2.Safety considerations

This section contains definitions and warnings, and practical information to ensure a safe working environment. Please take time to read this section before undertaking any installation work.

2.1 Definitions

‘Maintenance’

All maintenance must be carried out by fully trained personnel. Note: it is advisable to observe suitable ESD precautions when maintenance to any part is undertaken.

‘Non-User Adjustments’

Adjustments or alterations to the equipment may affect the performance such that safety and/or international compliance standards may no longer be met. Any such adjustments must therefore only be carried out by fully trained personnel.

‘Users’

This equipment is designed for use solely by engineers and competent operators skilled in the use of professional audio equipment.

‘Environment’

This product is a Class A product intended to form an integrated component part of a professional audio recording, mixing, dubbing, film, TV, radio broadcast or similar studio wherein it will perform to specification providing that it is installed according to professional practice.

2.2 Electrical Safety Warning

When installing or servicing any item of Solid State Logic equipment with power applied, when cover and/or blank panels are removed, HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS CAN EXIST.

These hazards include:High voltages

High energy stored in capacitors

High currents available from DC power busses

Hot component surfaces

Any metal jewellery (watches, bracelets, neck-chains and rings) that could inadvertently come into contact with uninsulated parts should always be removed before reaching inside powered equipment.

2.3Installation

Voltage Selection and Fusing

The X-Rack unit has an auto-sensing power supply that can operate on 100 – 230V without adjustment.

The X-Rack power supply module is internally fused. If the fuse should fail for any reason the unit should be returned to Solid State Logic for repair/replacement as appropriate.

Safety Earth Connection

Any mains powered item of Solid State Logic equipment that is supplied with a 3-core mains lead (whether connectorised or not) should always have the earth wire connected to the mains supply ground. This is the safety earth and grounds the exposed metal parts of the racks and cases and should not be removed for any reason. Note that the earth stud provided on the rear of the equipment is a functional earth not a safety earth.
