DOC-MN-008-03, VCCS300 User Manual

 

Safety 

The VCCS300 unit has been designed to comply with the Low Voltage Directive DIR 2014/35/EU (LVD), the EMC Directive DIR 2014/30/EU and DIR 2011/65/EU 
regarding the restriction of certain hazardous substances and is CE marked to show its compliance.  
When correctly installed (per  the  installation  instructions in this manual)  in a limited access environment the VCCS300S  &  M comply  with  the requirements of 
IEC/EN/UL/CSA 62368-1 2

nd

 Edition and IEC/EN/UL/CSA 60601 3

rd

 Edition, respectively. 

 

The power supply should not be operated close to combustible materials or atmosphere. 

 

Care should be taken to ensure liquid or metal shavings do not enter the power supply as this can cause a fire hazard. 

 

The power supply does not contain any user serviceable parts and should be returned to Vox Power for repair.

WARNING! 

 

Series connected units with combined voltages exceeding 60 volts are not considered SELV. Paralleled and/or series units with combined 
energy ratings greater than 240 VA may cause energy hazards. The equipment manufacturer must provide additional and adequate protection 
to service and technical personnel. 

 

Always remove the power before handling the unit. During operation, the external surface of the unit can become hot. Leave to stand for 10 
minutes to allow the unit to cool down before handling the unit. 

 

Dangerous voltages are present within the power supply even when the supply voltage has been removed.
