Warranty Information
Certification
We certify that this product met its published specifications at time of shipment from the factory.
Warranty
This hardware product is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of
ONE year from date of delivery. IT8500 series electronic load for use with a hardware product and
when properly installed on that hardware product, are warranted not to fail to execute their
programming instructions due to defects in material and workmanship for a period of 90 days from
date of delivery. During the warranty period our company will either repair or replace products which
prove to be defective. Our company does not warranty that the operation for the software firmware
or hardware shall be uninterrupted or error free.
For warranty service, with the exception of warranty options, this product must be returned to a
service facility designated by our company. Customer shall prepay shipping charges by (and shall
pay all duty and taxes) for products returned to our place for warranty service. Our company shall
pay for return of products to Customer.
Limitation of Warranty
The foregoing warranty shall not apply to defects resulting from improper or inadequate
maintenance by the Customer, Customer-supplied software or interfacing, unauthorized
modification or misuse, operation outside of the environmental specifications for the product, or
improper site preparation and maintenance.
Assistance
The above statements apply only to the standard product warranty. Warranty options product
maintenance agreements and customer assistance agreements are also available.
Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation of this
instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this
manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the instrument .We
assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these requirements.
Environmental Conditions
This instrument is intended for indoor use. Pollution degree 2 environments. It is designed to
operate at a maximum relative humidity of 95% and at altitudes of up to 2000 meters. Refer to the
specifications tables for the ac mains voltage requirements and ambient operating temperature
range.
Before Applying Power
Verify that all safety precautions are taken. Note the instrument's external markings described under
"Safety Symbols".

4
Ground the Instrument
This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument (provided with a protective earth terminal). To minimize
shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cover must be connected to an electrical ground. The
instrument must be connected to the ac power mains through a grounded power cable, with the
ground wire firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. Note: Any
interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection of the protective earth terminal
will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury.
DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of fumes or flammable gases.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers except as instructed in this Guide for
installing or removing electronic load modules. Component replacement and internal adjustments
must be made only by qualified service personnel. Do not replace components with power cable
connected. Under certain conditions dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable
removed. To avoid injuries always disconnect power, discharge circuits, and remove external
voltage sources before touching components.
DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE
Do not try to do some internal service or adjustment unless another person capable of rendering
first aid resuscitation is present.

Caution (refer to accompanying documents)
The WARNING sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure, practice, or the like, which, if
not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in personal injury. Do not proceed beyond a
WARNING sign until the indicated conditions are fully understood and met.
The CAUTION sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to an operating procedure, or the like, which,
if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in damage to or destruction of part or all of the
