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.
ETS-Lindgren Filters are electromagnetically isolated Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Filter enclosures with EMI isolated filter components. 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.
Transient Protection, there will also be MOVs in the filter. There are NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS inside the Filter. Should a filter be determined to be defective, contact ETS-Lindgren to order a replacement or to schedule its return or replacement.
Shorting Stick (Not Provided) Only qualified personnel should operate or service this equipment. A shorting stick (grounding rod) should be used by qualified service personnel to ensure all capacitors and other energy storage elements are discharged and in a safe state. All terminals accessible to service personnel and capable of retaining stored energy in the event of automatic discharge circuit failure are accessible and should be shorted to ground with a shorting stick or equivalent.
Wiring should be done in accordance to the wiring schematic provided in the ILLUSTRATIONS section of this manual and applicable local and national electrical codes and guidelines. Installation of the conduit penetration and EMI gasket should be done in accordance with the drawing provided in the ILLUSTRATIONS section of this manual.
Oil, dirt, debris and corrosion inside the filter compartments should be removed according to appropriate procedures. 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 or E-903-016, depending on the size of filter.
±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.
Filter Installation on Shield Installation on shield is straight forward as shown Filter Electrical Wiring Individually Mounted Filters Most filters provided will have solder-on terminals. Connection should be made by soldering an appropriately sized conductor to the terminal. Soldering iron should not exceed 60W. An input terminal corresponds to an output terminal on the same line.
