Precaution And Notices; 2-1Safety Precautions - Philips 107E7 Service Manual

17" CDT Color Monitor
2. Precautions and notices
2-1.Safety precautions
1. Observe all caution and safety related notes located inside the display cabinet.
2. Operation of the display with the cover removed, may cause a serious shock hazard from the display power
supply. Work on the display should not be attempted by anyone who is not thoroughly familiar with
precautions necessary when working on high voltage equipment.
3. Do not install, remove or handle the picture tube in any manner unless shatter-proof goggles are worn.
People who are not so equipped should be kept away while handling picture tube. Keep picture tube away
from the body while handling.
4. The picture tube is constructed to limit X-RAY radiation to 0.5 mR/HR. For continued protection, use the
designated replacement tube only, and adjust the voltages so that the designated maximum rating at the
anode will not be exceeded.
5. Symbol" " means safety relative parts. The use of substitute replacement parts which do not have
!
the same characteristics as specified in the parts list may create shock, fire or explode etc.
6. Symbol" " means X-ray relative parts. Before replacing any of these components please read the parts
list in this manual carefully to avoid creating higher anode voltage or x-ray. Especially for sealed controls,
such as VR902, VR903, VR701 and FBT screen VR etc, which were sealed by the manufacturer once their
optimum position has been set, please don't dismantle them as your likes, otherwise you will break or
damage the component. If you need replace the parts with sealed control, please adjust the relative VR to
make sure the B+ voltage under 59V and well seal it with A+B glue or equivalent, which you can not move
away with one screw driver
7. Before returning a serviced display to the customer, a thorough safety test must be performed to verify that
the display is safe to operate without danger or shock. Always perform an AC leakage current check on the
exposed metallic parts of the cabinet, such as screw heads.
Test method for current leakage is described as follow.
(a) Plug the AC line cord directly into rated AC outlet (do not use a line isolation transformer during this
check).
(b) Use an AC voltmeter having 5000 ohms per volt or with more sensitivity in the following manner:
Connect a 1500 ohms 10 Watt resistor, paralleled by a 0.15UF, AC type capacitor between a known
good earth ground (water pipe, conduit, etc.) and the exposed metallic parts simultaneously. Measure
the AC voltage across the combination of 1500 ohms resistor and 0.15UF capacitor.
(c) Reverse the AC plug at the AC outlet and repeat AC voltage measurements for each exposed metallic
part.
(d) Voltage measured must not exceed 0.5 volts RMS. This corresponds to 0.35 milliamp AC. Any value
exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and must be corrected immediately.
