Regulators
Customers must supply the appropriate gas regulators for the gas supplies. The required
gas regulators are listed in the Gas Regulators table of the Recommended Supplies section.
Ventilation
The customer must supply ventilation as required by local bylaws and regulations for the
roughing pump(s) and the source exhaust pump. The maximum flow rate of these pumps
is a volume less than 30 L/min.
NOTE:
For installations where the optional installation kit has been purchased, venting
of the roughing pump(s) is not necessary as a smoke eliminator has been included.
WARNING! Use qualified personnel for the installation of plumbing and
fixtures, and ensure that all installations follow local bylaws and biohazard
regulations.
WARNING! It is strongly recommended that the source exhaust system be
used and that the exhaust be safely removed from the laboratory
environment.
