Preface
CONVENTIONS USED
Throughout this manual there are safety warnings. To classify the degree of danger in
each of these situations, the following notation is used:
WARNING: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
CAUTION: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury.
NOTICE: Indicates a property damage risk.
In addition, notes give additional information or advice to get the best results.
SAFETY INFORMATION
The µPG 501 is fused for 10A. Electrical voltages of up to 230VAC and 120V DC are
present within the system when it is connected and turned on.
WARNING: Removing any cover of the µPG 501 apart from those explicitly stated in
this manual can make lethal voltages accessible. Only Heidelberg
Instruments service engineers or trained personnel should perform any
tasks that include the removal of such a cover while the system is
energized.
CAUTION: The µPG 501 utilizes a high power LED as exposure light source.
Opening of the optics cover gives access to a radiation level that is
potentially harmful to the eye.
The optics cover may only be opened by Heidelberg Instruments service
engineers, or trained personnel! Unauthorized opening of the optics cover
leads to immediate loss of warranty.
