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.
