2. Package the instrument in the original packaging materi-
als. If the original packaging materials are not available,
follow these directions:
a. Obtain a carton of corrugated cardboard having
inside dimensions six or more inches greater than
the dimensions of the instrument. Use a shipping
carton that has a test strength of at least 275 pounds.
b. Surround the instrument with a protective bag
(anti-static preferred). If the instrument is not in a
cabinet, wrap a cardboard piece around the bagged
instrument to protect components.
c. Pack dunnage or urethane foam between the instru-
ment and the carton. If using Styrofoam kernels,
overfill the box and compress by closing the lid.
There should be three inches of tightly packed
cushioning on all sides of the instrument.
3. Seal the carton with shipping tape, industrial stapler, or
both.
Electrical Installation
Power Source
These monitors are designed to operate from a single-phase
power source having one of its current-carrying conductors at
or near earth ground (the neutral conductor). Only the line
conductor is fused for over-current protection. Systems that
have both current-carrying conductors live with respect to
ground (such as phase-to-phase on multiphase systems) are
not recommended as power sources. A protective ground
connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power
cord is essential for safe operation.
