WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
There are many points in the instrument which can, if contacted, cause personal injury. Be extremely careful. Any adjustments or service procedures that require operation of the instrument with protective covers removed should be performed only by trained service personnel.
These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing unless you are qualified to do so.
The opening of covers or removal of parts is likely to expose dangerous voltages. Disconnect the Agilent 11899A from all voltage sources while it is being opened.
The power cords on system instruments are connected to internal capacitors that may remain live for five seconds after disconnecting the plug from its power supply.
If this instrument is not used as specified, the protection provided by the equipment could be impaired. This instrument must be used in a normal condition (in which all means for protection are intact) only.
To prevent electrical shock, disconnect the Agilent 11899A from mains before cleaning. Use a dry cloth or one slightly dampened with water to clean the external case parts. Do not attempt to clean internally.

WARNING
WARNING
CAUTION
This is a Safety Class 1 product (provided with a protective earthing ground incorporated in the power cord). The mains plug shall only be inserted in a socket outlet provided with a protective earth contact. Any interruption of the protective conductor inside or outside of the product is likely to make the product dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
No operator serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel. To prevent electrical shock, do not remove covers.
For continued protection against fire hazard, replace line fuse only with same type and ratings, (type T 0.315A/250V for 100/120V operation and 0.16A/250V for 220/240V operation). The use of other fuses or materials is prohibited. Verify that the value of the line­voltage fuse is correct.
• For 100/120V operation, use an IEC 127 5×20 mm, 0.315 A, 250 V, Agilent part number 2110-0449.
• For 220/240V operation, use an IEC 127 5×20 mm, 0.16 A, 250 V, Agilent Technologies part number 2110-0448.
Before switching on this instrument, make sure that the line voltage selector switch is set to the line voltage of the power supply and the correct fuse is installed. Assure the supply voltage is in the specified range.

Returning the Instrument for Service

Returning the Instrument for Service
The instructions in this section show you how to properly return the instru­ment for repair or calibration. Always call the Agilent Technologies Instrument Support Center first to initiate service service office. This ensures that the repair (or calibration) can be properly tracked and that your instrument will be returned to you as quickly as possi­ble. Call this number regardless of where you are located. Refer to “Agilent
Technologies Service Offices” on page 15 for a list of service offices.
Agilent Technologies Instrument Support Center . . . . . . . . . . . (800) 403-0801
If the instrument is still under warranty or is covered by an Agilent Technolo­gies maintenance contract, it will be repaired under the terms of the warranty or contract (the warranty is at the front of this manual). If the instrument is no longer under warranty or is not covered by an Agilent Technologies mainte­nance plan, Agilent Technologies will notify you of the cost of the repair after examining the unit.
When an instrument is returned to a Agilent Technologies service office for servicing, it must be adequately packaged and have a complete description of the failure symptoms attached. When describing the failure, please be as spe­cific as possible about the nature of the problem. Include copies of additional failure information (such as the instrument failure settings, data related to instrument failure, and error messages) along with the instrument being returned.

Preparing the instrument for shipping

1
Write a complete description of the failure and attach it to the instrument. Include any specific performance details related to the problem. The following
12
Returning the Instrument for Service
information should be returned with the instrument.
• Type of service required.
• Date instrument was returned for repair.
• Description of the problem:
• Whether problem is constant or intermittent.
• Whether instrument is temperature-sensitive.
• Whether instrument is vibration-sensitive.
• Instrument settings required to reproduce the problem.
• Performance data.
• Company name and return address.
• Name and phone number of technical contact person.
• Model number of returned instrument.
• Full serial number of returned instrument.
• List of any accessories returned with instrument.
2
Cover all front or rear-panel connectors that were originally covered when you first received the instrument.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Cover electrical connectors to protect sensitive components from electrostatic damage. Cover optical connectors to protect them from damage due to physical contact or dust.
Instrument damage can result from using packaging materials other than the original materials. Never use styrene pellets as packaging material. They do not adequately cushion the instrument or prevent it from shifting in the carton. They may also cause instrument damage by generating static electricity.
3
Pack the instrument in the original shipping containers. Original materials are available through any Agilent Technologies office. Or, use the following guidelines:
• Wrap the instrument in antistatic plastic to reduce the possibility of damage caused by electrostatic discharge.
• For instruments weighing less than 54 kg (120 lb), use a double-walled, cor­rugated cardboard carton of 159 kg (350 lb) test strength.
• The carton must be large enough to allow approximately 7 cm (3 inches) on all sides of the instrument for packing material, and strong enough to accom­modate the weight of the instrument.
• Surround the equipment with approximately 7 cm (3 inches) of packing ma­terial, to protect the instrument and prevent it from moving in the carton. If packing foam is not available, the best alternative is S.D-240 Air Cap™ from
13
Returning the Instrument for Service
Sealed Air Corporation (Commerce, California 90001). Air Cap looks like a plastic sheet filled with air bubbles. Use the pink (antistatic) Air Cap™ to reduce static electricity. Wrapping the instrument several times in this ma­terial will protect the instrument and prevent it from moving in the carton.
4
Seal the carton with strong nylon adhesive tape.
5
Mark the carton “FRAGILE, HANDLE WITH CARE”.
6
Retain copies of all shipping papers.
