaction.
• Ensure the mains installation current rating is
adequate for the device under test. If the device under
test requires 20 A, the analyzer must be powered by a
20 A service to avoid overloading the mains
installation
.
W Caution
To avoid possible damage to the Analyzer, follow these
guidelines:
•
Perform the dual lead leakage test only with an
optional black test lead with the clamp with the red
insulation (Fluke Biomedical part numbers 2393448 or
2231563) in the jack labeled DUAL. Using a black test
lead with the clamp with the black insulation in the
DUAL jack may result in a blown internal fuse and false
readings of 000 to 002
μ
A, requiring the unit to be
returned for servicing.
Note
For point to point measurements, optional accessory cables must be
purchased.
