1.4 Information on product safety and protective measures

DANGER Lethal electric shock and radioactive contamination hazards exist.
- While troubleshooting or servicing,
individuals can come into contact with dangerous
components.
- Some tests and adjustments must be performed
with the radiation turned on.
Disregarding the safety instructions will lead to death or serious

bodily injury.
¹ When performing service and tests always observe:

¹ - the product-specific safety information contained in
the technical documentation,
¹ - and the general safety information (TD00-000.860.01...).
¹
¹ Remove or install components only if:
¹ - the system is switched off, and
¹ - the capacitors are discharged, and
¹ - the ESD guidelines are followed, and
¹ - for the XP Hybrid, the batteries are disconnected.
¹
¹ Tests and adjustments that must be performed with the
radiation switched on are marked by this radiation warn-
ing icon. The required radiation protection measures
must be followed for these adjustments.

DANGER Lethal shock hazard exists.

Anyone performing troubleshooting and/or service with the safety
covers off may come into contact with live parts. This hazard ex-
ists as long as:
- the power supply is connected;
- the capacitor bank or individual capacitors are still charged; ca-
pacitors may still be charged even when the system is switched off
and the power cord is disconnected (e.g. due to defective fuses)!
- the battery blocks in the XP Hybrid are connected!
Disregarding the safety instructions will lead to death or serious

bodily injury.
¹ Make sure that no parts or tools fall into the unit;

¹ Do not touch potentially dangerous
components(Fig. 2 / p. 10)
¹ If loose parts must be removed from the unit, use only
insulated tools;
¹ Protect the work area so that no other persons are able
touch the unit while the covers are open or removed!
• Switch the unit off before servicing or maintenance. Always disconnect the power plug
first.
• XP Hybrid: Make sure that the main switch and the battery mode are switched off.
• The capacitor bank discharges to < 40 V in approx. 15 minutes.
• The safety covers can be removed after this period has elapsed. The locations with
dangerous voltage still require extreme caution (see (Fig. 2 / p. 10)).
