There are no user-serviceable parts inside the device.

Refer to an authorized dealer for service and/or spare parts.

This is an installation category CAT III measuring

instrument. Refer to §7 Overvoltage/installation category.

Read this addendum and the manual thoroughly. Familiarise

yourself with the functions of the device before actually using it.

All modifications of the device are forbidden for safety reasons.

Damage caused by user modifications to the device is not

covered by the warranty.

Only use the device for its intended purpose. Using the device in

an unauthorized way will void the warranty. Damage caused by

disregard of certain guidelines in this manual is not covered by

the warranty and the dealer will not accept responsibility for any

ensuing defects or problems.

4. Maintenance

There are no user-serviceable parts inside the device.

Refer to an authorized dealer for service and/or spare parts.

Before performing any maintenance activities, disconnect the test leads

from the jacks.

For instructions on replacing battery or fuse, refer to §11 Battery and fuse

replacement.

Do not apply abrasives or solvents to the meter. Use a damp cloth and mild

detergent for cleaning purposes.

5. During Use

Risk of electric shock during operation. Be very careful when

measuring live circuits.

•If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the

manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be

impaired.

•Never exceed the limit value for protection. This limit value is

listed separately in the specifications for each range of

measurement.

•Do not touch unused terminals when the meter is linked to a

circuit which is being tested.

•Never use the meter with CAT III installations when measuring

voltages that might exceed the safety margin of 1000 V above

earth ground.

DVM030

V. 01 –04/05/2023 6 ©Velleman Group nv

•Set the range selector at its highest position if the intensity of the

charge to be measured is unknown beforehand.

•Disconnect the test leads from the tested circuit before rotating

the range selector in order to change functions.

•When carrying out measurements on a TV set or switching power

circuits, always remember that the meter may be damaged by

any high amplitude voltage pulses at test points.

•Always be careful when working with voltages above 60 VDC or

30 VAC rms. Keep your fingers behind the probe barriers at all

times during measurement.

•Never perform resistance, diode or continuity measurements on

live circuits. Make sure all capacitors in the circuit are depleted.

2. LED indicator

3. Illuminated LCD Display

4. Function buttons

5. Rotaty switch

6. “A” jack

Insert the red test lead in this connector in order to measure a max.

current of 10 A.

7. “µA/mA” jack

Insert the red test lead in this connector in order to measure a max.

current of 500 mA.

8. “VhFE Hz”jack

Insert the red (positive) test lead in this connector to measure voltage

and resistance.

Or insert the black test plug between “VhFE Hz” jack and COM

jack for capacitance or hFE measurements.

9. “COM” jack

Insert the black (negative) test lead.

7. Overvoltage/Installation Category

DMMs are categorized depending on the risk and severity of transient

overvoltage that might occur at the point of test. Transients are short-lived

bursts of energy induced in a system, e.g. caused by lightning strike on a

power line.

DVM030

V. 01 –04/05/2023 7 ©Velleman Group nv

The existing categories according EN 61010-1 are:

CAT

A CAT I-rated meter is suitable for measurements on protected

electronic circuits that are not directly connected to mains power,

e.g. electronics circuits, control signals…

CAT

A CAT II-rated meter is suitable for measurements in CAT I-

environments and mono-phase appliances that are connected to the

mains by means of a plug and circuits in a normal domestic

environment, provided that the circuit is at least 10 m apart from a

CAT III- or 20 m apart from a CAT IV-environment. E.g. household

appliances, portable tools…

CAT

III

A CAT III-rated meter is suitable for measurements in CAT I- and

CAT II-environments, as well as for measurements on (fixed) mono-

or poly-phased appliances which are at least 10 m apart from of a

CAT IV-environment, and for measurements in or on distribution

level equipment (fuse boxes, lighting circuits, electric ovens).

CAT

A CAT IV-rated meter is suitable for measuring in CAT I-, CAT II-

and CAT III-environments as well as on the primary supply level.

Note that for all measurements on equipment for which the supply

cables run outdoors (either overhead or underground) a CAT IV

meter must be used.

Warning:

This device was designed in accordance with EN 61010-1 installation

category CAT III 1000 V. This implies that certain restrictions in use apply

that are related to voltages and voltage peaks which can occur within the

environment of use. Refer to the table above.

This device is only suitable for measurements up to 1000 V in

CAT III

8. Pollution Degree

IEC 61010-1 specifies different types of pollution environments, for which

different protective measures are necessary to ensure safety. Harsher

environments require more protection, and the protection against the

pollution which is to be found in a certain environment depends mainly on

the insulation and the enclosure properties. The pollution degree rating of

the DVM indicates in which environment the device may be used.

Pollution

degree 1

No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. The

pollution has no influence. (only to be found in hermetically

sealed enclosures)

DVM030

V. 01 –04/05/2023 8 ©Velleman Group nv

Pollution

degree 2

Only nonconductive pollution occurs. Occasionally,

temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be

expected. (home and office environments fall under this

category)

Pollution

degree 3

Conductive pollution occurs, or dry nonconductive pollution

occurs that becomes conductive due to condensation that is

to be expected.

(industrial environments and environments exposed to

outside air - but not in contact with precipitation)

Pollution

degree 4

The pollution generates persistent conductivity caused by

conductive dust or by rain or snow. (exposed outdoor

environments and environments where high humidity levels

or high concentrations of fine particles occur)

Warning: This device was designed in accordance with EN 61010-1

pollution degree 2. This implies that certain restrictions in use apply that

are related to pollution which can occur within the environment of use. Refer

to the table above.

This device is only suitable for measurements in Pollution

degree class 2 environments.
