SAFETY GUIDELINES
Review the following information before attempting to install and operate this
unit.
Rules for Safe Installation and Operation
Please note the following:
• Do not attempt to install or operate this equipment without proper training.
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside the HPG generator. Refer
servicing to trained service personnel (see “Customer Support” on
page 6-21).
• Ensure that this unit is properly grounded (see also “Grounding” on
page 5-3).
• Ensure that all cables are properly connected (see also “HPG Generator
User Port” on page 4-4 and “HPG Generator Host Port Options” on
page 4-21).
• Verify that input line voltage and current capacity are within specifications
before turning on the power supplies (see “Electrical Specifications” on
page 3-9).
• Use proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions.
• Always be careful around this equipment.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury, and/or property damage.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided,
could result in minor or moderate injury, and/or damage to property.

Conditions of Use
To comply with the stated directives and standards, you must meet the
following conditions of use:
• Before making any other connection to this device, connect the auxiliary
Protective Earth ground terminal to a local earth ground with a copper wire
thatissized accordingtotheapplicablerequirements(see“Specifications”
on page 3-1).
• Install and operate this device in an overvoltage category II installation
only.
• Install and operate this device only in a pollution degree 2 or better
environment, which means an indoor location such as a computer room,
office, or factory floor where only nonconductive pollution occurs during
operation. Occasionally, condensation causes temporary conductivity
when the device is not operating.
• Install this device so that it is fully enclosed by a rack or other enclosure.
The rack or enclosure must be metal and either reinforced or of sufficient
thickness to resist the following tests:
4A steady force of 445 N, applied through a steel hemisphere 12.7 mm
in diameter
4An impact of 7 J applied by dropping or swinging a 0.53 kg, 50 mm
diameter steel sphere
• Following the tests, there must still be a minimum clearance of 12.7 mm
between the rack or enclosure and the power supply. There shall be no
deformation of the power supply.
• You must install and operate this device with a disconnect switch that
conforms to the applicable requirements. The switch must be easily
accessible and near the device.
• The ON/OFF power switch does not completely disconnect the Mains.
You must install an external switch to completely disconnect Mains.
• Use only shielded cables on the Host (RS-232, PROFIBUS, or Ethernet)
and User Port connectors.
• Install this device so that the input power (Mains) connection is
inaccessible to the user.
RISK OF DEATH OR BODILY INJURY. Disconnect and lockout/tagout all
sources of input power before working on this unit or anything
connected to it.
