I. Important Safety Information
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The equipment described in this manual is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design
limits. Any misuse may result in electric shock or fire. To prevent the equipment from being damaged,
the following rules should be observed for installation, use and maintenance.
Read the following
safety instructions before operating the instrument.
POWER
POWER CORD:
Use only the power cord specified for this equipment and certified for the country of use. If the
power (mains) plug is replaced, follow the wiring connections specified for the country of use. When installing or
removing the power plug,
hold the plug, not the cord.
The power cord provided is equipped with a
3-prong grounded plug (a plug with a third grounding pin).
This
is both a safety feature to avoid electrical shock and a requirement for correct equipment operation. If the outlet
to be used does not accommodate the 3-prong plug, either change the outlet or use a grounding adapter.
FUSES:
Replace fuses only with those having the required current rating, voltage, and specified type such as
normal blow, time delay, etc.
DO NOT
use makeshift fuses or short the fuse holder. This could cause a shock or
fire hazard or severely damage the instrument.
OPERATION
CAUTION
DO NOT OPERATE WITH COVERS OR PANELS REMOVED.
Voltages inside the equipment consist of
line (mains) that can be anywhere from
100-240VAC.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH SUSPECTED EQUIPMENT FAILURES.
If any odor or smoke becomes apparent
turn off the equipment and unplug it immediately. Failure to do so may result in electrical shock, fire, or
permanent damage to the equipment. Contact the factory for further instructions.
DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE:
Operating the equipment in the presence of
flammable gases or fumes
constitutes a definite safety hazard
. For equipment designed to operate in such
environments the proper safety devices must be used such as dry air or inert gas purge, intrinsic safe barriers
and/or explosion-proof enclosures.
USE DISTILLED OR DEIONIZED WATER SOURCE FOR HUMIDIFICATION.
Build-up of contaminates on
the transducer will cause stress to the transducer and electronics and resulting in premature failure and
invalidate the warranty.
