product as specified. 
 
Only suitably qualified personnel should use this equipment.  Servicing of this product should 
only be carried out by suitably qualified service personnel. 
 
Hazardous voltages and currents are present on the outputs of this unit. 
 

To Avoid Fire Hazards and Personal Injury 

 
Use the correct power supply lead.  Only use a suitably rated and approved power supply lead 
for the country of use. 
 
Ensure that systems that the unit is to be connected to are dead. 
 
Do not connect and disconnect leads whilst outputs are switched on. 
 
Ensure that the product is grounded.  To avoid electric shock it is essential that the grounding 
conductor is connected to the earth ground.  If an additional earth terminal is provided on the 
equipment that may be connected to a local earth.  Ensure that the product is properly 
grounded before making any connections to inputs or outputs. 
 
Terminal ratings must be observed to prevent fire hazards and risk of injury to the operator.  
Consult the product manual for ratings information before making connections to any terminal. 
 
It is ESSENTIAL to consult the product manual for rating information before making any 
connection to a terminal or terminal group marked with a warning triangle. 
 
Only use fuses of a type and rating specified for this product. 
 
Do not operate the unit out of its case or with any covers or panels removed. 
 
Do not touch exposed connections and components when power is present. 
 
Do not operate the product if any damage is suspected.  Refer the unit to qualified service 
personnel to be checked. 
 
Do not operate the unit in wet or damp conditions 
 
Do not operate the unit in an explosive atmosphere 
 

 
If any further queries occur regarding the usage and maintenance of the 
equipment detailed in this manual, please refer these to the supplier of the 
equipment in the first case or to:
