2 INSTALLATION
2.A INSTRUCTIONS AND CHECKS ON DELIVERY
Considering the critical nature of the use of the FLOWFAST H cabinet and the need to keep it in optimum condition,
installation is very important.
FLOWFAST H cabinets are positioned on a pallet, wrapped in an extensible film and contained in a package of
multi-layer strapped cardboard.
After placing the cabinet in its site of use, opening the package and removing the extensible film, check that the
equipment has not suffered any dents or scratches due to transport or improper handling of the package.
In case of any further transport, packing and storage by the user after the initial period of use (e.g.: change of
laboratory or factory), contact the technical assistance service or the distributor for more accurate and precise
instructions or for assistance by specialized technicians.
2.B INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Install the cabinet away from drafts and heat sources (radiators, ventilators/convectors), to ensure proper
functioning.
Install the cabinet in a well-ventilated room with a low degree of dust.
The distance between the cabinet and the room ceiling should be at least 10 cm.
Place the cabinet away from doors and windows, which may cause malfunctions
Place the cabinet in places where there is little human traffic.
The door of the room should be in such a position relative to the cabinet that drafts are prevented.
Use the cabinet whenever possible, together with the external exhaust system package, which should always be
sheltered from rain.
The temperature should never fall below 0°C to prevent the humidity present in the filtering screen from freezing,
which might damage the filters' meshes:
-
max. temperature: 40 °C
-
max. humidity: 80 % at 30°C, linear drop in relative humidity down to 50% relative humidity at 40°C.
Before connecting the cabinet to the mains power supply, check the necessary voltage and power
indicated on the plate near the power cable.
The room must be equipped with an earth connection and connections to the gas and/or vacuum
networks, and an air exhaust duct must be installed outside the building.
For the connection to the gas and/or vacuum networks, read carefully chapter 2C.
The installation is made by technicians authorized by Faster s.r.l.
