Environmental Conditions; Electrical Specifications - Benning IT 100 Notice D'emploi

if only one segment or none is displayed. The battery symbol appears
during operation and in the case of further falling voltage only when the
switch is actuated (see also Section 7.5 and Section 8.6).
Replace the batteries immediately with fresh ones when all

segments of the battery symbol are extinguished, to avoid
endangering persons by false measurements.
5.1.16 With fresh batteries the BENNING IT 100 can make about:
- 6000 insulation resistance measurements (250 V) or
- 5000 insulation resistance measurements (500 V) or
- 3500 insulation resistance measurements (1000 V)
(according to EN 61557-2), or
- 4000 low resistance measurements (according to EN 61557-4).
5.1.17 Dimensions of the instrument (L x W x H) = 235 x 100 x 55 mm

Electrical specifications

Note: The measuring accuracy is specified as the sum of
- a relative fraction of the measured value and
- a number of digits (counting steps of the least significant digit).
The specified measuring accuracy is valid for temperatures in the range from 10
°C to 30 °C and relative humidity less than 90 %.
