  6.3  Troubleshooting Guide 

Trouble symptoms described in the manual are limited to those that have been 
experienced  by  ULVAC  and  that  can  possibly  happen.    If  a  trouble  occurs 
simultaneously  with  that  of  the  electron  beam  gun  power  supply,  the 
symptom may differ from that described here.    In that event, also refer to the 
troubleshooting guide for the E/B power supply. 
 
 

DANGER 

1.

 

The voltage applied in the EB gun is enough to give danger to a human 
life. If you touch the EB GUN or a surrounding of the EB GUN, turn off 
the  main  breaker  of  the  EB  power  supply  and  leave  it  for  5  minutes  or 
more. 

2.

 

Improper ground cable gives danger to a human life. Check the cable not 
to loose the connection, or not to be superfluously long. The regulation of 
ground is described in a EB power supply instruction manual. 

3.

 

Never  use  the  EB  gun  in  a  humid  environment.  Even  in  low-voltage, 
electric shock may occur. In case of water leakage, wipe up water and use 
the EB gun after drying. 

4.

 

Never  short-circuit  the  interlock  circuit  of  the  electron  beam  gun  power       
supply. 

5.

 

If  a  high  voltage  is  applied  during  disassembling,  reassembling  or         
checking of the electron beam gun, a serious accident can happen. Be sure 
to turn OFF the main switch on the electron beam gun power supply and 
keep the switch key yourself. 

 
 

NOTE 

Wear clean gloves on maintenance of a vacuum chamber.
