| Model Number | G3170A, G3171A, G3172A, G3174A |
|---|---|
| Voltage Fluctuation Tolerance | +5% or -10% from rated voltage |
| Environmental Category | Category II |
Many internal parts carry dangerous voltages; never remove covers unless instructed. Wear a grounded wrist strap to prevent electrostatic discharge. Avoid touching hot parts and use gloves and wrenches when necessary.
The instrument requires a stable power supply with voltage fluctuations no more than +5% or -10% from rated voltage. It must be installed in a Category II environment as defined in IEC 664.
Available models include 5975 VL MSD (G3170A), 5975 inert MSD (G3171A, G3172A), and 5975 inert XL MSD (G3174A), each with different ionization modes.
