ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
This instrument is intended for indoor use in an installation category II, pollution
degree 2 environment. It is designed to operate at a maximum relative humidity of
95% and at altitudes of up to 2000 meters. Refer to the specifications tables for the ac
mains voltage requirements and ambient operating temperature range.
Ventilation Requirements: When installing the product in a cabinet, the convection
into and out of the product must not be restricted. The ambient temperature (outside
the cabinet) must be less than the maximum operating temperature of the product by
4° C for every 100 watts dissipated in the cabinet. If the total power dissipated in the
cabinet is greater than 800 watts, then forced convection must be used.
BEFORE APPLYING POWER
Verify that the product is set to match the available line voltage, the correct fuse is
installed, and all safety precautions are taken. Note the instrument's external
markings described under Safety Symbols.
GROUND THE INSTRUMENT
To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cover must be connected to an
electrical protective earth ground. The instrument must be connected to the ac power
mains through a grounded power cable, with the ground wire firmly connected to an
electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. Any interruption of the
protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection of the protective earth terminal
will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury.
FUSES
Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and specified type (normal blow,
time delay, etc.) should be used. Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse
holders. To do so could cause a shock or fire hazard.
DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
DO NOT REMOVE THE INSTRUMENT COVER
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement
and internal adjustments must be made only by qualified service personnel.
Instruments that appear damaged or defective should be made inoperative and
secured against unintended operation until they can be repaired by qualified service
personnel.
