Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be
observed during all phases of operation of this instrument.
Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific
warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety
standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the
instrument. Agilent Technologies Inc. assumes no liability
for the customer's failure to comply with these
requirements.
General
This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument (provided with
a protective earth terminal). The protective features of this
product may be impaired if it is used in a manner not
specified in the operation instructions.
All Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) used in this product are
Class 1 LEDs as per IEC 60825-1.
Environmental Conditions
This instrument is intended for indoor use in an
installation category II, pollution degree 2 environment. It
is designed to operate at a maximum relative humidity of
80% and at altitudes of up to 2000 meters. Refer to the
specifications tables for the ac mains voltage requirements
and ambient operating temperature range.
Before Applying Power
Verify that the product is set to match the available line
voltage, the correct fuse is installed, and all safety
precautions are taken.
Ground the Instrument
To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis and
cover must be connected to an electrical protective earth
ground. The instrument must be connected to the ac
power mains through a grounded power cable, with the
ground wire firmly connected to an electrical ground
(safety ground) at the power outlet. Any interruption of
the protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection of
the protective earth terminal will cause a potential shock
hazard that could result in personal injury.
Fuses
Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and
specified type (normal blow, time delay, etc.) should be
used. Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse
holders. To do so could cause a shock or fire hazard.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of
flammable gases or fumes.
Do Not Remove the Instrument Cover
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers.
Component replacement and internal adjustments must be
made only by qualified service personnel.
Instruments that appear damaged or defective should be
made inoperative and secured against unintended
operation until they can be repaired by qualified service
personnel.
