Electrical Safety Information

The following safety precautions must be observed while operating and

servicing the unit. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific

indications elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of intended

use of the unit. EXFO assumes no liability for the user’s failure to comply

with these requirements.

 This unit is intended for indoor use only.

 Only fuses with the required rated current and specified type (IEC,

250 V, 2 A, fast blow, 0.197 in x 0.787 in/5 mm x 20 mm) may be used

for replacement. Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse

holders.

 The power cable of the FLS-2600B Tunable Laser Source is the most

effective method to turn off the unit if a problem should occur.

 Capacitors inside the unit may be charged, even if the unit has been

disconnected from its electrical supply.

 Before turning on the unit, all grounding terminals, extensions cords,

and devices connected to it should also be connected to a protective

ground via a ground socket. Any interruption of the protective

grounding is a potential shock hazard and may cause personal injury.

 Whenever the ground protection is impaired, the unit is not to be used,

and must be secured against any accidental or unintended operation.

 Unit covers cannot be removed during operation.

 Any adjustments, maintenance, and repair of opened units under

voltage should be avoided and carried out only by skilled personnel

aware of the hazards involved. Do not attempt internal service or

adjustment unless a person qualified to perform first aid is present.

Do not replace any components while power cable is connected.
