4 Installation Procedures
This section provides instructions to install Q-Base and connect it to the local network.
4.1 Site requirements
Q-Base must be connected to the same network as the QIAcube Connect instrument and the tablet.
Q-Base does not need to be located in close proximity to enable proper connection to the QIAcube
Connect.
4.2 Power requirements
Q-Base requires the following power supply: 100–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz
The included power supply transforms the voltage to the operational voltage of 6-36 V DC. Ensure
that the voltage rating of the Q-Base is compatible with the AC voltage available at the installation
site. Mains supply voltage fluctuations are not to exceed 10% of nominal supply voltages.
Important : The power connector is NOT protected against short circuit. Always include an external
fuse to protect the product.
