SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPERATING AND SERVICE PERSONNEL

Operators and service personnel should always wear safety glasses. Operators shall not enter areas
intended for service access only. Only experienced service personnel should enter such areas, and
only after taking the preliminary precautions described in paragraphs 1 through 6 below.
Potentially lethal voltages may exist within this unit, even with the line power switched off.
Service should only be attempted by qualified personnel. Failure to observe all safety
precautions may result in personal injury.
This component is designed to operate as part of a system containing high-voltage equipment.
Observe the precautions described below when servicing this system, especially when servicing
components where high voltages may be present.
1. Before servicing or operating this equipment, read all the component manuals supplied with the
system, paying special attention to safety instructions.
2. Post HIGH VOLTAGE WARNING signs in conspicuous locations within the service area.
3. Remove rings, watches, bracelets, and any other metal jewelry before working around high
voltage.
4. DO NOT WORK ALONE!
5. Be sure that all equipment is connected to a power receptacle having the correct polarity and
grounding, as prescribed by the local electrical codes. Refer to the power supply portion of the
documentation to determine the proper electrical ground for high-voltage components.
6. Before servicing any high-voltage component, switch off the electrical power at the component's
main power switch. This switch should have a lockout feature. Lock the power off and keep the
key with you while you are working on the equipment.
7. Certain electrical parts (e.g., electrolytic capacitors) hold a lethal voltage even after the power is
switched off. Before entering any service area, use a grounding hook to discharge such parts. Be
sure that these parts are discharged before starting any repairs.
8. DO NOT touch high-voltage leads unless power is off and a grounding hook is connected to the
parts to be serviced.
9. The high-voltage components of the system should be equipped with electrical interlocks to
protect personnel from injury. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT, OVERRIDE, OR BYPASS
THESE PROTECTIVE DEVICES!
10. Never leave loose ends on high-voltage connections.
11. Observe the following warning if the system employs Radio Frequency (RF) power.
RF radiation—even at modest power levels—can cause serious injury. If any of the RF
components (e.g., the RF power supply, the RF matching network, or the RF electrodes or
shielding inside the product chamber) are moved or changed in any way, the RF energy may
be radiated outside the equipment. Monitor the equipment to assure that external RF
radiation is below the levels prescribed by any and all applicable safety codes.
