General Safety Considerations
CAUTION This product is designed for use in Installation Category II and Pollution
Degree 2 per IEC 61010-1C and 664 respectively.
CAUTION Do not use too much liquid in cleaning the optical spectrum analyzer. Water can
enter the front-panel keyboard, damaging sensitive electronic components.
CAUTION VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS: When installing the product in a cabinet, the
convection into and out of the product must not be restricted. The ambient
temperature (outside the cabinet) must be less than the maximum operating
temperature of the product by 4
° C for every 100 watts dissipated in the
cabinet. If the total power dissipated in the cabinet is greater than 800 watts,
then forced convection must be used.
CAUTION Install the instrument so that the detachable power cord is readily identifiable
and is easily reached by the operator. The detachable power cord is the
instrument disconnecting device. It disconnects the mains circuit from the
mains supply before other parts of the instrument. The front panel switch is
only a standby switch and is not a LINE switch. Alternatively, an externally
installed switch or circuit breaker (which is readily identifiable and is easily
reached by the operator) may be used as a disconnecting device.
CAUTION Always use the three-prong AC power cord supplied with this instrument.
Failure to ensure adequate earth grounding by not using this cord may cause
instrument damage.
CAUTION Do not connect ac power until you have verified the line voltage is correct as
described in “Line Power Requirements” on page 1-11. Damage to the
equipment could result.
CAUTION This instrument has autoranging line voltage input. Be sure the supply voltage
is within the specified range.
CAUTION The Agilent 86140B, 86141B, 86144B, 86146B and 86142B Option 004/005/006
EELED sources contain an IEC Class 1 LED, according to IEC 60825.
CAUTION Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
