Inspection

As soon as the instrument is unpacked, inspect any damage that might have occurred in
shipping. Keep all packing materials in case that the instrument has to be returned. If any
damage is found, please file a claim to the carrier immediately. Do not return the instrument
to Chroma without prior approval.

Installing

The Electric Loads can operate well within the temperature range from 0 to 40 ºC. However,
you must install the Electric Load in an area that has enough space around the unit for
adequate air flowing through and escaping from the back.
2.3.1

Changing Line Voltage

The Electronic Load can operate with a 115/230 Vac input as indicated on the left hand side
of the unit (facing the unit). If the factory set voltage does not correspond to your nominal
line voltage, set the switch to the correct line voltage as shown in Figure 2-1 before plugging
in the power cord and turning on the power.
Notice
Line fuses do not need to be changed when the line voltage is changed. The line fuses will
protect the Electronic Load for incorrect voltage setting.
