CHAPTER 3 INSTALLATION

3.1
GENERAL
This chapter contains instructions for initial inspection, preparation for use and repackaging for
shipment. Connection to PC, linking ZUP units and setting the address are described in chapter 5.
ZUP series power supplies generate a magnetic field which might affect the
operation of other instruments. If your equipment is susceptible to magnetic fields,

3.2 INITIAL INSPECTION

Prior to shipment this power supply was inspected and found free of mechanical or electrical defects.
Upon unpacking of the power supply, inspect for any damage which may have occurred in transit. Keep
all packing materials until inspection has been completed. If any damage is detected, file a claim with
the carrier immediately and notify the Nemic-Lambda sales or service facility nearest you.

3.2.1 Mechanical inspection

The mechanical inspection should confirm that there is no exterior damage to the power supply such as
broken knobs or connectors and that the front panel and meter face are not scratched or cracked.

3.2.2 Preparation for use

In order to be operational the power supply must be connected to an appropriate AC source. The line
voltage must be within the power supply specification. DO NOT apply power before reading paragraph
3.3.

3.3 AC SOURCE REQUIREMENTS

The ZUP series can be operated from a nominal 100V to 240V, single phase, 47 ~ 63Hz. The input
voltage range and current required for each model is specified in chapter 2. Make sure that under
heavy load, the AC voltage supplied to the power supply does not fall below "low limit" specifications.
3.4 COOLING & PLACEMENT
This power supply is fan cooled. Upon installation ensure sufficient space for air intake (front panel) and
exhaust (rear panel). The power supply should be used in an area where the ambient temperature
does not exceed +50 C

3.5 RACK MOUNTING

ZUP models can be mounted in a standard 19" rack (3U height). The 200W and 400W models occupy
1/6 rack length. The 800W model occupies 1/3 rack length. The power supplies should be fixed by M4
screws replacing the rubber feet on the bottom of the power supply. The screws must not protrude more
than 6mm into the power supply. Refer to the outline drawing in this chapter for mounting details.

3.6 POWER CONNECTION

Connection of this power supply to an AC power source should
do not position adjacent to the ZUP.
O
be made by an electrician or other qualified personnel.
