INSTALLATION

INITIAL INSPECTION

Before shipment, this instrument was inspected and found to be free of mechanical and electrical defects. As soon as the instrument is unpacked, inspect for any damage that may have occurred in transit. Save all packing materials until the inspection is completed. If damage is found, a claim should be filed with the carrier. The Agilent Technologies Sales and Service office should be notified as soon as possible.

Mechanical Check

This check should confirm that there are no broken knobs or connectors, that the cabinet and panel surfaces are free of dents and scratches, and that the meter is not scratched or cracked.

Electrical Check

Perform the TURN-ON CHECKOUT PROCEDURE in the fol- lowing paragraph to confirm that the supply is operational. Alternately, check the supply more fully using the PERFOR- MANCE TEST in the service information section.

INSTALLATION DATA

The instrument is shipped ready for bench operation. Before applying power to the supply, please read the INPUT POWER REQUIREMENTS paragraph.

Location and Cooling

This instrument is air cooled. Sufficient space should be allowed so that a free flow of cooling air can reach the sides and rear of the instrument when it is in operation. It should be used in an area where the ambient temperature does not exceed 40oC.

Outline Diagram

Figure 1 illustrates the outline shape and dimensions of the supply.

Rack Mounting

This supply may be rack mounted in a standard 19-inch rack panel either by itself or alongside a similar unit. Please see the ACCESSORY, page 1-4, for available rack mounting accessory. The rack-mounting kit includes complete installa- tion instructions.

INPUT POWER REQUIREMENTS

Depending on the line voltage option ordered, the supply is ready to be operated from one of the power sources listed in Table 1. A label on the rear heat sink shows the nominal input voltage set for the supply at the factory.

Power Cable

To protect operating personnel, the supply should be grounded. This supply is equipped with a three conductor power cable. The third conductor is the ground conductor and when the cable is plugged into an appropriate receptacle, the supply is grounded.

The power supply is equipped at the factory with a power

cord plug appropriate for the user's location. Notify the near- est Agilent Sales and Service Office if the appropriate power cord is not included with the supply.
