Introduction
This chapter contains instructions for checking and mounting your power supply, connecting your supply to ac power, converting it from one line voltage to another, and connecting the
The power supply generates operating magnetic fields which may affect the operation of other instruments. If your instrument is susceptible to magnetic fields, do not locate it in the immediate vicinity of the power supply. Typically, at three inches from the power supply, the electromagnetic field is less than 5 gauss.
NOTE | The HP 662xA power supplies generate operating magnetic fields which may affect the operation of |
| other instruments. If your instrument is susceptible to operating magnetic fields, position it more than 3 |
| inches from the HP 662xA supply. |
Initial Inspection
Your instrument was thoroughly inspected and tested before it left the factory. As soon as you receive it, remove the power supply from its packing case and check to make sure it has not been damaged in shipment. Check that there are no broken connectors or keys, and that the cabinet and panel surfaces are free from dents and scratches. Check the rear panel terminal blocks and front panel display for any cracks. If damage is found, you should file a claim with the carrier immediately and notify the

Keep the original packing materials for the carrier' s inspection if there was damage, or in case any equipment has to be returned to
Location and Cooling
Your power supply can operate without loss of performance within the temperature range of 0 to 55 ° C (measured at the fan intake). The fan, located at the rear of the unit, cools the supply by drawing air in through the openings on the rear panel and exhausting it through openings on the sides. Using
Because the power supply is fan cooled, it must be installed in a location that allows sufficient space at the rear and the sides for adequate circulation of air. Either side may be restricted to have as little as 1 inch (25 mm) space.
Figure
The power supply can be mounted in a standard 19 inch rack panel or enclosure. Rack mounting accessories for this unit are listed on page 12, under Options of Chapter 1. Complete installation instructions are included with each rack mounting kit. Instrument support rails are required for
