4.4.2. Tubing Requirements
Temperature or humidity variation along the length of tubing may affect gas purity. When possi-
ble, avoid placing the generator in a separate room and running tubing through walls and ceilings.
When tubing is open to atmosphere, it’s recommended to purge the lines before connecting to the
instrument.
Additional generator-approved tubing is available from Parker Hannifin. Any tubing used must be
phthalate-free. Use of non-approved tubing may reduce gas purity. See Section 8 for ordering
details.
4.4.3. Electrical Supply Requirements
Parker supplies a step-up transformer for installations where the voltage may drop below
195VAC and a step-down transformer if the facility voltage may reach 255 VAC or higher. See
Section 8 for ordering details.
Do not position the equipment so that it is difficult to operate or disconnect the plug from
the electrical supply. The equipment is connected to protective earth (ground) through
the power cord. It is essential that electrical supply is equipped with a protective earth
(ground) terminal. Do not use alternative power cords.
Location of the generator with proper ventilation is critical. Install the generator in a clean, well
ventilated area. To provide adequate ventilation and access for service, a minimum of 6 inches
clearance is required behind the generator (see Figure 11). Fresh intake air enters from un
-
derneath the generator at the rear. Warm exhaust air exits from the left, rear side, which must
always be kept clear. A minimum of 12 inches clearance is required on the left side of the
generator (see Figure 11).
