User/Installer Instructions for the United Kingdom

Important Safety Considerations When Installing Into A Host Computer System

The Eiconcard C2x is a single PCI card.

Installation Within A Spare Slot Position

Warning: It is essential that, when other option cards are introduced which use or generate a hazardous voltage, the minimum creepages and clearances specified in the table below are maintained. Suitable user protection to ensure compliance with EN60950/A4 should be present on the card. A hazardous voltage is one which exceeds 42.4V peak a.c or 60V d.c. If you have any doubt, seek advice from a competent engineer before installing other adapters into the host equipment.

The equipment must be installed such that with the exception of the connections to the host, clearance and creepage distances shown in the table below are maintained between the card and any other assemblies which use or generate a voltage shown in the table below.

Table 4. Creepage Distances

The larger distance shown in brackets applies where the local environment within the host is subject to conductive pollution or dry non-conductive pollution which could become conductive due to condensation. Failure to maintain these minimum distances would invalidate the approval.

The clearance distance X is the shortest distance in air between two points. The creepage path Y (along surfaces) is the shortest distance between the same two points.
