CHAPTER 2
INSTALLATION
Installation of the Model 1160 zero air supply includes lifting and unpacking the
instrument, connecting the compressor, connecting the gas flow lines, and attachment to
suitable AC power.
LIFTING
A procedure appropriate to lifting a heavy object should be used when lifting the zero air
supply. This procedure consists of bending at the knees while keeping your back straight
and upright. The case should be grasped at the bottom, in the front and at the rear of the
unit. Do not attempt to lift by the cover or other external fittings. While one person may
lift the unit, it is desirable to have two persons lifting, one by grasping the bottom in the
front and the other by grasping the bottom in the rear.
UNPACKING
The Thermo Scientific Model 1160 Zero Air Supply is shipped in one container. If, upon
receipt, there is obvious damage to the shipping container, notify the carrier immediately
and hold for his inspection. The carrier, and not Thermo Fisher Scientific, is responsible
for any damage done during shipment.
To unpack the Model 1160 Zero Air Supply, follow the procedure outlined below:
1. Remove the Model 1160 from the shipping container and set on a table or
bench that allows easy access to both the front and rear of the instrument.
2. Remove the Model 1160 cover from the main frame of the unit, to expose
the internal components of the instrument.
3. Check for possible damage during shipment.
4. Reinstall the cover.
