Warnings
Attention! This device produces dangerous voltage above 3000V.
Due to capacitive charging,
i
t can still be present even after the device has been switched off!
Please respect the following rules before every start-up of the high voltage amplifier:
•
The device should be operated only by skilled personnel, in accordance with the local regulations
and the instructions given in this manual.
•
Before switching the unit on, the experiment set-up should be checked out, and safety should be
assured. High voltage areas have to be sealed off and secured.
•
In case of suspected damage or malfunction, the device should immediately be put out of service,
and it should be secured against unintentional or accidental operation.
•
To provide protection for personnel in case of unit failure, the safety ground must always be
connected! Local regulations about grounding should be taken into account.
•
High voltages may still exist even after the switch-off of the device due to capacitive charge!
Capacitances connected to the outputs of the device can possibly remain charged to dangerous
voltages, even after switching off the device
•
Before removing any covers disconnect the unit from the power supply!
•
Before touching the output or working on the experimental setup, disconnect the unit from the
power supply!
•
The device may only be operated as a component of an overall structure that fully complies with
