Warning:
To avoid electric shock, observe these precautions:
• The power cord functions as the safety disconnect device. Position the equipment
so that you can reach the power cord easily.
• Use SVT-type power cords in the United States and HAR-type power cords, or
better, in Europe. For requirements elsewhere, contact your local Waters distributor.
• Do not replace power cords with inadequately rated power cords.
• Inspect the power cords for damage and replace them if necessary.
• Connect each module of a system to a common ground.
• Power-off and unplug a system module or stand-alone device before performing
any maintenance operation on it.
Recommendation:
Use a line conditioner and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for optimum
long-term input-voltage stability.
To connect to a cart's electricity source:
1. Connect the female end of the cart's electrical cables (included in the startup kit) to the
receptacle on the rear panel of each system module.
2. Connect the hooded, male end of the cart's electrical cables to the power strips on its back.
3. Connect each power strip's cable to a wall outlet operating on its own circuit.
D.7 Connecting Ethernet cables (systems with ACQUITY LC)
Requirement:
Use shielded network cables with the mass spectrometer to ensure compliance
with FCC limits.
To make Ethernet connections:
1. Connect one end of one shielded Ethernet cable to the ACQUITY instrument’s network
switch, and then connect the free end to the Ethernet card on the preconfigured ACQUITY
workstation.
Tip:
On preconfigured systems, the Ethernet card is identified as the Instrument LAN card.
2. Connect one end of the other shielded Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port in the top, right-
hand corner of the mass spectrometer’s rear panel, and then connect the free end to the
ACQUITY instrument’s network switch.
