Operating determination
The SRWpower LE is designed for professional use only.
Therefore the operating personnel necessarily has to be familiar with the operation of the
equipment attached to this device.
This device is intended to be attached to a battery plate as a mechanical and electrical
replacement for a battery. Please check the maximum payload of the specific battery
plate to prevent mechanical overload.
Depending on the manufacturer, battery plates, even amongst one standard, are designed
differently in terms of mechanical rigidity. Please insure that the maximum load does not
override this limit. It is a good advice to handle the unit carefully when attached to a device.
The SRWpower LE is intended to be used in a dry and clean environment.
All parts of the SRWpower are made of resistant materials. There are no moving parts inside
the unit. Even though, you should avoid exposure to water, salt, sand, dust and excessive
heat to prevent corrosion and to avoid malfunction. If your SRWpower LE was exposed to
condensing humidity or spill water, please dry it up with a dry cloth and store it in a dry warm
room. Before operating the unit, please allow the remaining water to vaporize. Even though,
you should avoid excessive heat.
Do not use detergent to clean your system!
The SRWpower LE is intended as a power supply for cinematographic recording
equipment only (video tape recorders, harddisk recorders).
Please ask the manufacturer for compatibility with other equipment.
