CERTIFICATION
Protek certifies that this product was thoroughly tested, inspected and found to meet published specifications when
it is shipped out of the factory. Protek further certifies that its calibration measurements are traceable to the ITRI
(Industrial Technology Research Institute/Center for Measurement Standards), and to the extent allowed by ITRI's
calibration facility.
WARRANTY PERIOD - TWO YEARS
This product is warranted for the defects in materials and workmanship for a period of Two YEARS from date of
shipment. During the warranty period, Protek will at its option, either repair or replace the products, which are proved
to be defective. Protek is not liable for incidental/consequential damages and errors caused by improper use.
WARRANTY SERVICE
Protek will repair or replace the product during the warranty period and it should be returned to your nearest Protek
authorized service center. Buyer shall prepay shipment charges to service center. After reparation, the service
center will pay shipment charges and return the product to the buyer. Buyer should prepay the freight if the product
is returned to Protek International Sale Dept. The RMA (Return Material Authorization Number) must be obtained
directly from the Protek for warranty repairs. No liability will be accepted if the returned product is without such
permission.
LIMITATION OF WARRANTY
The foregoing warranty shall not apply to any defect that is resulted from improper or inadequate maintenance by
the buyer. Protek does not warrant supplied products or interfaces that are unauthorized modification, misused,
operated outside of the specification, repaired, or maintained at the improper site. No other warranty is expressed or
implied. Protek specifically disclaims the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
No part of this publication may be produced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form, or by means,
electronic, mechanical photocopying, recording or otherwise without prior permission of Protek.
TRADEMARK INFORMATION
Protek power supply is a trademark of GSI.
CAUTION
The following safety precautions 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. Protek shall
not be liable for user’s failure to comply with these requirements.
GROUNDING
To minimize shock hazard, the product chassis must be connected to an electrical ground. The product 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 a personal
injury.

OUTPUT TERMINALS GROUNDING
There is a potential shock hazard at the RS-485 and the IEEE ports when power supplies are used with rated or
combined voltage that is greater than 400V and the Positive Output of the Power Supply is grounded. Do not
connect the Positive Output to ground when the RS-485 or IEEE-488 is used.
The output terminal can be connected by external conductor, be aware that only 105 deg conductor can be used.
FUSES
Authorized Protek service personnel must change fuses only. For continued protection against risk of fire, replace
only with the same type and rating of fuse.
INPUT RATINGS
Do not use AC supply, which exceeds the input voltage and frequency rating of this instrument. The input voltage
and frequency rating of the ProtekTM power supply series is: 100-240Vac (190-240Vac for 3000W models), 50/60Hz.
For safety reasons, the mains supply voltage fluctuations should not exceed +/-10% of nominal voltage. When
considering the IEC 60320-1, the appliance inlet temperature limit relevant to mains supply voltage fluctuations
-10%, the maximum output power can be up to 750W at AC 100V input and decreasing linearity to 600W at 90V AC
input.
LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove the cover of the product. Non- Protek qualified personnel allow no internal
adjustment or component replacement. 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 & MODIFICATIONS
Only authorized Protek service personnel is allowed to make parts substitutions and modifications. For repairs or
modifications, the instrument must be returned to an authorized Protek service facility.
CONDENSATION
If the environment temperature of the power supply is changed suddenly (for example the unit is moved from a cold
place to a warm place or using a heater in winter) the water dropletmay form inside the power supply. Condensation
may also occur if the power supply is exposed to the direct wind from an air-conditioner.
To avoid the harmfulness due to condensation, please let the power supply stand at room temperature for one or
two hours without connecting to the input mains power.
