Mains Isolated: is for measurements performed on circuits not directly

connected to a mains supply.

Pollution - addition of foreign matter, solid, liquid, or gaseous (ionized gases) that

 4 Introduction
4.1 Overview
The Testec TT-SX 900x Series High-Voltage Differential probes allow conventional
earth-grounded oscilloscopes to be used for floating signal measurements - up to
700 V differential or common mode voltage (TT-SX 9001) and up to 1400 V
differential or common mode voltage (TT-SX 9002).

Each model offers user selectable attenuation setting of 10x & 100x (TT-SX 9001)
and 20x & 200x (TT-SX 9002), making both probes highly versatile and usable for
a broad range of applications including power supply measurements and motor
controls.

Both probes are compatible with any oscilloscope with a 1 MΩ BNC female input
and feature up to 30 MHz of bandwidth. The probes can be powered by any
oscilloscope USB port, internal batteries (4 AA batteries, not included in the scope
of delivery), or mains power adapter.

8 Cleaning
Clean only the exterior probe body and cables. Use a soft cotton cloth light
moistened with a mild solution of detergent and water. Do not allow any portion
of the probe to be submerged at any time.

WARNUNG Den Tastkopf gründlich abtrocknen und gut trocknen lassen,

bevor Sie versuchen, Spannungsmessungen durchzuführen.

WARNING Dry the probe thoroughly before attempting to make voltage

measurements.

AVERTISSEMENT Séchez soigneusement la sonde avant d’essayer d’effectuer

des mesures de tension.

VORSICHT Setzen Sie den Tastkopf und die Kabel keinen Lösungsmitteln
oder Lösungsmitteldämpfen aus. Das könnte den Tastkopf
oder die Kabel beschädigen.

CAUTION Do not subject the probe to solvents or solvent fumes as these

can cause deterioration of the probe body and cables.

MISE EN GARDE Ne soumettez pas la sonde à des solvants ou à des vapeurs

de solvants car ceux-ci peuvent détériorer le corps de la sonde
et les câbles.
