10.1 Safety notes
The following safety precautions should be observed before using this product and any associated
instrumentation.
This product is intended for use by qualified personnel who recognize shock hazards and are
familiar with the safety precautions required to avoid possible injury. Read and follow all installation,
operation, and maintenance information carefully before using the product.
If this product is not used as specified, the protection provided by the equipment could be
impaired. This product must be used in a normal condition (in which all means for protection are
intact) only.
The types of product users are:
Responsible body is the individual or group responsible for the use and maintenance of
equipment, for ensuring that the equipment is operated within its specifications and operating
limits, and for ensuring operators are adequately trained.
Operators use the product for its intended function. They must be trained in electrical safety
procedures and proper use of the card. They must be protected from electric shock and
contact with hazardous live circuits.
Service personnel are trained to work on live circuits, perform safe installations, and repair
products. Only properly trained service personnel may perform installation and service
procedures.
Operator is responsible to maintain safe operating conditions. To ensure safe operating
conditions, cards should not be operated beyond the full temperature range specified in
the datasheet. Exceeding safe operating conditions can result in shorter lifespans,
improper card performance and user safety issues. When the cards are in use and
operation within the specified full temperature range is not maintained, card surface
temperatures may exceed safe handling conditions which can cause discomfort or burns if
touched. In the event of a card exceeding the full temperature range, always allow the card
to cool before touching or removing cards from host computer or chassis.
Exercise extreme caution when a shock hazard is present. Lethal voltage may be present on cable
connector jacks or test fixtures. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that a
shock hazard exists when voltage levels greater than 30V RMS, 42.4V peak, or 60V DC are
present. A good safety practice is to expect that hazardous voltage is present in any unknown circuit
before measuring.
