Safety Notices
WARNING:
GAMMA VACUUM CONTROLLERS DESIGNED FOR ION-PUMP OPERATION
ARE CAPABLE OF DELIVERING 7000 VDC UNDER OPEN CIRCUIT OR LOW PRESSURE
OPERATING CONDITIONS.
GAMMA VACUUM PRODUCTS ARE DESIGNED AND
MANUFACTURED TO PROVIDE PROTECTION AGAINST ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL
HAZARDS FOR THE OPERATOR AND THE AREA SURROUNDING THE PRODUCT.
OBSERVE ALL INFORMATION IN THIS SECTION.
Installation procedures are for use by qualified and authorized personnel who have experience working with
voltages greater than 50 volts. To avoid personal injury, do not perform any installation or service unless qualified
to do so.
There are no serviceable parts inside the controller power-supply, and voltages over 5000V are present. Do not
open the supply case under any circumstances. In the event of the power-supply requiring attention return it to
Gamma Vacuum.
Do not disconnect the high-voltage cable with power on. After turning power off, allow at least one minute before
disconnecting electrical equipment.
Do not operate the control without a proper electrical ground or near water. The controller may be damaged and
its safety reduced, if it is operated outside of its specifications.
