THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE USE OF THIS EQUIPMENT OUTSIDE ITS RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS. PRECAUTIONS THE HFG01 MUST NOT BE OPERATED WITH THE TEST SUPPLY INPUT PLUGGED DIRECTLY INTO A PUBLIC MAINS SUPPLY SYSTEM. WHEN OPERATED, THE HFG01 WILL CAUSE HARMONIC AND FLICKER EMISSIONS TO THE SUPPLY CONNECTED TO THE TEST SUPPLY INPUT.
The HFG01 provides a series of harmonic and flicker disturbances of a nominal but stable level. The HFG01 may therefore be used to verify the stability of a measurement system. Additionally, due to its own stability it may be used as a transfer standard from a calibrated system, or be used as a repeatable source of interference for diagnostic and/or development design work.
HFG01’s own supply needs from the Test Supply under test. For ease of access all connections, user controls, and indicators are located on the front panel of the HFG01. The HFG01 is supplied with the external power unit with mains cable, manufacturer’s test certificate, and a CDROM containing digital copies of the manual, test certificate, and files of the tabulated certificate data.

NOTE. Do not allow any obstructions to interfere with the operation of the fans, or site the HFG01 such that airflow is restricted. Doing so will cause the equipment to run at an increased temperature and in so doing may affect its operation.
A steady indicator warns of a system failure, which will need to be cleared by fully restarting the HFG01 (refer to Section 4.6). HFG01 power switch Main On/Off switch for the HFG01.
. Pressing the power switch with the 24 Vdc unit connected will turn the HFG01 on, which will be confirmed by the green indicator . Pressing the power switch again will turn the HFG01 off.
5.5 Performing a test. The HFG01 acts as the equipment under test in the harmonics and flicker test system, and should be connected to the single-phase test power supply as per the typical test setup used (Figure 5 for example).
Typical performance results are shown in the sections below. 6.1 Flicker Load Operation The typical flicker disturbance generated by the HFG01 in each of the steady flicker modes when tested according to EN/IEC 61000-3-3 is shown in Table 3. Flicker Mode...
The periodicity of these checks is typically determined by the quality assurance regime employed by the user, however it is recommended that the HFG01 output be retested annually. This service is available from York EMC Services and can be arranged through your supplier.
Do not wet the case of the HFG01 when cleaning it, for example by using a wet cloth or aerosol cleaning fluid. If the case has become wet through any circumstances then it MUST be dried before being connected to a power supply.
These phenomena are deemed non applicable on the basis that the HFG01 has no relevant signal ports. The AC test port of the HFG01 may be looked upon as a signal port but the captive lead is less than 3m in length hence the tests do not apply.
Ensure that the airflow through the fan and ventilation duct areas remains unobstructed, and that the HFG01 is in good condition. For all maintenance and calibration procedures, the HFG01 should be returned to York EMC Services for servicing by authorized personnel.
