General safety regulations for operating electrical devices should be followed. AC MAINS CONNECTION: While working with the npi systems, always adhere to the appropriate safety measures for handling electronic devices. Before using any device please read manuals and instructions carefully.
2.1. General System Description / Operation The npi EPMS-07 is a modular system for processing of bioelectrical signals in electrophysiology. The system is housed in a 19” rackmount cabinet (3U) has room for up to 7 plug-in units. The plug-in units are connected to power by a bus at the rear panel.

System Grounding EPMS-07 The 19" cabinet is grounded by the power cable through the ground pin of the mains connector (= protective earth).
The DPA-2FX differential amplifier/filter is a plug-in unit for the npi EPMS-07 modular system. The DPA-2FX is designed to amplify and filter small bio-electrical signals. The input voltage range is ±12 V, the inputs are protected up to 15 V. 2 overload-LEDs indicate if the linear region of the amplifier is exceeded.
