Users Manual Part 1

WARNING: Burn hazard. The metal housing of the product may become extremely hot. Use

caution when working around the equipment.

Figure 5: Warning Label on Hot Modules

WARNING: DC input voltage must be no higher than 60 VDC. This maximum voltage includes

consideration of the battery charging "float voltage" associated with the intended supply system,

regardless of the marked power rating of the equipment. Failure to follow this guideline may

result in electric shock.

RF energy burn hazard: disconnect power in the cabinet to prevent injury while disconnecting

and connecting antennas.

CAUTION: All Tx and Rx RF cables outer shields must be grounded per Motorola Solutions

Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites manual requirements.

All Tx and Rx RF cables must be connected to a surge protection device according to the

Motorola Solutions Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites manual. Do not connect

Tx and Rx RF cables directly to an outside antenna.

IMPORTANT: All equipment must be serviced by Motorola Solutions-trained personnel.

Mains Safety Precautions

This section contains information specifically related to mains safety when working with or operating

MTS.

WARNING: Hazardous mains voltages exist within the power supply of the MTS. This module

is not designed for field service. Depot servicing must include appropriate precautions when

fault finding this switch-mode power supply.

2.4

Battery Safety Precautions

This section contains information specifically related to safety when working with, or operating the MTS

batteries.

CAUTION: To prevent injury or burns, when replacing a Lithium battery, do not allow metal

objects to come in contact with the battery terminals.

CAUTION: Harmful gases may be generated by the battery backup. Battery backup should only

be operated in well ventilated areas.

WARNING: Batteries used for powering equipment pose the following risks:

• Explosion hazard resulting from inherent generation of hydrogen sulfide gas.

• Chemical burns/blindness resulting from sulfuric acid electrolyte.

• Very high current capabilities, with the possibility to burn, start fires, and result in arcing.
