Power Specification: All electrical supplies must be smooth, clean, and free of
line transients greater than 40 V peak to peak and must
meet and remain within the following tolerances:
120 VAC ±10% @ 50/60 Hz ±1%
230 VAC ±10% @ 50/60 Hz ±1%
Instruments and peripherals should not be connected to
circuits with large inductive or large and frequent loads
(i.e., large motors, discharge lamps, photocopy systems,
radio transmitters, etc.).
Power Outlets: A minimum of one dedicated 120 VAC outlet at 20 A or
one 230 VAC outlet at 10 A (minimum) is required for
the GC. Additional equipment, such as computers and
printers, should be connected per their specifications.
Safety Requirements:
Gas Cylinders and
Gas Delivery Lines:
All gas cylinders should be firmly clamped to a
suitable surface. Care must be taken not to
kink or overstress the gas delivery lines.
Hydrogen: Ensure that all hydrogen lines and connections
are leak-free. When using a hydrogen tank,
install an in-line hydrogen snubber (P/N 0009-
0038) between the tank regulator and the
delivery tubing.
Ventilation: Always provide adequate ventilation. When
analyzing hazardous compounds, such as
pesticides, it may be necessary to arrange for
venting the detector effluent into a fume hood.
