ENSURE THE DETACHABLE FRONT PANEL BINDING POST IS FIRMLY SCREWED
Ensure the detachable front panel binding post is firmly screwed to the output terminal. This binding post comes
together with the instrument and is connected to the output terminal.
DO NOT REMOVE REAR OUTPUT TERMINAL COVER
- Do not remove the rear output terminal cover as it acts as safety cover to the output terminal.
- Output terminal connection must be performed with the presence of the output terminal cover.
ENSURE COVER IS SECURED IN PLACE
Do not operate the device with the cover removed or loosened.
TURN DEVICE OFF AND REMOVE ALL CONNECTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING THE GPIB INTERFACE
Turn off the power and remove all connections, including the power cord, from the instrument prior installation of the
GPIB interface.
ENSURE PROPER AWG CABLE IS USED
Use a cable with the correct voltage and AWG rating based on the intended setup when operating the E36150 Series
autoranging DC power supplies.
DO NOT TOUCH CABLES DURING OPERATION
Do not touch the cable while the instrument output is operational to prevent electric shock hazard and burn hazard.
DO NOT CONNECT FRONT AND REAR OUTPUT TERMINAL CONCURRENTLY
Do not connect the front and rear output terminal concurrently for the same output channel. Failing to observe the
connection requirement could potentially raise a fire hazard if the output current exceeding 80 A.
LETHAL VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS
- SHOCK HAZARD. Floating voltage must not exceed 240 V
DC
. The total voltage on the output terminal and the
floating voltage must not be more than 240 V
DC
from chassis ground.
- The output terminal is designed for DC application. Ensure that transient voltages do not exceed 90 V
PK
.
- The connector screw terminals will be at hazardous potential when in operation.
- Personal injury on contact may result if these terminals are touched when equipment is in operation.
- To avoid injuries, always disconnect power, discharge circuits, and remove external voltage sources before any
installation.
- Installation procedures must be performed by a qualified and trained personnel on this equipment.
CLEANING
To prevent electric shock, unplug the unit before cleaning.
COIN BATTERY REPLACEMENT
- Be sure to use battery (KPN 1420-0942) for the coin battery replacement.
- Incorrect battery type and battery polarity used during the battery replacement can cause damage to the
instrument.
- Refer to
E36150 Service Guide
for coin battery replacement procedures. Battery replacement must be made only by
qualified service personnel.
