Cooling Requirements - LeCroy WaveRunner Xi series Operator's Manual

Note: Direct sunlight, radiators, and other heat sources
should be taken into account when assessing the ambient
temperature.
The design of the instrument has been verified to conform to EN
61010-1 safety standard per the following limits:
•
Installation (Overvoltage) Categories II (Mains Supply
Connector) & I (Measuring Terminals)
•
Pollution Degree 2
•
Protection Class I
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
• Installation (Overvoltage) Category II refers to local
distribution level, which is applicable to equipment
connected to the mains supply (AC power source).
• Installation (Overvoltage) Category I refers to signal level,
which is applicable to equipment measuring terminals that
are connected to source circuits in which measures are
taken to limit transient voltages to an appropriately low
level.
• Pollution Degree 2 refers to an operating environment
where normally only dry non-conductive pollution occurs.
Occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by
condensation must be expected.
• Protection Class 1 refers to a grounded equipment, in
which protection against electric shock is achieved by
Basic Insulation and by means of a connection to the
protective ground conductor in the building wiring.

Cooling Requirements

The instrument relies on forced air cooling with internal fans and
ventilation openings. Care must be taken to avoid restricting the
airflow around the apertures (fan holes) at the sides, front, and
rear of the DSO. To ensure adequate ventilation it is required to
leave a 15 cm (6 inch) minimum gap around the sides, front,
and rear of the instrument.

CAUTION
Protect the DSO's display touch screen from
excessive impacts with foreign objects.
CAUTION
Do not exceed the maximum specified front
panel terminal (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4, EXT)
voltage levels. Refer to Specifications for more
details.
CAUTION
Do not connect or disconnect probes or test
leads while they are connected to a voltage
source.
CAUTION
Do not block the ventilation holes located on
both sides and rear of the DSO.
CAUTION
Do not allow any foreign matter to enter the
DSO through the ventilation holes, etc.
