A.  Optional Accessories 

 

Foot Switch 

The Foot Switch option (P/N: 09912508) provides for external control of

 

 the 

cC

harge or 

mM

agnetize function

s

. Other provisions for remote operation are available. 

 

Temperature Monitor 

 

 

The Temperature Monitor option (P/N: 09003126) will continuously display the 

 

 

B.  Safety Procedures 

 
This equipment operates at high voltage.  All high voltage windings and connections are 
enclosed in the cabinet and Magnetizing Fixture housing.  Under no circumstances should 
these housings or the cabinet be tampered with, or the design altered unless previously 
discussed with Magnetic Instrumentation, Inc. Care should be taken that the equipment is 
properly grounded.  No drilling, tapping, or machine work should be done on the 
Magnetizing Fixture housing unless drawings of the internal construction are first 
obtained from Magnetic Instrumentation, Inc. 

 

An interlock is mounted to the panel covering the disconnect jacks for the 

Magnetizing 

Fixture

. This prevents operation of the machine without the 

Magnetizing Fixture 

properly 

attached. The high-voltage-disconnect jack and tT

he four side panels 

should only be 

removed are provided with interlocks that break the power line.  These interlocks should 
be blocked only 

for troubleshooting purposes and then only by an engineer or skilled 

technician familiar with this type of equipment and with the danger involved with 
working with several hundred microfarads of capacitance charged to 3000 volts. 

 

Caution labels are placed on the equipment in strategic locations, to alert the possible 
safety hazards.  For maximum safety to the operator, all safety precautions indicated or 
implied must be observed.
