1. Safety instructions
The 5 kV high voltage power supply conforms to all 
safety regulations for electrical measuring, control, 
monitoring and laboratory equipment, as specified 
under DIN EN 61010, Section 1, and the equipment has 
been designed to meet protection class I. It is intended 
for operation in a dry environment, suitable for the 
operation of electrical equipment and systems. 
Safe operation of the equipment is guaranteed, 
provided it is used correctly. However, there is no 
guarantee of safety if the equipment is used in an 
improper or careless manner. 
If it may be assumed for any reason that non-
hazardous operation will not be possible (e.g. visible 
damage), the equipment should be switched off im-
mediately and secured against any unintended use. 
In schools and other educational institutions, the 
operation of the power supply unit must be super-
vised by qualified personnel. 
•
Before using the power supply unit for the first 
time, confirm that the specifications printed 
on the rear side of the housing are compatible 
with the local mains voltage. 
•
Before using the power supply unit for the first 
time, check the housing and the mains lead for 
any damage. In the event of any malfunc-
tion/operational defect or visible damage, 
switch off the unit immediately and secure it 
against unintended use. 
•
The instrument may only be connected to the 
mains via a socket that has an earth connec-
tion. 
•
Before making any connections, check the 
experiment leads for damaged insulation and 
exposed wires. 
•
Replace a faulty fuse only with one matching 
the specifications stated at the rear of the 
housing.
