This cable/appliance should be protected by a suitably rated and approved HBC mains fuse: refer to the rating information on the equipment and/or user instructions for details. As a guide, cable of

0.75mm

should be protected by a 3A or 5A fuse. Larger conductors would normally require 13A types, depending on the connection method used.

Any moulded mains connector that requires removal /replacement must be destroyed by removal of any fuse & fuse carrier and disposed of immediately, as a plug with bared wires is hazardous if a engaged in live socket. Any re-wiring must be carried out in accordance with the information detailed on this label.

z The applied Voltage/Current Unit for this series instruments is Volt and

Amp.

z The Instrument requires 30 minutes warm-up with no load before

operation or calibration to achieve rated accuracy.

z The Factory setting is in panel operation mode that enable user to operate

the instruments directly from panel control knob. Besides, when the remote controller is on line, the operation can only be proceed through it, unless the LOCAL key is pressed, at this time, the OUTPUT is still working. Whenever the power is reset, the output will be at OFF status and the operation is through front panel operation mode.

z The series of power supplies have double output ranges, after pow er on,

the output is always at OFF status, and the setting is stayed at the previous setting status before power off.

z Whatever the output is at ON or OFF, the output range can be switched

USER MANUAL

z When the output is set to OFF, the OUTPUT OFF message will be

displayed on the front panel, the setting still can be modified. At the same time of modification, the corresponding setting item or status will be displayed. When the output is set to ON, the setting can also be modified. At the same time of the modification, the panel display mode is changed from measurement value to the setting item or status. Under the normal setting of voltage or current, the panel will disp lay measurement value, if want to change the displayed mode to setting value, press [SHIFT][DISPLAY LIMIT] to input setting value, after a few se conds, if no value is input, the display mode will be switched to measurement value automatically.

z When set output on, the symbol of “＊” will be appeared on the upper left

of meter to indicate the instrument is at output mode. when the meter displays output measurement value(at measuring status), the symbol of

“＊” becomes blinking.

WARNING

The following instructions are executed by qualified personnel only. To avoid electrical shock, do no perform any servicing other than the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.

6-1. Fuse Replacement

If the fuse blows, the display will not light and the power supply will not operate. The fuse should not normally open unless a problem has developed in th e unit. Try to d etermine and c orrect the caus e of the blown fuse, then replace only with a fuse of the correct rating and type.

WARNING. For continued fire protection. Replace fuse only with 250V fuse of the specific type and rating, and disconnect power cord before replacing fuse.

USER MANUAL

(1) Make sure the power cord is unp lugged. (2) Change the AC selects switch to the desired line voltage position.

A change in line voltage may also require a corresponding change of fuse value. Install the correct fuse value as listed on rear panel.

6-3. Measurement Techniques

For an accurate and conven ient mea sure ment, pleas e set up th e instr ument according to the fo llowin g:

1) Setup:

6-2. Line Voltage Conversion

The primary winding of the power transformer is tapped to permit operation from 100, 120, 220, or 230VAC, 50/60 Hz line voltage. Conversion from one line voltage to another is done by change AC selects switch. The rear panel identifies the line voltage to which the unit was factory set.

2) The calibrated dev ices:

For general calibration, user can select the suitable calibration devices by their own. Please refer to the below recommendation:

A. Electronic Load

In order to meet the demand of the auto calibration, the Electronic Load with GPIB is well recommended. The main function of the Electronic Load is to control the short test (CC current calibration), the connection test (voltage load regulation, transient response time) and open test( CV voltage calibration).

Measurement Techniques

Assure a precise Load regulation, Voltage peak to peak, and transient response time, the test joint point must be configured to sampling terminals of S+ and S-.

B. Current Monitoring Resistor

USER MANUAL

D. Oscilloscope

To test the voltage noise and output oscillator when the power supp ly is in the CV and CC mode.

E. Person Computer (PC)

This is a supplemen tar y tool for the auto c alib rat ion in cludi ng in terf ace card and auto calibration software of its own.

The resistor must have sufficient Watt value that can meet the calibration need to control the change amount less than 15mA when a 20.00A current run over it for a long period.

C. DVM or RMS Voltmeter

The meter used for the output voltage measurement should have

0.1mV resolution (accuracy: 0.01%). For the output current measurement, the meter should have 0.001mV resolution(accuracy:

0.01%) to measure the voltage of the shunt, then transfer it to the corresponding current value.
