4.2  Starting the equipment 
 

Connect the generator to electrical supply and switch it on at the wall socket. Turn the generator on ( I ) at the power switch (located 
on the rear of the generator) and wait. 
 
The generator will perform a system check during which time the water bottle indicators will illuminate white then yellow, the system 
check LED will flash, and the software version number, generator serial number and the company banner will be displayed on the 
LCD. 
 
Upon completion, the generator will enter INITIALIZING mode while the purifier is heating.  Once complete it will revert to the default 
menu as shown in figure 10. 
 

Note:

 Upon first use the generator may appear to stop building pressure while the separation chamber fills with water. Should this 

happen, restart the generator. The internal pressure (“ACT” pressure) of the generator will build up to the required operating 
pressur

e (“SET” pressure). Once the required pressure is reached, the outlet valve of the generator will be opened, as indicated by 

“LOAD  ” on the display shown in figure 9, and hydrogen will be supplied to the application instrument.  
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Figure 9 

 

 

If the generator is being powered for the first time, it will take approximately 48 hours for the generator to reach 
the purity specified. 
 

 

During start-up the generator may revert to the last error mode it experienced. If this occurs press  

. When the error is cleared 

the generator will continue with the startup procedure. If the error cannot be cleared by this method follow the fault finding procedure 
in section 6 of this user guide.
