ELECTROSURGICAL UNIT PSD-30
3.2
Connection to an AC mains power supply
Connect the power plug of the power cord directly to a
grounded wall mains outlet. If the electrosurgical unit is not
grounded properly, it can cause an electric shock and/or fire.
• Do not bend, pull or twist the power cord. Electric shock,
equipment damage and/or fire can result.
• To prevent the risk of electric shock, the housing of the
electrosurgical unit must be grounded. Always connect the
power cord plug to a properly grounded hospital grade AC
receptacle (wall mains outlet).
• Always plug the power cord into a 3-pin outlet. Do not use a
3-pin/2-pin adapter, as it can impair the safe operation of the
unit.
• Do not allow the power cord to become wet. Electric shock,
equipment damage or fire can result.
• Always use the power cord provided with the electrosurgical
unit. Never attempt to modify the power cord.
• If the same circuit breaker is used to supply power to other
electrosurgical equipment, carefully consider the power
requirements of the additional equipment and use circuit
breakers that have ample capacity. Otherwise, the
electrosurgical unit does not work correctly.
