Transport and Storage
Please keep the original packaging for later transport,
e.g. for calibration. Any transport damage due to
faulty packaging will be excluded from warranty claims.
In order to avoid instrument damage, it is advised to
remove batteries when not using the instrument over
a certain time period. However, should the instrument
be contaminated by leaking battery cells, you are
kindly requested to return it to the factory for cleaning
and inspection.
Instruments must be stored in dry and closed areas.
In the case of an instrument being transported in
extreme temperatures, a recovery time of minimum 2
hours is required prior to instrument operation.
Safety
The Clamp Meter DL6507 has been manufactured
and tested to comply with the safety regulations
for electronic measuring equipment contained in
DIN VDE 0411 and EN 61010, and left our works in a
safe condition.
To maintain this condition, the user must observe the
safety instructions contained in this Instruction Manual.
To avoid electric shock, safety measures must
be observed when working with voltages higher
than 120 V (60 V) DC or 50 V (25 V) RMS AC.
The values in brackets apply to medical and
agricultural applications.
Safety Information
Before each measurement make sure that the
test leads and the instrument are undamaged.
Only handle test leads and probes on the grips
provided. Avoid touching probes under any
circumstances.
The relevant safety regulations for electrical
plant and equipment must be observed during
all operations.
The instrument must only be used in the
specied ranges.
Before opening the instrument, it must be
disconnected from all circuits.
Protect the instrument from prolonged exposure
to direct sunlight.
Appropriate Usage
The instrument may only be used under those
conditions and for those purposes for which it was
conceived. For this reason, in particular the safety
references, the technical data including environmental
conditions and the usage in dry environments must
be followed.
The instrument may only be opened by an
authorised service technician, e.g. for fuse
replacement.

Operating Instructions
Preparation and safety measures
Fitting the battery
Before using the instrument, the battery must be
tted. This is carried out as follows:
• Separate the instrument from any circuit, and
remove the test leads.
• Open the housing by removing the screw on
the rear face.
• Fit a new battery (type 9 V IEC LR6), taking care that
the polarity is correct. Make sure that no wires are
trapped between the 2 halves of the housing, and
close it again.
• The instrument is now ready for use.
The selector switch must be turned to the
desired type of measurement before the probes
are connected to the circuit.
Before switching to a new function, the probes
must always be removed from the circuit.
Use the instrument only if clean and dry
surroundings. Dirt and moisture reduce the
effectiveness of the insulation, with consequent
danger of electric shock, especially when dealing
with high voltages.
Operating Instructions
Use the instrument only if the specied ranges.
Before making measurements, verify that the
instrument is functioning properly, for example by
testing on a known voltage or current. Make sure
that the test leads are undamaged.
Current Measurements
Never measure currents in uninsulated
conductors carrying more than 250 V!
Only handle test leads and probes on the grips
provided. Avoid touching the probes under any
circumstances.
• Turn selector switch (2) to “[AC]”
• Open the clamp, and close it round the conductor.
Make sure that the clamp properly encircles the
conductor, and that there is no air gap between
the jaws.
If the display is not visible during measurement,
press the “HOLD” button (3) to retain the
display. The clamp can then be removed from
the conductor and the stored value read.

Operating Instructions
Voltage measurements
Do not connect more than 600 V AC / DC to
the input sockets. Exceeding these values can
endanger the operator, and may result in
damage to the instrument.
Before switching to a new function, disconnect
the probes from the circuit.
Only handle test leads and probes on the grips
provided. Avoid touching the probes under
any circumstances.
• Turn selector switch (2) to 400V
• Plug the black test lead into the “COM” socket and
the red lead into the “VΩ” socket
• Connect the probes to the circuit and read
the display
If the display is not visible during measurement,
press the “HOLD” button (3) to retain the display.
The probes can then be removed from the
conductor and the stored value read.
