Table 1.4 defines the electrical requirements.
NOTE
All AC devices are at 50/60 Hz.
Air, Vacuum, and System Fluid Requirements
Depending on configuration, the Biomek NX
P
instrument may require compressed air, a vacuum
supply, or system fluid.
Air Supply Requirements (NX-MC and NX-S8 with a Microplate Shaking ALP only)
Make sure the site has the following available at the lab bench:
•
60 – 100 psi of clean dry air (276 - 690 kPa)
NOTE
An external filter/regulator may be required to meet air pressure requirements.
• Air flow of 2.25 cfm @ 60 psi (0.064 m3/min @ 276 kPa)
NOTE
Make sure the lab site has a clean, dry air supply available at the lab bench.
• A 1/4 in. or 1/8 in. NPT female fitting to connect the air supply to the quick disconnect fitting
and 1/4” OD tubing supplied with the Biomek NX

NOTE
If house air is not available, or if house air will not consistently provide the recommended
pressure, an air compressor or air cylinder may be used to provide the required supply (see
Figure 1.1 ).
