Safety Inspection - QuadTech 1865 Instruction Manual

1.4.4 Safety Inspection

!
Before operating the instrument inspect the AC power inlet module on the rear of
the 1865 instrument to ensure that the properly rated fuse is in place, otherwise damage
to unit is possible. Refer to paragraph 1.4.3.
The 1865 instrument is shipped with a standard U.S. power cord, QuadTech PN 4200-
0300 (with Belden SPH-386 socket or equivalent, and 3 wire plug conforming to IEC
320) and CE units with an approved international cord set. Make sure the instrument is
only used with these cables (or other approved international cord set) which ensures the
instrument is provided with connection to protective earth ground.
When the 1865 instrument is used in a rack installation (using the QuadTech 1865-50
Rack Mount Kit) make sure the unit is secured using the cabinet mounting rails and
not securely solely by the front panel angle brackets.
In bench or rack mount applications the instrument should be positioned with
consideration for ample air flow to the rear panel fan ventilation holes. An open space
of at least 3 inches (75mm) is recommend behind the rear panel. The surrounding
environment should be free from excessive dust to prevent contamination of electronic
circuits.
WARNING
If this instrument is used in a manner not specified in this manual protection to the
operator and equipment may be impaired.
