Installation and Removal of SLD-Series Module

Unless the SLM mainframe and SLD-series Electronic load module were purchased separately,
the SLD-series Electronic load module should be installed in the mainframe before shipment
from Sorensen.

The SLD-series Electronic load module operates in SLM mainframe for front panel and remote
control feature, but cannot be operated without the mainframe.

When you want to install or remove the SLD-series load module into or from the SLM
mainframe for configuration or reconfiguration purposes, please follow the procedures in
Section 2.1.1 or 2.1.2.

CAUTION: PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE LOAD.

Do NOT apply voltage or current

with chassis power switched OFF. Turn ON the power switch to the load PRIOR to
applying voltage or current to the input terminals (i.e., before turning on the power
supply under test).

2.1.1 Installation

1. Turn the chassis power OFF before inserting the SLD-series load module, or damage

may occur to the plug-in module circuitry.

2. Align the upper and lower grooves of the mainframe with the upper and lower guides of

the selected compartment.

3. Push the SLD-series load module in and press firmly on the binding posts of the front

panel to seat the circuit board in the interconnecting jack.

4. Fasten the screw on the lower and right hand side corner of the SLD-series front panel

with screwdriver, the screw location is shown on Figure 2-2.

5. Turn the chassis power ON until all of the electronic modules are completely installed.

2.1.2 Removal

1. Turn the chassis power OFF first; otherwise, damage may occur to the plug-in circuitry.

2. Loosen the screw on the front panel of SLD-series with screwdriver.

3. Turn the adjustment knob of the black binding post counter clockwise until the

adjustment knob is fully moved out; Then pull on the black adjustment knob of binding
post until the interconnecting jack disengages and SLD-series load module will slide out.
