5-1. Sign of Danger and its Meaning
It expresses a DANGER.
WARNING indicates an urgent hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury
It expresses a WARNING.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
It expresses a CAUTION.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury.
5-2. Fundamental Safety Precautions
1. This simulator generates high voltage and large current (20kV, 4000A max).
Mishandling or careless operation may cause a deadly injury.
【Warning against human body, environments, operation and connection】
2. This simulator is 20kV/4000A MAX specification. Never place the unit for a
long time with the voltage/current meter reading an exceeding value (red
zone).Never set the output voltage/current exceeding the mentioned value.
【Warning against human body and connection】
3. This simulator cannot be used in an explosive area, fire prohibited area, etc.
Use of this simulator in such an area is liable to cause ignition by discharge.
【Warning against human body and environments】
4. A person who has a pacemaker on should not operate this simulator and also
should not enter the area where this simulator is operating.
【Warning against human body and operation】
5. Test facilities using this simulator should be insulated and protected against
a minimum of 20kV. EUT tests using this simulator should be performed
within a protective enclosure proof, such as a safety box or a safety fence,
against scattering broken pieces, fire and electric shock.
【Warning against human body, operation and environments】
6. When connecting accessories and optional units for setting test waveforms
and test conditions or when connecting to other equipment, turn off the high
voltage circuit of this simulator (by pressing the HIGH VOLTAGE OFF switch)
beforehand. Otherwise, you may receive an electric shock.
【Warning against human body and connection】
