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 are present in the unit.
Exposure to RF or microwave power can cause burns and may be
harmful to health. Switch off supplies before removing covers or
disconnecting any RF cables, and before inspecting damaged cables
or antennas.
WARNING: Avoid standing in front of high gain antennas (such as 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.
CAUTION: 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. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD)
precautions should be employed to prevent accidental damage.
