You should provide uninterruptible safety earth ground from the main power source to the product input wiring terminals, power cord, or supplied power cord set. See the ETS-Lindgren Product Information Bulletin for safety, regulatory, and other product marking information.
Before servicing: contact ETS-Lindgren – servicing (or modifying) the unit by yourself may void your warranty. If you attempt to service the unit by yourself, disconnect all electrical power before starting.
INTRODUCTION ETS-Lindgren Filter Panels are electromagnetically isolated Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Filter cabinets with EMI isolated filter elements. Filters designated as -TS are equipped with transient protection devices (MOVs). The filter is designed to filter internally and externally generated EMI conducted emissions and arrest high transient currents when equipped with MOVs.
MOVs in the panel. There are NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS inside the filter elements. Should a filter element be determined to be defective, contact ETS-Lindgren to order a replacement or to schedule its return or replacement.
Some signal filters contain bleeder resistors that will automatically reduce the voltage on any component to less than 50 V within five (5) seconds after the removal of input power. Contact ETS-Lindgren for details. Always discharge filters as described in the SHORTING STICK section of this manual.
Once the power correction coil is installed, the operating power frequency range of the filter then becomes 350 Hz to 450 Hz. For operation at other frequencies or DC, the coils must be disconnected. Please call ETS-Lindgren before proceeding. Current As specified on filter label.

10% to 15% of the rated current of the filter. The presence of this current does not indicate a problem unless it is above the level expected. Contact ETS-Lindgren for specific leakage current for each particular filter model.
User’s own procedures for the removal of spills, dirt, debris and corrosion should suffice. Should EMI gasket become torn or unusable, contact ETS-Lindgren to order replacement part E-903-008. The MOV arrestor (if provided) should be replaced when an MOV test (see Capacitance Measurement and MOV Inspection Procedure section) fails to indicate a working MOV.
±20%. A DF measurement should be done at the same time and recorded. DF readings above 0.08 should be noted and ETS-Lindgren should be called for advice before re- applying power to the filter.
WARRANTY STATEMENT ETS-Lindgren Inc., hereinafter referred to as the Seller, warrants that the RF filters purchased under this contract will be free from defects in workmanship performed by the Seller, and will conform to the applicable specifications and/or drawings. This warranty is limited to either giving credit, repairing or replacing with reasonable promptness after written notice from the buyer of such defect promptly after discovery of same and in no case later than the warranty period after shipment by Seller.
