required in laboratories where safety standards require additional grounding protection
when equipment is connected to human subjects. Always observe the relevant safety
standards and instructions.
Note that electromagnetically-induced interference in the recorded signal can be
reduced by minimizing the loop area of signal cables, for example by twisting them
together, or by moving power supplies away from sensitive equipment to reduce the
inductive pick-up of mains frequency fields. Please consult a good text for further
discussion of noise reduction.
Cleaning and Sterilization
ADInstruments products may be wiped down with a lint free cloth moistened with
industrial methylated spirit. Refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines or the Data
Card supplied with transducers and accessories for specific cleaning and sterilizing
instructions.
Inspection and Maintenance
PowerLab systems and ADInstruments front-ends are all maintenance-free and do
not require periodic calibration or adjustment to ensure safe operation. Internal
diagnostic soft ware performs system checks during power up and will report errors if a
significant problem is found. There is no need to open the instrument for inspection or
maintenance, and doing so within the warranty period will void the warranty.
Your PowerLab system can be periodically checked for basic safety by using an
appropriate safety testing device. Tests such as earth leakage, earth bond, insulation
resistance, subject leakage and auxiliary currents and power cable integrity can all be
performed on the PowerLab system without having to remove the covers. Follow the
instructions for the testing device if performing such tests. If the PowerLab system is
found not to comply with such testing you should contact your PowerLab representative
to arrange for the equipment to be checked and serviced.
Environment
Electronic components are susceptible to corrosive substances and atmospheres, and
must be kept away from laboratory chemicals.
