2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 MATERIAL REQUIRED (SEE TABLE 1.)
2.2 DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. Disconnect all source power, load and programming cables from the power supply. If recently powered, allow
at least two minutes for the internal circuitry to discharge fully before removing the cover.
2. Note the serial number of the power supply on the nameplate located on bottom surface of the power supply
chassis.
3. Find a clean work surface with sufficient area to work on the power supply (an ESD-protected work surface is
ideal).
4. Place the wrist strap on your arm as indicated by the instructions for the wrist strap. Attach the clip to the power
supply's chassis. If the work surface is not ESD-protected, it is recommended that the chassis also be con-
nected to a known good ground potential. Do not use source power protective earthing connections
unless known to be zero potential.
5. Remove fourteen (14) flathead screws from the power supply cover: five (5) on each side surface and four (4)
on the top surface. Remove the cover by lifting it straight up. It may be necessary to apply a slight outward
force at the lower edge toward the rear of the power supply to release the cover. Set the cover and screws to
the side.
