1-6 

installation, operation, and maintenance information carefully before using the product. Refer 
to the documentation contained in this guide for complete product specifications. 
If the product is used in a manner not specified, the protection provided by the product 
warranty may be voided. 
 
The types of product users are: 
 
Responsible person is the individual or group responsible for the use and maintenance of 
equipment, for ensuring that the equipment is operated within its specifications and operating 
limits, and for ensuring that operators are adequately trained. 
 
Operators use the product for its intended function. They must be trained in electrical safety 
procedures and proper use of the instrument. They must be protected from electric shock and 
contact with hazardous live circuits. 
 
Maintenance personnel perform routine procedures on the product to keep it operating 
property, for example, setting the line voltage or replacing consumable materials. 
Maintenance procedures are described in the user documentation. The procedures explicitly 
state if the operator may perform them. Otherwise, they should be performed only by service 
personnel. 
 
Service personnel are trained to work on live circuits, perform safe installations, and repair 
products. Only properly trained service personnel may perform installation and service 
procedures.

Safety Information 

 

Please read through the following safety information before using the 
product. 

 

 

Measurement Category II 

is for measurements performed on circuits which are directly 

connected to the low voltage installation. 

 
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, please read and follow these guidelines 
carefully: 

 

Follow the guidelines in this manual and DO NOT use the power supply if the case is 
damaged. Check the case and terminals. Then contact your distributor for the case 
replacement. 

 

When using the probes, always keep your fingers behind the finger guards.   

 

Always connect the common test leads (black) before connecting the live test leads (red), 
and disconnect the live test leads (red) before disconnecting the common test leads 
(black). This will reduce the chance of an electric shock.   

 

If you need to open the power supply’s case or replace any parts, read the instructions in 
this manual first. You must be qualified to perform this action. 

 

When replacing fuses, use only the same type and same rating as specified.   

 

Do not try to operate the power supply if it is damaged. Disconnect the power from the 
equipment and consult the local service representative. Return the product to Chroma 
service department if necessary. 

 

Make sure your power cord corresponds to requirements of local regulations. When 
replacing it, the specification must be the same as the previous one. An incorrect power 
cord may cause unpredictable harm or damage. Some rules to follow are shown below. 

CAUTION
