3.2 Unpacking
Carefully unpack and place the instrument and
accessories in a secure location. Ensure that all
parts listed on the packing list are present. Inspect
the unit and all accessories for damage. If any
damage is found, keep all packing materials and
immediately report the damage to the carrier. We
will assist you with your claim, if requested. When
submitting a claim for shipping damage, request
that the carrier inspect the shipping container and
equipment. Do not return goods to Koehler without
written authorization.
3.3 Setup
Equipment Placement.
Place the instrument on a
firm, level table in an area with adequate
ventilation or in a hood. The unit may be leveled
by making minor turning adjustments to the feet
located at the base of the unit. Please note that
Koehler does not supply a level with this
equipment.
Ventilation.
A fume hood or exhaust system is
required when operating the unit. Flammable
vapors and/or steam are generated during
operation and must not be permitted to
accumulate. A canopy-style hood may be used if
the height from the top of the unit to the canopy is
5 feet or less. The exhaust blower should have a
rating of 1000 C.F.M. or greater.
Power.
Connect the line cords to properly fused
and grounded receptacles with the correct voltage
as indicated in section 1.3 or on the back of the
unit.
WARNING:
For safety, disconnect the power
when
performing
any
maintenance
and/or
cleaning.
Do
NOT
turn the power on unless the
bath is filled with the proper medium; otherwise,
damage may occur to the unit and the warranty
will be void.
Air Supply Requirement.
This unit requires an air
source capable of supplying a flow rate of 94
mL/min per test cell. The air should be free from
moisture, oil, and particulate matter. A drying
tower should be incorporated to remove any
contaminants. Air inlet pressure should not exceed
10 psi.
NOTE:
Koehler Instrument does not supply air
source required for running instrumentation.
