Review Safety Information

This power supply is a Safety Class 1 instrument, which means it has a protective earth terminal. That terminal must

be connected to earth ground through a power source equipped with an earth ground. Refer to the Safety Notices sec-

tion at the beginning of this guide for general safety information. Before installation or operation, check the power sup-

ply and review this guide for safety warnings and instructions. Safety warnings for specific procedures are located at

appropriate places throughout this guide.

Observe Environmental Conditions

Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.

The environmental conditions of the power supply are documented under Specifications. Basically, the unit should only

be operated indoors in a controlled environment. Do not operate the unit in areas where the ambient temperature

exceeds +45 degrees Celsius. This applies for rack-mounting as well as for bench use.

Use Caution when Transporting the Unit

Two people are required when handling units. Because of the unit’s weight, do not lift or move it

alone. Moving by hand should be avoided where possible. If unavoidable, lift only the instrument’s

chassis; do not lift the unit using the exterior handles, knobs, or output terminals.
