5.1.4 Connecting to the electricity source
Most modules require a separate, grounded power source. The ground connection in
the power outlet must be common and physically close to the module.
Note:
Some column modules receive their power from the sample manager via the
interconnect cable.
Warning:
To avoid electrical shock, observe these precautions:
• Use SVT-type power cord in the United States and HAR-type power cord,
or better, in Europe. For requirements elsewhere, contact your local
Waters distributor.
• Inspect the power cord for damage, and replace it, if necessary.
• Power-off and unplug each module before performing any maintenance
operation on it.
• Connect each module to a common ground.
Recommendation:
Use a line conditioner and uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
for optimum, long-term, input-voltage stability.
To connect to the electricity source:
1.
Connect the female end of the power cord to the receptacle on the rear panel
of the module.
2.
Connect the male end of the power cord to a suitable wall outlet.

rear panel of each instrument.
