Electrostatic Discharge - h/p/cosmos 150/50 mercury Operating And Service Manual

The running machines are equipped with an expulsion fuse at the front of the device/frontal section below the hood or in
the interior section, depending on the model.
The power supply for the electronic control unit is located under the motor cover. The sport and fitness machines have
one secondary fuse inside the housing of the power supply, while the medical devices have two. A primary fuse is
located inside the power supply cabinet, as well as two secondary fuses for 12V DC and 24V AC in medical application
devices up to construction size 190/65. The secondary fuse for the isolation transformer is located beneath the engine
hood of medical application devices.

Electrostatic discharge

If the user moves around the devices, they can become electrostatically charged with up to several thousand volts. If the
user then touches a metal piece, keys or display, there may be an electrostatic discharge between the user and the
device. Such discharge may interfere with the operation of the device. Generally, electrostatic discharges are without
harm for the user as well as for the device, but can be quite unpleasant. The main causes for electrostatic discharges
are the choice of clothes, the shoesoles and the movement. Very dry air and many light fittings can also lead to the
same effect.
We recommend that you try different clothes or shoes, humidify the air in the room, and switch off some of the lights.
Please inform the manufacturer of such interference.
9.5 Sources of interference
The device should not be installed near e.g. an x-ray device, motor or transformer with high connection power, as the
electric and magnetic interference mayn falsify measurements. Very strong sources of interference (e.g. above the limit
specified by EMT) may influence the functioning of the device.
Avoid high-tension power lines and electrical devices without c - sign and without a certificate of compliance for
electromagnetic tolerance.
Pay special attention to the advice and data in the chapter 11.5 entitled "Technical data" / "
(EMC) and immunity: Guidance and manufacturer's declaration"..
