Tighten each output terminal screw at an appropriate
torque value. If the product is used with the screw
loosened, product combustion may result due to heat
generated in the terminal board.
Do not block the circulation of air by convection around the
product. If so, shorting or combustion of the output
elements may result from abnormal heat generation.
If ambient temperatures rise due to self-heating of this
product, install forced ventilation fans so that the product
can be fully ventilated.
Do not apply overvoltage or overcurrent to this product. If
so, its output elements may be damaged.

All the dimensions of SSJ-15, SSJ-25 and SSJ-45 is the
same.
When the instrument is mounted to the heat radiation
fin
When fixing the radiating fin to this instrument, tighten it with
the recommended tightening torque as shown in the
following table. Also in this case, apply silicone grease
(G-746 manufactured by Shin-Etsu Silicones or equal) to the
radiating portion of this instrument.
Firmly fix the radiating fin to the instrument with
the specified torque. Insufficient tightening may
cause insufficient radiation.

3.1 Wiring Cautions
Separate wiring on the input side of this instrument from
that on the output side.
This instrument may malfunction if its input side is
affected by noise. In that case, take the following
measures.
- Keep input wiring as short as possible.
- Use twisted pair or shielding wires.
Use wires satisfying the rated current capacity.
If current exceeding the rated surge current flows
through the output side, the internal element of this
product may be damaged. In order to protect the internal
element, install a fuse in series with the load on the
output side.
This instrument conforms to EN55011 Noise Terminal
Voltage with a capacitor connected as shown in the
following.
Use the solderless terminal appropriate to the screw
size. In addition, imperfect terminal screw tightening may
result in product combustion due to heat generation
while the power is being turned on. Therefore, tighten
each terminal screw at an appropriate torque value.
