Protect power cords from being stepped on, driven over, crushed, cut, split etc.
especially when they are live. Only use power cords with an earth contact. Before
connecting to the mains, check the correct voltage (see technical data)!
Before changing lamps, switch off the power and wait for it to cool down.
Before changing fuses find the cause of the fault, and pull out the mains power plug!
In case of equipment trouble, switch off the mains power and call for qualified
maintenance personnel.
Electrical equipment casings must only be opened by a qualified electrician!
If using a computer to run FINEPLACER
®
Modules, we recommend that it is not
supplied by the mains outlet of the placer control box to prevent unintentional shut
down of the computer when turning off the FINPLACER
®
Modules.
2.7
Electrostatic Discharge, Electromagnetic Compatibility
Protection of ESD sensitive devices is the responsibility of the user. This means that
the FINEPLACER
®
has to be operated in an ESD protected area (EPA according to
IEC 61340) in any cases when ESD sensitive devices are handled. The equipment is
prepared in so far as electrostatic charges are deflected to the ground terminal.
FINEPLACER
®
s and their modules conform to EC Directive of Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC).
Magnetic fields being beyond the limits of the above directive could anyhow influence
the function of Finetech heating modules resulting in temperature deviation or
unexpected program stops.
2.8
Heat and Fire Hazards, Risk of Burns
Heating plates and other heating accessories may cause heat and fire hazards by
improper use and in the case of equipment defects. Therefore, heating equipment
must only be worked under supervision and be switched off if not in use.
During operation, heating plates, lamps and their adjacent parts may become hot; up
to approximately 400°C, and should not be touched, please use suitable tools.
Heating modules may damage substrates and devices in the case of excessive
temperature/time dosage, especially if heating plates are used. Excessive heat may
produce fumes or smoke resulting in health hazards. Therefore, measure heat
carefully, especially when using the manually controlled modules, and stop heating in
good time. Increase temperature and time settings cautiously so as not to damage
components and substrates.
Never run FINEPLACER
®
heating modules differently from rules given in the instruc-
tions!
Never use their heat abusively against people or heat sensitive
material!
Keep the direct flow of heated gas away from people and temperature
sensitive parts!
