4-2 SAM12 User Manual Thermo Fisher Scientific
The door handle(s), manual, Calibration certificate, Keys,
Dongle and Mains power cord are packed inside the
measurement cubicle.
The Printer (if supplied) is packed in a separate carton. The
printer, printer cable and mains leads are packed inside the
measurement cubicle. Retain the packing for these items.
Remove the protective foam from the outer edge of the
stainless steel liner and door plate. It may be necessary to
remove any traces of adhesive with a suitable solvent cleaner.
The SAM12 should be left on the base pallet until it is at the
installation site in order to reduce the risk of damage during
transportation. The wooden base is designed to allow easy
fork-lift access.
The floor of the installation site should be level, even and
suitably robust in order to support the weight of the SAM12.
When at the installation site, remove and retain the plinth
mounting bolts and fixings. Lift the SAM12 off its wooden
base using the fork lifting channels provided.
CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN LIFTING - THE
SAM12 WEIGHS 1.5 TONS.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN DOORS UNTIL
THE TRANSIT SUPPORTS HAVE BEEN
REMOVED (see
Removing Door Transit Supports
(page 4-3)
).
The SAM12 is intended for indoor use only, and should not be
used where liquids can drip or be spilled onto the lid.
For best possible performance it is suggested that the SAM12
be positioned in the lowest stable background surroundings.
High background fields will reduce sensitivity and fluctuating
backgrounds may cause false alarms and operational delays
during background update periods.
The SAM12 has no specific ventilation requirements.
The SAM12 should be placed on as flat a surface as possible as
no means of levelling adjustment is provided on the cabinet.
Installation on a slope may affect operation of the door and
make opening awkward. Before finally positioning the
SAM12, it will be necessary to remove the four M10 transit
bolts securing it to the wooden base -
leave the door transit
supports in place until the SAM12 is physically installed
.
