1-2.4 Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the equipment in the presence of
flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any
electrical equipment in such an environment
constitutes a definite safety hazard.
1-3 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
You should observe several precautions when
handling this equipment.
WARNING
The Analyzer is designed to be operated
with a ground connection to the chassis via
a three-wire power connection. If the unit is
not properly grounded while operating from
an AC power source, the voltage potential
between it and ground may cause an electri-
cal shock.
CAUTION
This equipment contains parts that are
subject to damage by static electricity.
While there is normally no need for op-
erator access to any internal components,
take proper precautions in handling should
the need arise. Refer to Appendix C for safe
handling procedures.
1-3.1 Analyzer Operating Voltage
Before plugging in an AC power cable, verify
that the selector switch located on the underside
of the unit is set to the correct operating
voltage. If using a battery pack, the cover must
be removed and the internal voltage selector
switch set to the correct position.
1-3.2 DC Power Source
The DC power input is intended to be
connected
to the Battery Pack accessory, or
from a vehicle battery. Connecting the
Analyzer DC input to a Power Supply can, in
the event of a power supply fault, cause
hazardous voltages to be present on the low
voltage circuits of the Analyzer.
1-3.3 Maximum DVM Input Voltages
To ensure the safety of the user, the voltages
being measured at the DVM input must be kept
below Hazardous Live limits. The maximum
input levels are: 30 V r.m.s and 42.4 V peak or
60 V d.c.
