Important Safety Instructions
WARNING: High Energy and High Voltage
Exercise caution when using a power supply. High energy levels can be stored at
the output voltage terminals on a power supply in normal operation. In addition,
potentially lethal voltages exist in the power circuit and on the output and sense
connectors of a power supply with a rated output greater than 40 V. Filter
capacitors store potentially dangerous energy for some time after power is
removed.
WARNING
Operate the power supply in an environment free of flammable gases or fumes.
To ensure that the power supply's safety features are not compromised, use the
power supply as specified in this manual and do not substitute parts or make any
unauthorized modifications. If service is necessary, please return the power
supply to the factory Authorized Service Center. See “Return Material
Authorization Policy” on page WA–3.
WARNING: Limitations on use
The XG 850W GPIB and Ethernet Interface Option is not intended for use in
connection with life support systems or other medical equipment or device.
