3 Safety instructions
In addition to the general rules for handling electrical equip-
ment, the following safety precautions must be observed.
Read and observe the below listed information before initial
operation of the equipment.
Supply a copy of the safety precautions when selling, leasing, or
otherwise distributing this equipment.
ATTENTION!
Improper handling of the device, non-compliance with the safety
hints below, or tampering with the safety features can cause
property damage, bodily injury, electric shock, or even death.
The main function of the flash generator Nova D is to provide
electric power for specific types of flashes. It is mainly designed
for use inside a studio. Operating it outside of a studio requires
taking certain precautions, see below.
The flash generator is only to be used with the accessories ap-
proved by Hensel-Visit which are described in this manual.
The appliance may not be used for any other purpose than
described above, especially not for other electrical applications.
Set-up and initial operation
• Do not use flash units in explosive environments.
• Before connecting the Nova D to the power supply, make
sure that the mains voltage corresponds to the specifications
listed on the unit’s specification plate.
• The Nova D must only be connected to grounded power
supply systems.
• Only use plugs/connectors with flawless contacts. Burned
and/or corroded plug contacts can be the cause of fires.
Defective plugs may lead to damaged plug sockets. The
generator‘s plug sockets also need to be checked for conse-
quential damage.
• Do not connect accessories from other manufacturers, even
when these look similar or alike.

• To prevent damages and tripping hazards, avoid laying
cables on the floor. If this is not possible, make sure that
the cables cannot be damaged by vehicles, ladders, etc.
• Damaged cables and housings need to be replaced imme-
diately by an authorized service department.
• Keep the minimum distance around the equipment unobst-
ructed to ensure proper ventilation.
• Do not place any objects on top of the equipment (coffee
cups, vases, containers filled with water, etc.).
• Protect the equipment from moisture, dripping or splashing
water.
• Choose safe locations for set-up and make sure that the
equipment cannot fall into pools or bodies of water.
• Keep proper distance from flammable materials like deco-
rative fabrics or paper to prevent the risk of fire.
• Secure the equipment with a back-up support when atta-
ching it to ceilings or pantographs. Use the device’s safety
features and secure the device additionally with a safety
rope. Suitable safety ropes can be purchased from Hensel-
Visit, see „14 Accessories“ on page 39.

Generators and flash heads
ATTENTION!
Defective flash tubes and false handling with defective units can
pose a mortal danger.
A damaged flash tube can mean mortal danger because you
could come in contact with the electrodes conducting high vol-
tage. Therefore, never touch exposed electrodes inside the flash
tube!
First, switch off generators and disconnect them from the power
supply. Then disconnect the flash from the generator.
Flash tubes must only be changed by authorized and trained
personnel. Changing flash tube and modeling light must only
be done after the generator has been switched off and the flash
head is disconnected therefrom.
Halogen lamps and flash tubes may burst and must only be
operated with properly mounted Hensel safety dome.
ATTENTION!
Risk of death when coming in contact with the condenser volta-
ge.
Opening the housing and repairs of the unit must only be done
by an authorized customer service provider.
Working with the equipment
• Do not flash into eyes at short distances since this may lead
to eye damage.
• Do not look directly into the flash tube or the reflector. The
flash could be triggered accidentally.
• Regularly air closed rooms to prevent build-up of inadmissi-
ble ozone concentrations which can occur due to the use of
high-powered flash systems.
• Cover the equipment which is not in use with a proper dust
guard when working in a dusty environment.
