Overview
NOTE: The first-time installation of your instrument will be carried out by a PerkinElmer
Service Engineer. The following information is for reference only.
Site Requirements
For maximum stability and minimum maintenance, observe the following requirements when
choosing where to site the instrument:
•
A firm base, free from vibration;
•
Enough space around and underneath the instrument for efficient air circulation, as
shown in Figure 12;
•
A constant temperature between 15 °C and 35 °C;
•
A constant relative humidity of between 20% and 80%;
•
An atmosphere free from dust and corrosive fumes;
•
Out of direct sunlight (illumination with diffuse lighting is ideal);
•
A suitable source of electrical power in the vicinity of the instrument, in this case a
proper earth-grounded 3-wire electrical outlet. The power requirements are
90 VAC–250 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 250 VA.
The standard sample compartment baseplates have drain holes in them to run off spilled
liquids to the benchtop underneath the instrument. If required, place a sheet of thick filter
paper under the instrument.
