All major electrical components used in the instrument meet UL, CE, CSA, or TUV certification. Usage
is as defined by the manufacturer, to assure safe performance. Wire sizes, colors, and terminations
meet CE requirements. All connectors meet CE safety standards. Shielding is provided to avoid user
contact with hazardous voltages during use of the instrument. Additional safeguards have been
taken to avoid defeating these shields and interlocks.
Circuit boards and electrical signal lines have been designed for minimum radiated electrical
emissions, and are designed for superior immunity to outside electrical interference.
All sources of thermal energy have been evaluated. The instrument design is meant to dissipate any
thermal energy. A circuit interlock is provided as a backup to primary thermal controls. The
instrument has been tested at maximum operating temperature, with all functions active, as a means
of verifying thermal dissipation under worst-case conditions.
Normal care should be exercised by the user to avoid conditions which might be deemed hazardous.
