Safety Practices . 15
Electrical Safety
The spectrometer module comes assembled within a protective housing to prevent exposure
to electrical hazards. There is also a number of exterior service panels that you should
remove only if you are cleaning the air filters. For more information see Cleaning the Air
Filters
on page 91.
WARNING
Removal of the protective housing or external panels, other than for
maintenance procedures specifically described in this manual, is
dangerous and is not recommended under any circumstances.
If the protective covers or service panels on the instrument appear to be
damaged, turn the instrument off, secure the instrument against any
unauthorized operation and contact PerkinElmer for advice before using
it again.
Electrical Protection
Insulation: Class I rating for external circuits. Only connect equipment that meets the
requirements of IEC 61010-1, IEC 60950 or equivalent standards.
Power Supplies
The RamanMicro 200 is powered by one external PSU. The PSU used with the spectrometer
module can adjust automatically to a variety of AC power sources as outlined in Table 1.
Table 1 PSU input voltages and mains fluctuations information
Input Voltage Mains Fluctuations
100–230 V AC ±10% of the nominal voltage
WARNING
Under no circumstances should you attempt to disassemble the PSU and
carry out repairs. If the PSU has a fault, please contact your PerkinElmer
Service Representative. The entire unit must be replaced.
Connect the PSU to a three-wire (live, neutral and ground/earth) socket. The ground must be
a non-current carrying wire that is connected to the earth ground at the main distribution
box. The power point (socket) for the instrument PSU should be easily accessible for when
the instrument is serviced.
WARNING
Check the line voltage and frequency of the power point (socket) before
the instrument is connected or the power is switched on. This should be
carried out prior to the installation of the instrument and at any time the
instrument is plugged into a different power point (socket).
