Installation & Operation Notes
For optimal performance: ensure minimum 1900mm clearance to grounded objects, maintain water conductivity between 0.1-2 μS/cm, and verify cooling water temperature does not exceed 20°C. The 35° terminal angle provides optimal stress distribution during high voltage tests. The system requires proper grounding per IEC 61936 standards.
