The following safety precaution must be observed during all phases of operation, service and repair
of this equipment. Failure to comply with the safety precautions or warnings in this document
violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of this equipment and may
impair the built-in protections within.
Nemic-Lambda shall not be liable for user’s failure to comply with these requirements.
The Genesys power supply series has been evaluated to INSTALLATION CATEGORY II.
Installation category (over voltage category) II: local level, appliances, portable equipment etc.. With
smaller transient over voltage than Installation Category (over voltage category) III.
This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument. To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis must
be connected to an electrical ground. The instrument must be connected to the AC power supply
mains through a three conductor power cable, with the ground wire firmly connected to an electrical
ground (safety ground) at the power outlet.
For instruments designed to be hard-wired to the supply mains, the protective earth terminal must
be connected to the safety electrical ground before another connection is made. Any interruption of
the protective ground conductor, or disconnection of the protective earth terminal will cause a
potential shock hazard that might cause personal injury.
There is a potential shock hazard at the RS232/485 and the IEEE ports when using power supplies
with rated or combined voltage greater than 400V and the Positive Output of the Power Supply is
grounded. Do Not connect the Positive Output to ground when using the RS232/485 or IEEE.
Fuses must be changed by authorized Nemic-Lambda service personnel only. For continued
protection against risk of fire, replace only with the same type and rating of fuse. Refer to
maintenance instructions in chapter 9 for fuses rating.
Do not use AC supply which exceeds the input voltage and frequency rating of this instrument. The
input voltage and frequency rating of the Genesys power supply series is:100-240V~, 50/60Hz.
For safety reasons, the mains supply voltage fluctuations should not exceed +/-10% of nominal
voltage.
Operating personnel must not remove the instrument cover. No internal adjustment or component
replacement is allowed by non-Nemic-Lambda qualified personnel. Never replace components with
power cable connected. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power , discharge circuits and remove
external voltage source before touching components.
Parts substitutions and modifications are allowed by authorized Nemic-Lambda service personnel
only. For repairs or modifications, the instrument must be returned to Nemic-Lambda service facility.

Analog inputs and outputs are provided at the rear panel for analog control of the power
supply. The output voltage and the current limit can be programmed by analog voltage or by
resistor, and can be monitored by analog voltage. The power supply output can be remotely
set to On or Off and analog signals monitor the proper operation of the power supply and the
mode of operation (CV/CC).
Genesys power supplies of the same output voltage and current rating can be paralleled in
master-slave configuration with automatic current sharing to increase power available.
Output connections are made to rear panel bus-bars for models up to 60V and to a 4-
terminal wire clamp connector for models above 60V rated output voltage. Either the
positive or negative terminal may be grounded or the output may be floated. Models up to
60VDC Rated Output shall not float outputs more than +/- 60VDC above/below chassis
ground. Models >60VDC Rated Output shall not float outputs more than +/-600VDC
above/below chassis ground. Contact factory for assistance with higher float voltage
applications.

3.3 INITIAL INSPECTION
3.4 RACK MOUNTING
This chapter contains instructions for initial inspection, preparation for use and repackaging for
shipment. Connection to PC, setting the communication port and linking Genesys power supplies
are described in Chapter 7.
Genesys power supplies generate magnetic fields which
might affect the operation of other instruments. If your
equipment is susceptible to magnetic fields, do not position
it adjacent to the power supply.
n order to be operational the power supply must be connected to an appropriate AC source. The
AC source voltage should be within the power supply specification. Do not apply power before
reading, Section 3.6 and 3.7.
Table 3-1 below, describes the basic setup procedure. Follow the instructions in Table 3-1 in the
sequence given to prepare the power supply for use.
Step no. Item Description Reference
Prior to shipment this power supply was inspected and found free of mechanical or electrical
defects. Upon unpacking of the power supply, inspect for any damage which may have occured in
transit.
The inspection should confirm that there is no exterior damage to the power supply such as broken
knobs or connectors and that the front panel and meters face are not scratched or cracked. Keep all
packing material until the inspection has been completed. If damage is detected, file a claim with
carrier immediately and notify the Lambda sales or service facility nearest you.
The Genesys power supply series is designed to fit in a standard 19” equipment rack.
1. Use the front panel rack-mount brackets to install the power supply in the rack.
2. Use a support bar to provide adequate support for the rear of the power supply. Do not obstruct
the air exhaust at the rear panel of the unit.
