FAQ

1. Q: What is the IP65 protection rating?
   A: The IP65 protection rating means that the UT196 solar digital multimeter is dust-tight and protected against water jets from any direction.
2. Q: Can the UT196 withstand drops?
   A: Yes, the UT196 is designed to withstand drops of up to 2 meters.
3. Q: What is the purpose of the low-pass filter function?
   A: The low-pass filter function helps isolate high-frequency noise generated by the drive controller, allowing for more accurate measurements in noisy environments.
4. Q: Is the UT196 safe to use in different environments?
   A: Yes, the UT196 has been tested for safe usage in CAT III 1000V and CAT IV 600V environments, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
