11.4.1 Operation with High Efficiency Filtration 
Kit

The flow and operation time of the LSU will be 
reduced when the Vacuum Connector Tubing is 
replaced with a High Efficiency Filtration Kit. 

The LSU with High Efficiency Filtration Kit 
installed is in accordance with ISO 10079-1.

The filter has an efficiency of 99.97% down to a 
particle size of 0.3 μm.

11.5 Power Requirements 

Operating/charging AC:** 100-240 VAC +10%/-
15%, 50-60 Hz +/- 3 Hz (100-240 VAC),
Operating/charging DC:** 12-28 VDC +/-10%.
Battery: 12 VDC 2 Ah, NiMH, rechargeable, 12 
VDC 2 Ah, Sealed Lead - Acid, rechargeable 
Charging Time: 3 hours for approx. 80% battery 
capacity, 24 hours for fully charged.
Fuses: The LSU has no fuses to be replaced by 
the user (see section 9).

** The external AC power source must be able 
to deliver a current of min. 1A and the external
DC power source min. 6A, if not the LSU may 
switch to battery operation.
