COMPLIANCE

FDA-CDRH Compliance

Under the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), the

unit complies with the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 21, Subchapter J, which pertains to laser

safety and labeling. See following link for more information:

•http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?CFRPartFrom=1000&C

FRPartTo=1050

CSA / IEC Compliance

The unit complies with certain standards of the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and the

International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

The unit falls in the Installation Category (Overvoltage Category) II under IEC 664. IEC 664 relates to

impulse voltage levels and insulation coordination. The category is defined as: local level, appliances,

portable equipment, etc., with smaller transient overvoltages than Installation Category (Overvoltage

Category) III.

The unit falls in the Pollution Degree 2 category under IEC 1010-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 1010.1. The IEC

standard on Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control, and Laboratory Use

relates to insulation coordination. The CSA standard is on Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment

for Measurement Control, and Laboratory Use, Part I: General Requirements. The Pollution Degree 2

category is defined as follows: “Normally only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally, however, a

temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.”

CE Compliance

Electronic test equipment is subject to the EMC Directive in the European Union. The EN61326 standard

prescribes both emission and immunity requirements for laboratory, measurement, and control

equipment. This unit has undergone extensive testing according to the European Union Directive and

Standards.

GENERAL INFORMATION

PT1 Polarity Tester Overview

The PT1 Polarity Tester is an easy-to-use instrument specifically designed to check the polarity of fiber-

optic cable assemblies. The PT1 can be built with up to 288 channels in one chassis or expanded to 432 if

needed.

Figure 1: PT1 Polarity Tester

The PT1 is equipped with a touchscreen interface to allow for one touch testing of typical pre-

programmed types A, B, C and custom profiles. Remote operation is possible via USB or Ethernet. Testing

can be performed with JGR’s new XN1 Server or with the included Polarity Test Software which allows

saving results to Excel.

The Visual Fault Locator (VFL) mode enables easy manual identification of any possible damaged or

crossed fiber.

Applications

•MTP/MPO cable assembly mapping

•Multi-fiber assemblies

•Complex network mapping

•QC inspection

SAFETY INFORMATION

To avoid situations that could result in serious injuries or death, always observe the following precautions.

The safety instructions must be observed whenever the unit is operated, serviced, or repaired. Failure to

comply with any of these instructions or with any precaution or warning contained in the user manual is

in direct violation of the standards of design, manufacturing, and intended use of the unit. JGR Optics Inc.

assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with any of these safety requirements.

Safety Markings on the Unit

See Table 1 for symbols and messages that can be marked on the unit. Observe all safety instructions that

are associated with a symbol.

Table 1: Safety symbols

Laser radiation may be present. Refer to the user manual for instructions on handling

and operating the unit safely. Avoid looking into any ports near which this symbol

appears.

Frame or chassis terminal for electrical grounding within the unit.

Protective conductor terminal for electrical grounding to the earth.

WARNING

Procedure can result in serious injury or loss of life if not carried out in proper

compliance with all safety instructions. Ensure that all conditions necessary for safe

handling and operation are met before proceeding.

CAUTION

Procedure can result in serious damage to or destruction of the unit if not carried out

in compliance with all instructions for proper use. Ensure that all conditions necessary

for safe handling and operation are met before proceeding.

Classification

The PT1 consists of an exposed metal chassis that is connected directly to earth via a power cord and is

therefore classified as a Class 1 instrument.

The laser (or lasers) contained in the PT1 is (are) Class 2 laser(s) as specified under the laser classification

of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH). See

Table 2 for laser specifications.

Important Safety Information

Laser Hazards

Warning

•Never look directly into the end of an optical cable connected to an optical

output device that is operating. Laser radiation is invisible and direct

exposure can severely injure the human eye.

Electrical Hazards

Warning

•Some of the circuits are powered whenever the unit is connected to the AC

power source (line power). To ensure that all circuits are powered off,

disconnect the power cord from either the power inlet on the unit’s rear

panel or from the AC line-power source (receptacle). The power cord must

always be accessible from one of these points. If the unit is installed in a

cabinet, the operator must be able to disconnect the unit from the line power

by the system’s line-power switch.

•Use only the type of power cord supplied with the unit. If you need to replace

a lost or damaged cord, make sure to replace with a power cord of the same

type.

•Connect the power cord only to a power outlet equipped with a protective

earth contact. Never connect to an extension cord or any receptacle that is

not equipped with this feature.

•If using a voltage-reducing autotransformer to power the unit, ensure that

the common terminal connects to the earthed pole of the power source.
