SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This chapter contains important safety
instructions that you must follow during
operation and storage. Read the following before
any operation to ensure your safety and to keep
the instrument in the best possible condition.
Safety Symbols
These safety symbols may appear in this manual or on the
instrument.
WARNING
Warning: Identifies conditions or practices that
could result in injury or loss of life.
CAUTION
Caution: Identifies conditions or practices that
could result in damage to the ASR-6000 or to other
properties.
DANGER High Voltage
Attention Refer to the Manual

Do not dispose electronic equipment as unsorted
municipal waste. Please use a separate collection
facility or contact the supplier from which this
instrument was purchased.
Safety Guidelines
General
Guideline
CAUTION
Do not place any heavy object on the ASR-6000.
Avoid severe impact or rough handling that
leads to damaging the ASR-6000.
Do not discharge static electricity to the ASR-
6000.
Use only mating connectors, not bare wires, for
the terminals.
Do not block the cooling fan opening.
Do not disassemble the ASR-6000 unless you are
qualified.
If the equipment is used in a manner not
specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Due to the fact that ASR-6000 unit weights greater
than 18kg, please resort to the standard kit GRA-
451-E for transport or remove the unit by at least
two persons in case of danger occurred.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Power Supply
WARNING
AC Input voltage range:
200 Vac to 240 Vac ±10 %
phase voltage (Delta: L-L, Y: L-N)
Frequency: 47 ~ 63 Hz
To avoid electrical shock connect the protective
grounding conductor of the AC power cord to
an earth ground.
The power switch that is included in the
instrument is not considered a disconnecting
device.
The permanently connected power input is used
as the disconnecting device and shall remain
readily operable.
a. A switch or circuit-breaker must be included
in the installation
b. It must be suitably located and easily reached
c. It must be marked as the disconnecting
device for the equipment.
d. It shall be located near the equipment
Do not position the equipment so that it is
difficult to operate the disconnecting device.
Ask for professional technician for installation.
It requires 200Vac input condition and the
maximum input current [30A (ASR-6450), 40A
(ASR-6600)], which conforms to cord diameter
by local regulations.
Breaker, of which the specification is required to
larger than 30A (ASR-6450), 40A (ASR-6600)
individually, should be in the near proximity of unit.
The ASR-6000 model shall be employed in rack-
based applications and it shall not be connected
to external cord directly. In addition, installation
shall be done by a qualified person in
accordance with local regulations. The ASR-6000
model is not to be used in standalone scenario.

Cleaning the ASR-
6000
Disconnect the circuit-breaker or permanently
connected power input before cleaning.
Use a soft cloth dampened in a solution of mild
detergent and water. Do not spray any liquid.
Do not use chemicals containing harsh material
such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and acetone.
Operation
Environment
Location: Indoor, no direct sunlight, dust free,
almost non-conductive pollution (Note below)
Relative Humidity: 20%~ 80%, no condensation
Altitude: < 2000m
Temperature: 0°C to 40°C
(Pollution Degree) EN 61010-1:2010 specifies the pollution degrees
and their requirements as follows. The ASR-6000 falls under degree 2.
Pollution refers to “addition of foreign matter, solid, liquid, or
gaseous (ionized gases), that may produce a reduction of dielectric
strength or surface resistivity”.
Pollution degree 1: No pollution or only dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.
Pollution degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused
by condensation must be expected.
Pollution degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-
conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to
condensation which is expected. In such conditions, equipment
is normally protected against exposure to direct sunlight,
precipitation, and full wind pressure, but neither temperature
nor humidity is controlled.
Storage
environment
Location: Indoor
Temperature: -10°C to 70°C
Relative Humidity: ≤90%, no condensation
Disposal
Do not dispose this instrument as unsorted
municipal waste. Please use a separate collection
facility or contact the supplier from which this
instrument was purchased. Please make sure
discarded electrical waste is properly recycled to
reduce environmental impact.
