Safety Summary
General Safety Precautions
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.
Before operation, review the instrument and manual for safety markings and instructions. You must follow these
to ensure safe operation and to maintain the instrument in safe condition.
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.
Environment 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 95% 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 all safety precautions are taken. The power cable inlet of the instrument serves as a device to
disconnect from the mains in case of hazard. The instrument must be positioned so that the operator can easily
access the power cable inlet. When the instrument is rack mounted the rack must be provided with an easily
accessible mains switch.
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.
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 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.
