Meeting Electrical and Environmental Requirements

Environment

The signal generator is designed for use in the following environmental conditions:
• indoor use
• <15,000 feet (4,572 meters) altitude
• 0 to 55° C temperature, unless otherwise specified
• relative humidity - type tested at 95%, +40° C (non- condensing)
CAUTION This product is designed for use in INSTALLATION CATEGORY II and POLLUTION
DEGREE 2, per IEC 61010 and 664, respectively.

Ventilation

Ventilation holes are located on the left side of the signal generator cover and the rear of the signal
generator chassis. Do not allow these holes to be obstructed, as they allow air flow through the signal
generator.
When installing the signal generator in a cabinet, the convection into and out of the signal generator
must not be restricted. The ambient temperature outside the cabinet must be less than the maximum
operating temperature of the signal generator by 4° C for every 100 watts dissipated within the
cabinet.
CAUTION
Damage to the signal generator may result when the total power dissipated in the
cabinet is greater than 800 watts. When this condition exists, forced convection must be
applied.
