Safety & Warnings
This unit has been designed and tested in accordance with the EC Certificate of Conformity and has left the manufacturer’s plant in a condition fully complying with safety standards. To maintain this condition and to ensure safe operation, the user must observe all instructions and warnings given in this operating manual. Safety-related symbols used on equipment and documentation from R&S include: “Observe operating instructions,” “PE terminal,” “Ground terminal,” “Danger! Shock hazard,” “Warning! Hot surfaces,” “Ground,” and “Attention! Electrostatic sensitive devices require special care.”
The unit may be used only in the operating conditions and positions specified by the manufacturer. The R&S FSH is protected against dripping water and dust (IP degree 51). Unless otherwise agreed, the following applies: pollution severity 2, overvoltage category 2, altitude max. 2000 m powered from AC power supply, altitude max. 3000 m powered from battery. The unit may be operated only from supply networks fused with max. 16 A. Unless specified otherwise in the data sheet, a tolerance of +10% shall apply to the nominal voltage and of +5% to the nominal frequency.
For measurements in circuits with voltages V.ng > 30 V, suitable measures should be taken to avoid any hazards (using, for example, appropriate measuring equipment, fusing, current limiting, electrical separation, insulation). For permanently installed units without built-in fuses, circuit breakers or similar protective devices, the supply circuit must be fused such as to provide suitable protection for the users and equipment. Prior to switching on the unit, it must be ensured that the nominal voltage set on the unit matches the nominal voltage of the AC supply network. If a different voltage is to be set, the power fuse of the unit may have to be changed accordingly.
If the unit has no power switch for disconnection from the AC supply, the plug of the connecting cable is regarded as the disconnecting device. In such cases, it must be ensured that the power plug is easily reachable and accessible at all times (length of connecting cable approx. 2 m). Functional or electronic switches are not suitable for providing disconnection from the AC supply. If units without power switches are integrated into racks or systems, a disconnecting device must be provided at the system level.
Applicable local or national safety regulations and rules for the prevention of accidents must be observed in all work performed. Prior to performing any work on the unit or opening the unit, the latter must be disconnected from the supply network. Any adjustments, replacements of parts, maintenance, or repair may be carried out only by authorized R&S technical personnel. Only original parts may be used for replacing parts relevant to safety (e.g., power switches, power transformers, fuses). A safety test must be performed after each replacement of parts relevant to safety (visual inspection, PE conductor test, insulation-resistance, leakage-current measurement, functional test).
Ensure that the connections with information technology equipment comply with IEC950 / EN60950. NiMH batteries must not be exposed to high temperatures or fire. Keep batteries away from children. If the battery is replaced improperly, there is a danger of explosion. Only replace the battery by R&S type (see spare part list). NiMH batteries are suitable for environmentally-friendly disposal or specialized recycling. Dispose of them into appropriate containers only. Do not short-circuit the battery.
Equipment returned or sent in for repair must be packed in the original packing or in
