READ SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Servicing:
These products are not customer serviceable. TDK-Lambda and their authorised agents
only are permitted to carry out repairs.
Critical Components:
These products are not authorised for use as critical components in nuclear control systems,
life support systems or equipment for use in hazardous environments without the express
written approval of the Managing Director of TDK-Lambda EMEA.
Product Usage:
These products are designed for use within a host equipment which restricts access to
authorised competent personnel.
This product is a component power supply and is only to be installed by qualified persons
within other equipment and must not be operated as a stand-alone product.
This product is for sale to business to business customers and can be obtained via
distribution channels. It is not intended for sale to end users.
This product is a component power supply and complies with the EMC directive. The
EMC performance of a component power supply will be affected by the final installation,
compliance to the stated EMC standards and conformance to the EMC Directive must be
confirmed after installation by the final equipment manufacturer.
For guidance with respect to test conditions please visit our website at https://emea.tdk-

End of Life Disposal:
The unit contains components that require special disposal. Make sure that the unit is
properly disposed of at the end of its service life and in accordance with local regulations.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
High Voltage Warning:
Dangerous voltages are present within the power supply. The professional installer must
protect service personnel from inadvertent contact with these dangerous voltages in the
end equipment.
WARNING: When installed in a Class I end equipment, this product must be reliably
earthed and professionally installed.
The (+) or (-) output(s) can be earthed or left floating. The unit cover(s)/chassis must not be
made user accessible. The mains input connector is not acceptable for use as field wiring
terminals. Do not use mounting screws, which penetrate the unit more than 3mm (FPS/
RFE1000), 6mm (HFE/RFE1600/2500 & racks). Special earthing screws are used on these
products which connect the cover to the chassis. They must not be removed. If they are
removed by mistake, they must be replaced with new ones and the product tested for
earth bonding.
This unit must be securely mounted and its earth terminal/baseplate properly boned to
the main protective earth before any connection to the MAINS supply is made. An internal
fuse protects the unit and must not be replaced by the user. In case of internal defect,
the unit must be returned to TDK-Lambda or one of their authorised agents. A suitable
mechanical, electrical and fire enclosure must be provided by the end use equipment for
mechanical, electric shock and fire hazard protection.
Energy Hazards:
Certain modules are capable of providing hazardous energy (240VA) according to output
voltage setting. Final equipment manufacturers must provide protection to service
personnel against inadvertent contact with these module output terminals. If set such,
that hazardous energy can occur, then the module terminals or connections must not
be user accessible.
Disconnect device: An appropriate disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building
installation wiring. Refer to the user manual of the specific model for more details.
Rack mounting safety instructions:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the
operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient.
Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment
