To prevent damaging heat build-up and thus, ensure specified perfor-
mance, adhere to the following precautions:
Keep the heat sink free of dust, dirt, and contaminates, since its
ability to dissipate heat could become impaired.
Do not position any devices adjacent to the testhead that force air
(heated or not) into or onto its surfaces or cooling vents. This addi-
tional airflow could compromise accurate performance.
Make sure there is adequate airflow around the bottom and sides
to ensure proper cooling. Adequate airflow enables air tempera-
tures within approximately one inch of the testhead surfaces to
remain within specified limits under all operating conditions.
Turn off the mainframe power before connecting or disconnecting the
testhead to the mainframe.
