1.1 Safety
Attention
All statements regarding safety of operation and technical data in this instruction manual
will only apply when the unit is operated correctly as it was designed for.
Prior to applying power to the TXP5016, make sure that the protective conductor of the 3
conductor mains power cord is correctly connected to the protective earth ground
contact of the socket outlet! Improper grounding can cause electric shock with damages
to your health or even death!
All modules must only be operated with proper shielded connection cables.
The TXP5016 must not be operated in explosion endangered environments!
Do not remove covers! Do not obstruct the air ventilation slots in the housing!
Do not open the cabinet, there are no parts serviceable by the operator inside!
Refer servicing to qualified personnel!
Only with written consent from Thorlabs GmbH may changes to single components be
