Lotem 400 / Lotem 400 Quantum Family Site Preparation Guide
Electrical
The dedicated branch circuit for the following components must be supplied from
the same AC supply panel to ensure that both branch circuits are at the same
ground potential:
•
Output device main power
•
Workstation main power
Figure 3 shows the configuration of the receptacles used by the output devices and
peripheral equipment.

Power Quality
Before installing the device, a power monitor should be placed at the site to
measure power quality for one week
1
. If the power quality at the customer site is
outside Creo specifications (+6%/–10%), the customer should purchase a line
conditioner, 3000 VA, for the Lotem 400 / Lotem 400 Quantum Family circuit
from a local supplier.
If there are concerns about power quality (blackouts or brownouts) at the
customer site, an online uninterruptible power supply (UPS) device can be ordered
directly from a local supplier. A UPS is designed to allow the correct and complete
shutdown of the device, as opposed to a line conditioner that is designed to allow
the device to function for extended periods of time where the power conditions
may be outside of the Lotem 400 / Lotem 400 Quantum specifications.
UPS specifications are available from the supplier.
Special Precautions
The plug(s) on the power cord(s) of the workstation are intended for each separate
device. Therefore, the branch circuit receptacle(s) must be installed near the
workstation and be easily accessible.

1. Creo America has a contract with Re Monitoring Services in Manchester, NH to
provide power and environmental site surveys for the NAFTA region. The monitoring
service includes voltage, current, temperature, humidity, dust and air pressure. Rx
Monitoring Services will provide the equipment to be installed at the customer site for
a maximum of 10 days. They will then monitor it and send a report via e-mail. Outside
North America, contact your local product support specialist.
