Safety Instructions - HQ Power PS603 Mode D'emploi

4. Safety Instructions

• Although the device has a current limit protection, if an overload or short-circuit occurs, the device should be
powered down and the overload or short-circuit should be removed as soon as possible.
• Keep this device away from rain and moisture, dust and combustible gases, fumes or solvents.
• Select a location where the device is protected against extreme temperatures, away from heating devices.
• Damage caused by user modifications or disregard of certain guidelines in this manual is not covered by the
warranty and the dealer will not accept responsibility for any ensuing injuries, defects or problems.
• Do not switch the device on immediately after it has been exposed to changes in temperature. Protect the device
against damage by leaving it switched off until it has reached room temperature.
• Never cover or obstruct cooling slots; this may cause overheating.
• The device left the factory in a technically safe condition. To maintain this condition and to ensure safe operation,
it is essential for the user to observe the safety instructions and warning notes contained in this manual.
• This device falls under protection class I. It is therefore essential that the device be connected to a 230Vac
earthed mains power supply.
• Keep the device away from children and unauthorised users.
• Replace a defective fuse only with a fuse of the same type and rating.
• It is not recommended to wear conductive metal jewellery (rings, bracelets etc.) while operating power supplies.
• Do not leave power supplies and loads switched on without supervision.
• Make sure the power supply outputs, contact points and power leads are undamaged and sufficiently insulated.
• Do not continue to use the device and have it repaired when it looks damaged or does not work normally.
• Disconnect the device from the mains to clean it or when it is not in use. Handle the power cord by the plug only.
• Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.
• Only use the device for its intended purpose. All other uses may lead to short circuits, burns, electroshocks,
crash, etc. Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.
5. Operation
• When the current limiter indicator (fig. p.1 #11) lights up, the load is drawing too much current. Reduce the load.
• The values given by the current and voltage displays (fig. p.1 #3 & 4) are indicative. For accurate readout please
use a calibrated external meter.
• In case of a blown fuse: the fuse holder is located at the back of the device. Open it with a screwdriver, replace
the fuse by a fuse with the same characteristics (see table p.1) and screw the fuse holder back into place.
a. 0~30V Output
1. Set the voltage knob (fig. p.1 #9) to the required voltage and the current knob (fig. p.1 #10) fully counterclockwise.
2. Switch the power supply on by means of the power button (fig. p.1 #7) and connect the load.
3. Turn the current knob (fig. p.1 #10) clockwise to the required current.
b. 12V/1A and 5V/1A Outputs
These outputs have a fixed voltage and maximum current output; no further adjustment is necessary.
