SAFETY OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USE
Review this manual and insure that all conditions are compatible with
the amplifier's specifications. Safe operation may be impaired if this
equipment is not used as intended.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This symbol is marked in the manual and denotes important safety
operation instructions. Please read carefully before continuing.
This equipment is suitable for a wide variety of scientific, industrial,
laboratory and communication applications where high levels of
electromagnetic Radio Frequency (RF) energy are required.
Therefore, the output of the amplifier must be terminated to an
appropriate load, such as a high power attenuator, dummy load, a
communication or radiation antenna. User must insure that radiated
energy do not violate
regulatory levels of electromagnetic interference.
PROTECTIVE GROUND
This symbol is marked on the equipment and denotes protective ground
terminal.
This amplifier includes protective ground terminal. The equipment
shouldn't be used if this protection is impaired. The supplied power cord
must be used along with an uninterrupted external power source.
HAZARDOUS LINE AND RF VOLTAGES
This symbol is marked on the equipment where dangerous voltages are
present. Use extreme caution.
Both RF input and output connectors should be terminated prior to the
application of the external AC source. Otherwise, contact with the
RF output center pin can be dangerous. Place the amplifier in the
OFF position prior to connecting and disconnecting RF output load.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
This symbol is marked on the equipment where ESD sensitive devices
are present. Do not handle without the proper protection.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance, repair and calibration must be performed by qualified
personnel only. Contact with the internal amplifier components maybe
dangerous even when the equipment is in the OFF position.
CAUTION This denotes a condition that may cause damage to the Amplifier if
procedure is not correctly performed. Do not proceed until the
indicated conditions are met.
FORCED AIR COOLING
Do not block the inlet and outlet of the internal cooling blowers.
Otherwise damage may result to the amplifier.
