ESD (electrostatic
discharge)
All electrically powered equipment can be dangerous. At BARCO we have taken
great care to ensure safety during the design and production of our equipment. Incor-
rect installation, handling, or interference can, however, impair the safety.
This product complies with the requirements of the directive 73/23/EEC.
This product requires protective earthing. With 110/230 V AC this is normally
obtained by the use of the supplied 3-wire power cable.
During installation, observe the following rules:
• Establish a separate safety earth connection if the power installation of the build-
ing does not have a direct connection to earth.
• Ensure that the unit has the correct line voltage rating.
• Do not use an extension cord (power cable) without a protective conductor.
• Do not remove the covers.
Only trained service personnel should attempt to dismantle and repair the unit.
During service observe the following rules:
• Before removing any covers, switch off the power and remove the line cable
from the unit.
Observe: Capacitors inside the unit may hold dangerous charges for a consider-
able time after the unit has been switched off.
• If it is necessary to replace components in the line connected circuits, use only
new parts of the correct and specified type.
• Take care to maintain or re-establish the protective earthing of the unit during
service or repair.
• Do not remove any warning labels. Replace damaged or illegible warning labels
with new ones.
Electronic products contain electrostatic sensitive components. Observe the follow-
ing rule:
• Do not attempt to open a unit without proper precautions against electrostatic dis-
charge, i.e. use a wrist strap and conductive work-bench surface.
Reason: The unit may fail or be degraded.
