A-3. Safety Notice
 EPS-300 X power supply uses high voltage output. To minimize the risk of electrical
shock to the user the following guidelines should be observed and followed when using
EPS-300 X power supply. Always read the product manual before operating the unit.
 EPS-300 X power supply shall be operated at temperature between 0
℃
and 40
℃
, with
relative humidity between 10% and 90% non-condensing. Do not operate the EPS-300 X
power supply in extreme humidity or where condensation can short the internal electrical
circuits.
 Be sure that there is at least 6 cm clearance around the EPS-300 X power supply to
ensure adequate cooling.
 Always connect the power supply using the AC power cord provided with the power
supply or a similar 3-prong, grounded AC outlet.
 Use other than C.B.S. Scientific’s electrical cable with plugs or banana jacks is done at
the user’s own risk when connecting the external instrument to the power supply’s high
voltage output jacks. While doing so, always grasp the plug by the molded support at the
rear of the plug. Do not grasp the individual prong ends.
 When taking the power supply into a cold room, the unit can be operated immediately.
However, when removing the power supply from the cold room, let the unit equilibrate to
room temperature for a minimum of two hours before using it.
 Never connect a high voltage output lead to earth ground. This defeats the floating
electrical isolation of the power supply and exposes the user to potentially lethal high
voltages.
