Use the tape drive only in equipment where the combination has been determined
to be suitable by an appropriate certification organization (for example,
Underwriters Laboratories Inc. of the Canadian Standards Association in North
America). Consider the following safety points:
v Install the drive in an enclosure that limits the user’s access to live parts, gives
adequate system stability, and provides the necessary grounding for the drive.
v Provide the correct voltages (+5 V dc and +12 V dc) based on the regulation
applied — Extra Low Voltage (SEC) for UL and CSA and Safety Extra Low
Voltage for BSI and VDE (if applicable).
