Compact flash systems store electrical energy in capacitors by
applying high voltages. These form a source of danger, which
must be carefully excluded. Besides general rules on handling
electrical appliances, the following safety measurements must
be observed. Therefore read and comply the safety hints (also
see the paragraph Starting up) within the user manual before
turning the appliance on.
The present compact flash unit is meant for studio use of
professional photographers. Its task is to provide electrical
energy for HENSEL flash lighting.
The appliance may not be used for any other purpose than that
described above, especially not for other electrical appliances.
Flashtubes generate high pressure during operation and
can therefore explode. For this reason it is a must to
protect the flash light in case of danger for persons or
objects or if fire could be initiated.

Contact with the capacitor voltage is perilous, and therefore
opening of the case of the eFLASH compact flash unit and
repairs must only be made by authorized customer service.
