WARNING
High Voltage
Do not attempt to disassemble the instrument. Please contact our service
department.
AC power input should be within the voltage range specified on the rear
panel. Please ensure that the correct fuse is installed prior to applying power for the
first time.
To avoid electrical shock, the power cord protective grounding conductor
must be grounded.
In order to protect against fire, replace the fuse with the specified type only.
Make sure to disconnect the power cord before replacing the fuse. A blown fuse is
indicative of a problem with the instrument. The problem must be repaired before
replacing the fuse.
It is important to always keep the front panel connectors clean.
Disconnect the AC power cord from the instrument before cleaning. Use a soft cloth
dipped in a solution of mild detergent and water. Do not spray any liquid onto the
unit. Do not use any cleaners containing benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone and/or
any other harsh chemicals.

Do not exceed +3 dBm into the RF INPUT.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the instrument.
Avoid any rough handling that could damage the ACS-250-25W unit.
Use electrostatic discharge precautions while handling and making connections to
the ACS-250-25W unit.
Do not insert wires into the connectors of the ACS-250-25W. Make proper
connection with mating connectors and/or adapters.
Do not block or obstruct the cooling fan vents located on the top, side and rear side
of the unit.

Introduction
Com-Power model ACS-230-25W series broadband amplifiers operate from 150 kHz to 230
MHz. This amplifier can be used for EMI immunity testing that requires generating electric
fields. This small and lightweight amplifier utilizes class AB linear power devices that
provide high gain, and wide dynamic range. By employing advanced components, the
Com-Power ACS-230-25W amplifier is able to achieve high efficiency operation and
reliability.
