1. Safety instructions
The Control Unit for Spectrum Lamps corre-
sponds to the safety regulations for electrical
measuring, control and laboratory equipment
according to DIN EN 61010 section 1 and is
designed in accordance with safety class I. It
was designed for operation in dry rooms, suita-
ble for electrical equipment.
When operated properly and according to in-
structions, safety is ensured when working with
the equipment. However, safety is not guaran-
teed if the equipment is operated incorrectly or
handled carelessly.
If there is reason to assume that safe opera-
tion is no longer possible (e.g. visible damage),
the apparatus must be taken out of operation
immediately.
In schools and training centres, operation of
the apparatus is to be monitored by trained
personnel.
Prior to putting the unit into initial operation
check whether the value for the mains sup-
ply voltage printed on the back of the
housing meets the local requirements.
Prior to putting into operation, examine the
housing and the mains power line for any
damage and if any operating disturbances
arise or visible damage occurs to the
equipment, take it out of operation and
secure it from being put back into operation
inadvertently.
Only connect the device to sockets with an
earthed protective conductor.
Only replace a defective fuse with a fuse
having the same value as the original (see
rear side of the housing).
Pull the mains power plug prior to chang-
ing a fuse.
Never short-circuit a fuse or a fuse holder.
Always leave ventilation slots on the hous-
ing free to ensure sufficient air circulation
to cool the internal components. Do not
stack the unit.
Only permit the apparatus to be opened by
a qualified electrician.
