Preparing Your Laboratory
• Space requirements are approximately 80 cm (31.5 in.) x 100cm (39.4 in.) x
90cm (35.4 in.) (D x W x H).
• The table or bench the instrument or bench must be able to support at least 53
kg (117 lb).
• Electrical connection is 230V; 50/ 60Hz.
Exhaust Line Venting Requirements
The exhaust line venting should have a capacity of at least 75CFM.
Lab Space Requirements
Make sure the vent opening on the back, left and right side of the unit are not
covered. The unit requires at least 15 cm of clearance on the back, left and right
side.
The external fan/aspiration of the oven should be vented to the outdoors or be
connected to an exhaust system.
The oven must not be set up in wet conditions (it is not resistant to water sprays)
and not under the extraction hood/exhaust (increased risk of corrosion). We
recommend setting the unit up next to the extraction hood/exhaust in order to lead
the vent hoses to this extraction hood/exhaust.
Note
You are responsible for assuring that appropriate ventilation of toxic gases
is assured. Make sure that all ventilation procedures conform to applicable
laws.
Note
PerkinElmer offers a bench specifically designed for the Titan MPS and its
accessories. This bench (Part No. N0777900) is very useful in labs which
are tight on bench space or which require frequent repositioning of the
instrument. the bench is 74 cm (29 inches) high.
