Warning
05& 3:5 Power Supply has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for the CE regulation. Also, it is RoHS compliant to
deliver confident product which meets the environmental directive. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the instrument series is operated in a commercial environment. This
instrument series used together with power supply unit generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this instrument series in a residential area
is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at their expense. Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment. It is strongly recommended for the
user to read the following points carefully before operating this equipment.
1. Read and follow the manual instructions carefully.
2. Do not alter the equipment. Failure to follow these directions could result
in personal and/or laboratory hazards, as well as invalidate equipment
warranty.
3. Use a properly grounded electrical outlet with correct voltage and current
handling capacity.
4. Disconnect from power supply before maintenance and servicing. Refer
servicing to qualified personnel.
5. Never use this instrument series without having the safety cover correctly
in position.
6. Do not use the unit if there is any sign of damage to the external tank or
cover. Replace damaged parts.
7. Do not use in the presence of flammable or combustible material; fire or
explosion may result. This device contains components which may ignite
such materials.
8. Refer maintenance and servicing to qualified personnel.
9. Ensure that the system is connected to electrical service according to
local and national electrical codes. Failure to make a proper connection
may create fire or shock hazard.
10. Use appropriate materials and operate correctly to avoid possible hazards

4
of explosion, implosion or release of toxic or flammable gases arising from
overheated materials.
11. The unit shall be operated only by qualified personnel.
Safety Information
Use high level of precaution against any electrical device. Before connecting
the electrical supply, check to see if the supply voltage is within the range
stated at the rating label, and see to it that the device be seated firmly. Place
the unit in a safe and dry location; it must NOT touch the surrounding. Follow
the safety precautions for chemicals / dangerous materials. If needed, please
contact qualified service representative or PUF#PUFODEFRP
Environmental Conditions
Ensure the instrument is installed and operated strictly under the following
conditions:
1. Indoor use only
2. ≤95% RH
3. 75 kPa – 106 kPa
4. Altitude must not exceed 2000 meters
5. 4℃~ 40℃operating temperature
6. Pollution degree: 2
7. Mains supply voltage fluctuations up to ±10% of the normal voltage
Avoiding Electrical Shock
Follow the guidelines below to ensure safe operation of the unit.
The 3:5 Power Supply has been designed to utilize shielded wires thus
minimizing any potential shock hazard to the user. 05& recommends
against the use of unshielded wires.
To avoid electrical shock:
1. In the event of solution spilling on the instrument, it must be dried out for at
least 2 hours and restored to NORMAL CONDITION before each
operation.
2. Never connect or disconnect wires loading from the power jacks when the
red indicator light of power switch is on.
3. WAIT at least 5 seconds after stopping a run before handling output leads
or any connected apparatus.
4. ALWAYS make sure that your hands, work area, and instruments are clean
and dry before making any connections or operating the power supply.
5. ONLY connect the power cord to a properly grounded AC outlet.

Avoiding Damage to the Instrument
1. Do not attempt to operate the device if damage is suspected.
2. Protect this unit from physical damage, corrosive agents and extreme
temperatures (direct sunlight, etc.).
3. For proper ventilation and safety concerns, keep at least 10 cm of space
behind the instrument, and at least 5 cm of space on each side.
4. Use high level of precaution against the damages on the unit.
5. Do not operate the unit out of environmental conditions addressed
above.
6. Prior to applying any cleaning or decontamination methods other than
manufacturer’s recommendation, users should check with the
manufacturer’s instruction to see if the proposed method will damage the
equipment.
7. Do not operate the power supplies in high humidity environments (>
95%), or where condensation may occur.
8. To avoid condensation after operating the power supply in a cold room,
wrap the unit in a plastic bag and allow at least 2 hours for the unit to
equilibrate to room temperature before removing the bag and operating
the unit.
Equipment Operation
Follow the guidelines below to ensure safe operation of the unit:
1. NEVER access dangerous chemicals or other materials to prevent possible
hazard of explosion and damage.
2. Do not operate the unit without lids or covers to prevent possible hazards.
3. A temporary conductivity caused by condensation might occur even though
this series is rated Pollution Degree 2 in accordance with IEC 664.
