Mains connection
Attention
:
Your Speed Max is equipped with Multivoltage
Technology that allows the operation of the unit worldwide
with mains supplies from 110 to 230 V/ 50 or 60Hz.
However, it must be ensured that the electric rating of the
modeling light fuse found in the fuse holder
18,
integrated
into the mains supply socket
17
, and the modeling lamp
itself are of the correct type required for safe operation
with that particular mains supply voltage.
The provided power cable serves the purpose of con-
necting the mains socket
17
to the mains supply outlet.
This flash unit must only be operated when con-
nected to mains outlets with properly installed ground
connection.
The flash unit is turned ON/OFF with the mains switch
16
.
Attention: After turning the flash unit off there are still
dangerous voltages present within the unit and at the
electrodes of the flash tube for some time.
Fuses
Outlets, building circuits
An outlet in a circuit with a
16 A
fuse is required for the
safe operation of the Speed Max flash unit.
Fuses for the flash unit
The task for fuse
18
is to protect the modeling lamp
circuit.
The Speed Max requires a 2A-fuse with a blow time rating
"fast" (2 AF) for operation on a 230V/50 Hz mains line if a
300W/230V halogen modeling lamp is being used.
For operation on a 115/60 Hz mains line a 4AF-fuse is
required to protect a 300W/115V halogen modeling lamp.

ment of fuses
".
