Positioning the SL/SLx
Temperature and Humidity Considerations
The
SL/SLx
should
be
operated
in
a
well
‐
ventilated
location
with
a
temperature
between
10°C
(50°F)
and
32°C
(90°F)
with
relative
humidity
between
20
and
80%,
non
‐
condensing.
Electrical Requirements
North American Installation
The
SL/SLx
is
equipped
with
a
hospital
grade
(green
dot)
three
‐
wire
grounding
plug.
When
choosing
a
location,
ensure
that
a
grounding
‐
type
AC
receptacle
is
available,
as
it
is
required
for
safe
operation.
Installation Outside of North America
When
the
SL/SLx
is
shipped,
IRIDEX
customer
support
will
ensure
that
the
power
cord
included
in
the
packaging
is
appropriate
for
local
operation.
Replacement
cords
may
be
ordered
to
match
the
IEC320
power
inlet
with
local
electrical
standards.
Always
use
a
three
‐
wire
grounding
cord
set.
Do
not
alter
the
power
inlet,
as
it
contains
protective
fusing.
Follow
local
electrical
codes
before
installing
the
SL/SLx
to
ensure
proper
grounding.
Physical Location Considerations
Place
the
SL/SLx
on
a
flat
table,
existing
operating
room
equipment
or
cart.
WARNING:
Do
not
defeat
the
purpose
of
the
grounding
pin.
This
equipment
is
intended
to
be
electrically
grounded.
Contact
a
licensed
electrician
if
the
desired
outlet
prevents
insertion
of
the
grounding
pin.
CAUTION:
Do
not
position
or
use
the
SL/SLx
near
open
flames,
compressed
oxygen
or
other
flammables.
CAUTION:
Allow
enough
space
between
the
console
and
the
electrical
outlet
to
permit
access
to
the
plug
at
all
times.
