General Safety Information
To ensure awareness of potential hazards, all personnel concerned with the
operation or maintenance of the equipment must study the information that
follows, together with local site regulations.
WARNING: RF Power Hazard: High levels of RF power can be present satellite
communication systems. Exposure to RF or microwave power can
cause burns and may be harmful to health.
WARNING: Avoid standing in front of a dish and never look into the open end of
a waveguide or cable where RF power may be present.
CAUTION: We strongly recommended that you return any equipment requiring
RF servicing to Vislink.
WARNING: GaAs / BeO Hazard: Certain components inside the equipment
contain Gallium Arsenide and Beryllium Oxide that are toxic
substances. Whilst safe to handle under normal circumstances,
individual components must not be cut, broken apart, incinerated or
chemically processed. In the case of Beryllium Oxide, a white ceramic
material, the principal hazard is from the dust or fumes, which are
carcinogenic if ingested, inhaled or entering damaged skin.
Please consult your local authority before disposing of these components.
WARNING: Tantalum Capacitors: When subjected to reverse or excess forward
voltage, ripple current or temperature these components may rupture
and could potentially cause personal injury.
CAUTION: This system contains MOS devices. To prevent accidental damage,
employ Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) precautions.
