SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service and repair of
this equipment. Failure to comply with the safety precautions or warnings in this document violates
safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of this equipment and may impair the built-
in protections within.
TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Inc. shall not be liable for user’s failure to comply with these requirements.
INSTALLATION CATEGORY
The Genesys
TM
power supply series has been evaluated to INSTALLATION CATEGORY II. Installation
category (over voltage category) II: local level, appliances, portable equipment etc. With smaller tran-
sient over voltage than Installation Category (over voltage category) III.
GROUNDING
This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument. To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis must be
connected to an electrical ground. The instrument must be connected to the AC power supply mains
through a three conductor power cable, with the ground wire firmly connected to an electrical ground
(safety ground) at the power outlet.
For instruments designed to be hard-wired to the supply mains, the protective earth terminal must be
connected to the safety electrical ground before another connection is made. Any interruption of the
protective ground conductor or disconnection of the protective earth terminal will cause a potential
shock hazard that might cause personal injury.
FUSES
Fuses must be changed by authorized TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Inc. service personnel only. For
continued protection against risk of fire, replace only with the same type and rating of fuse. Refer to
Chapter 9 for fuse ratings.
INPUT RATINGS
Do not use AC supply, which exceeds the input voltage and frequency rating of this instrument. The
input voltage and frequency rating of the Genesys
TM
power supply series is: 100-240V, 50/60Hz. For
safety reasons, the mains supply voltage fluctuations should not exceed +/-10% of nominal voltage.
LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove the instrument cover. No internal adjustment or component re-
placement is allowed by non-TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Inc. qualified personnel. Never replace com-
ponents with power cable connected. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power, discharge circuits
and remove external voltage source before touching components.
PARTS SUBSTITUTIONS & MODIFICATIONS
Parts substitutions and modifications are allowed by authorized TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Inc. ser-
vice personnel only. For repairs or modifications, the instrument must be returned to an authorized
TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Inc. service facility.
WARNING
OUTPUT TERMINALS GROUNDING
There is a potential shock hazard at the RS232/RS485 and the IEEE ports when using power supplies
with rated or combined voltage greater than 400V and the Positive Output of the Power Supply is
grounded. Do Not connect the Positive Output to ground when using the RS232/RS485 or IEEE.
