4. Notify the Micromeritics Service Department of the defect and request shipping 

instructions. The service department will assign a Returned Materials Authorization 
(RMA) number. Write the RMA number on the outside of the shipping carton.

Installing the AquaPrep

Ideally, the AquaPrep should be placed next to the liquid sample handling module of the 
DigiSizer (illustrated below). This allows for easy transfer of the container of deaerated water 
from the AquaPrep to the sample handing module.

Selecting the Input Power

All instruments leave the factory set for 120 VAC and with the line fuse removed. The correct 
setting of the universal power entrance must be checked and the appropriate fuse installed 
before the AquaPrep can be operated. The AquaPrep is designed to operate with 100, 120, 
220, or 240 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz. Voltage selection and fusing are made at the power connector, 
which is located on the rear panel of the unit. 

Do not connect the power cord until after you have verified the input power.

1. Make sure the power cord is not connected to the AquaPrep.

The power cord should be disconnected from the AquaPrep before removing the 
cover from the input power connector. Failure to disconnect the power cord could 
result in electrical shock.
