Safety recommendations
Users are strongly recommended to comply with the instructions contained in the following docu-

All SIF5600 devices must be installed, operated, serviced and and maintained only by qualified per-
sonnel; thytronic can assume no responsibility for the consequences as a result of improper use, or
failure to comply with the recommendations contained in this document.
Its is particularly recommended to:
- disconnecting from the power supply prior to performing any work inside the device;
- verify, with the aid of proper instruments, that there is no voltage over any of the input/output ter-
minals, paying particular attention to all circuits which may be supplied by external power sources
(logical inputs, blocking circuits, measuring inputs, etc..);
- pay particular attention when handling any metallic parts (front panel, connectors).
Insulation tests
Following insulation testing, which may lead to the production of dangerously high voltages (charged
capacitors, etc...), it is advised not to abruptly interrupt the test voltage but rather to reduce it gradu-
ally to zero.
