Table Top/Rack Mount Installation Instructions

D.5 Input Supply

Overloading of supply circuits could impact over-current protection and supply wiring. To ensure
that supply circuits are not overloaded review the nameplate ratings. Connect the unit only to a
properly rated supply circuit.

D.6 Grounding

Reliable grounding of this equipment must be maintained. Pay particular attention to supply
connections when connecting to power strips, rather than direct connections to the branch circuit.

D.7 Radiation Performance

This unit complies with FDA radiation performance standards, 21CFR, Sub-chapter J.
