Warnings and Cautions
There are two types of warnings in this manual:
The following symbols are used in this manual:
Product Safety Labeling
The following labels are placed on the Matrix APAX product:
WARNING
WARNING describes situations that can lead to serious faults,
physical injuries, or even death.
Caution
Caution describes situations that can lead to malfunction or
possible equipment damage.
WARNING
High Voltage Warning: warns of situations that dangerously
high voltage is involved. Failure to use proper precautions may
lead to serious injury or even death.
WARNING
General Warning: warns of situations that can result in serious
injury or death if proper precautions are not used.
Caution
General Caution: identifies situations that could lead to
malfunction or possible equipment damage.
Label notes to installer to refer to instruction manual first before
installing.
High Voltage: surfaces on product can have high voltage which can
cause injury.
Wait five minutes for capacitors to discharge. Verify safe voltage
level before servicing.
Connect Thermal Switch: connecting the thermal switch can reduce
risk of damage.

General Safety Instructions
WARNING
High Voltage! Only a qualified electrician can carry out the electrical
installation of this filter.
High voltage is used in the operation of this filter. Use Extreme caution to
avoid contact with high voltage when operating, installing or repairing this
filter.
Injury or death may result if safety precautions are not
observed.
WARNING
The opening of the branch circuit protective device may be an indication
that a fault current has been interrupted. To reduce the risk of fire or
electrical shock, current-carrying parts and other components of the filter
should be examined and replaced if damaged.
An upstream disconnect/protection device must be used as required by
the National Electrical Code (NEC) or governing authority.
Even if the upstream disconnect/protection device is open, the drive down
stream of the filter may feedback high voltage to the filter. The drive
safety instructions must be followed. Injury or death may result if safety
precautions are not observed.
The filter must be grounded with a grounding conductor connected to all
grounding terminals.
Only spare parts obtained from MTE Corporation or an authorized MTE
distributor can be used.
After removing power, allow at least five minutes to elapse and verify that
the capacitors have discharged to a safe level before contacting internal
components. Connect a DC voltmeter across the capacitor terminals and
ensure that the voltage is at a safe level.
Caution
Loose or improperly secured connections may damage or degrade filter
performance. Visually inspect and secure all electrical connections before
power is applied to the filter.
Product should not be mounted on wood or any other combustible
surface. Doing so could lead to fire or damage to the product.
The user of this filter must assure that the input voltage and frequency is
correct for the filter rating and that the voltage applied falls within the
rated operating tolerance envelop specified for the filter. For sever power
line applications where the power feed is likely to experience surges and
transients that exceed the input voltage rating, it is recommended that a
TVSS (Transient Voltage Surge Suppression) or SPD (Surge Protection
Device) be deployed ahead of the filter to reduce the possibility of
exceeding the filter rated voltage. Consult with TVSS or SPD
manufacturer to determine the correct protection for your power line
conditions.
Filter must be mounted in the proper orientation per labeling.
Fans must be operating properly before powering up the filter.
