It requires to be replaced at regular intervals to extend the lifetime. For the replacement, contact us. (It requires a replacement charge separately. Do not replace it by yourself, as there is a risk of electric shock.) AMPS series...
The front panel handles are used when turning the unit around or pulling it out of the rack. Do not apply the unit full weight to the handles. This unit is for indoor use only. This unit complies with OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY Ⅱ, and POLLUTION DEGREE 2. AMPS series...
Make sure to ground properly as shown above. The poor grounding may cause electrical shock or serious damage to the unit. When the output short circuit or arcing is predicted, make the ground wire thicker and shorter. AMPS series...
The rated maximum voltage or current cannot be obtained. The waveforms at constant current operation or the current monitor are distorted or deformed.

Be careful not to pinch your fingers between the bottom of the unit and a floor or table when placing it. Do not hold the front panel handles in a way applying a heavy load on them. Failure to do so may cause damage to the unit or injury. AMPS series...
Wipe it with liquid such as alcohol, and dry it well before use. NOTE: At operating frequencies a few kHz or more, the operating sound of the amplifier may hear from inside of the unit, but this is not abnormal. AMPS series...

In order to get a set value, convert using the scale or check the voltage meter display. Output voltage Dial scale AMPS- AMPS- AMPS- AMPS- AMPS- AMPS- 0.6B2000 2B200 5B80 10B40 20B20 30B20 -30kV 000 (ccw) -600V -2kV -5kV -10kV -20kV +600V +2kV +5kV +10kV +20kV +30kV 1000 (cw) AMPS series...
In such cases, reduce the peak current by lowering the peak time or voltage, or by adding a resistor in series with the capacitive Max 1ms load. e.g. AMPS-20B20 The peak current for the following models is up to two times higher than the rated one. AMPS-0.6B2000/AMPS-2B200/AMPS-5B80/AMPS-30B20 AMPS series...
Precautions when using an open collector: Refer to the following requirements when using an open collector as the remote switch feature. Open collector’s requirements Output Switch Open collector Short 0.4V or less (10mA) Open 2V or more (Open: 5V) AMPS series...
In order to clear it, once turn off the HV ON/OFF switch and the POWER switch and wait for lowering the internal temperature. After it is lowered to the normal one, then turn on the switches in order again. AMPS series...
Avoid continuously using the unit at high frequencies which its output amplitude reduces. Doing so may distort the output waveform, increase internal losses, and result in failure. If not, it may lead to malfunction of the unit by distorted output waveform and increased internal losses. AMPS series...
Both LOc option and LCc option are installed,and either mode can be selected with the switch on the front panel. * To switch between cutoff and limit modes, turn off the power switch. Cutoff / Current limit switching function. AMPS series...
Thus, a unit to be selected must have an output current capability of ±88mA or more. Even if the values of C, V, and F change, it is just a proportional calculation, so it is easy to calculate. Reference: Frequency VS Current [@capacitance: Voltage] Current [A] Freq. [Hz] AMPS series...
