Measurement Category: None (not intended for Measurement Category II, III or
IV). (That is, the E7515B input ports are not designed to measure hazardous
voltages, or to be connected to equipment that is not protected from hazardous
transient voltages.)
This is a Safety Class 1 Product (provided with a protective earth ground
incorporated in the power cords). The mains plugs shall only be inserted in
socket outlets provided with a protective earth contact. Any interruption of the
protective conductor inside or outside of the instrument is likely to make the
instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
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. Install the instrument so that the
detachable power cords ares readily identifiable and easily reached by the
operator. The detachable power cords are the instrument disconnecting device.
They disconnect the mains circuits from the mains supply before other parts of
the instrument. The front panel switch is only a standby switch and is not a LINE
switch. Alternatively, an externally installed switch or circuit breaker (which is
readily identifiable and is easily reached by the operator) may be used as a
disconnecting device.
This instrument has an auto-ranging line voltage input. Ensure the supply
voltage is within the specified range and voltage fluctuations do not exceed 10
percent of the nominal supply voltage.
When installing the product in a cabinet the convection into and out of the
product must not be restricted. The ambient temperature (outside the cabinet)
must be less than the maximum operating temperature of the product by 4
° C
for every 100 watts dissipated in the cabinet. If the total power dissipated in
the cabinet is greater than 800 watts, then forced convection must be used. It
is your responsibility to ensure the ambient temperature does not exceed the
rated ambient temperature stated in the specification.
The Mains wiring and connectors shall be compatible with the connector used in
the premise electrical system. Failure, to ensure adequate earth grounding by
not using the correct components may cause product damage, and serious
injury.
Use the Keysight supplied power cords or cords with the same or better
electrical rating.
