Important Safety Instructions

Before applying power to the system, verify that your product is configured properly for your particular
application.



Only qualified personnel who deal with attendant hazards in power supplies, are allowed to perform installation
and servicing.

Ensure that the AC power line ground is connected properly to the Power Rack input connector or chassis.
Similarly, other power ground lines including those to application and maintenance equipment must be
grounded properly for both personnel and equipment safety.

Always ensure that facility AC input power is de-energized prior to connecting or disconnecting any cable.

In normal operation, the operator does not have access to hazardous voltages within the chassis. However,
depending on the user’s application configuration, HIGH VOLTAGES HAZARDOUS TO HUMAN SAFETY
may be normally generated on the output terminals. The customer/user must ensure that the output power lines
are labeled properly as to the safety hazards and that any inadvertent contact with hazardous voltages is
eliminated.

Guard against risks of electrical shock during open cover checks by not touching any portion of the electrical
circuits. Even when power is off, capacitors may retain an electrical charge. Use safety glasses during open
cover checks to avoid personal injury by any sudden component failure.

Neither AMETEK Programmable Power Inc., San Diego, California, USA, nor any of the subsidiary sales
organizations can accept any responsibility for personnel, material or inconsequential injury, loss or damage
that results from improper use of the equipment and accessories.
