Perkin-Elmer STA 6000, Installation And Hardware Manual

Page: 43 / 84

Install an STA 6000 . 43
NOTE: For analyzers without an autosampler, a mini dry box accessory (P/N N5202070) is
available which sits on top of the furnace and is recommended to help prevent
condensation forming when the furnace is at low temperature in a humid
atmosphere. This accessory is not purged, so there is no need to connect a gas
supply to the dry box purge inlet on the instrument.
Connecting to the Chiller
CAUTION
ATTENTION
An appropriate fluid must be used with the chiller. Distilled water is
recommended for operation at temperatures between 10 °C and 90 °C.
Alternatively, normal tap water can be used. For operation at –20 °C to
100 °C, 50% ethylene glycol in water is recommended.
Un fluide approprié doit être utilisé avec le refroidisseur. L'eau distillée
est recommandée pour un fonctionnement à des températures
comprises entre 10 ° C et 90 ° C. Alternativement, l'eau de robinet
normale peut être utilisée. Pour une utilisation de -20 ° C à 100 ° C,
50% d'éthylène glycol dans l'eau sont recommandés.
CAUTION
ATTENTION
Ensure that the cooling air vents at the front and rear of the cooler are
not blocked. Maintain a minimum space of 15–20 cm.
Assurez-vous que les évents d'air de refroidissement à l'avant et à
l'arrière du refroidisseur ne sont pas bloqués. Maintenir un espace
minimum de 15-20 cm.
When using the chiller, connect the cooling supply to the STA 6000 as follows:
1. Make sure that the chiller is switched off but that its power cord is plugged into a power
supply.
2. Screw one of the barbed hose couplings shipped with the chiller into the OUTLET
connection on the chiller unit, and tighten with a suitable wrench.
Couplings suitable for several different hose sizes are provided with the chiller.
3. Push a hose (compatible with the desired coolant) onto the OUTLET coupling and
secure with a hose clamp.
4. Slide the other end of the hose over the metal tube labeled COOLING LIQUID IN on the
thermal analyzer. Place a hose clamp around the hose and metal tube to secure the
hose in place.
5. Screw a barbed hose coupling into the INLET connection on the chiller unit, and tighten
with a suitable wrench.
6. Push a hose onto the INLET coupling and secure with a hose clamp.
7. Connect the other end of the hose to the COOLING LIQUID OUT connector on the
analyzer. Place a hose clamp around the hose and the metal tube to secure the hose in
place.
