typical of cord-and-plug connected equipment.
Pollution Degree The 6000 Series Oscilloscope may be operated
in environments of Pollution Degree 2 (or Pollution Degree 1).
Pollution Degree Definitions Pollution Degree 1: No pollution or
only dry, non-conductive pollution occurs. The pollution has no
influence. Example: A clean room or climate controlled office
environment.
Pollution Degree 2. Normally only dry non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by
condensation may occur. Example: General indoor
environment.
Pollution Degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry,
non-conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due
to condensation which is expected. Example: Sheltered outdoor
environment.
