Power Connection
§
Check the voltage rating and the plug
design.
$
Make sure that the voltage rating printed
on the manufacturer’s ID label is identi-
cal to that of your local line voltage.
If the voltage specified on the label or
the plug design of the AC adapter do not
match your country’s rating or standard,
please contact the nearest Sartorius
office or your equipment dealer.
The power connection must be made in
accordance with the regulations appli-
cable in your country. The device (pro-
tection class 1) must be plugged into a
properly installed wall outlet which has
a protective grounding conductor (PE)
Connecting the Analyzer to AC Power
Note:
The heating unit of the moisture ana-
lyzer has been factory-set to 230 V or
120V, depending on the information
given in your order. The voltage setting
is indicated on the manufacturer’s label;
for example:
– 230 volts: LMA200PM-...EU
– 115 volts: LMA200PM-...US
!
If the voltage setting is not correct,
do not operate the moisture analyzer!
The equipment must be modified by
a Sartorius service technician.
– Use only original power cords approved
by Sartorius or by a trained electri-
cian. If the cable supplied with the
AC adapter is not long enough, make
sure to use an extension cord that has
a grounding conductor. If you use an
electrical outlet that does not have a
protective grounding conductor, make
sure to have an equivalent protective
conductor installed by a certified elec-
trician as specified in the applicable
regulations for installation in your
country. Make sure the protective
grounding effect is not neutralized by
use of an extension cord that lacks a
protective grounding conductor.
and a fuse with maximum 16A. The
power plug or other suitable device for
disconnecting the power must be easily
accessible so the LMA200PM can be
disconnected quickly in case of hazard.
Safety Precautions
If you use an electrical outlet that
does not have a protective grounding
conductor, make sure to have an equiv-
alent protective conductor installed by
a certified electrician as specified in the
applicable regulations for installation in
your country. Make sure the protective
grounding effect is not neutralized by
use of an extension cord that lacks
a protective grounding conductor.

Switching on the LMA200PM
§
Press the on/off switch (17) to switch on the moisture analyzer.
Equipment not in Use
If the equipment will remain unused for only a short period, press the key (5) to switch
it to standby mode.
If it will remain unused for a long period, use the on/off switch (17) to switch it off.
Warmup Time
To deliver exact results, the weighing system in the LMA200PM
moisture analyzer must warm up for at least 30 minutes after initial
connection to AC power or after a relatively long power outage.
Only after this time will the system have reached the required operating
temperature.
Connecting
the Power Cord
§
Plug the power cord into
a wall outlet (mains)
that has been installed
in accordance with
industry standards and
is equipped with
a protective ground
(earth) conductor (PE).
Connecting Electronic Peripheral
Devices
§
Make absolutely sure to unplug the
scale from AC power before you con-
nect or disconnect a peripheral device
(printer, scanner or PC) to or from the
interface port.
