The SMP40 can accommodate up to three sample
capillaries. For accurate melting point
determinations it is recommended that three
samples of the same material are prepared in the
same way and analysed at the same time. The
average of the three capillaries results can then
be reported as the substances melting point.
4. Preparation for Use
4.1 Electrical Installation
THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED
Before connecting the instrument, please read
and understand these instructions and ensure
that the electrical supply corresponds to that
shown on the rating plate. This unit is designed
for use with a supply rated at 115/230V,
50-60Hz. The power consumption of the unit is
60W. The unit is fitted with an IEC socket at the
side of the instrument for connection of the
mains lead.
Caution: Fuses are fitted in both live and
neutral lines.
The unit is supplied with two mains leads fitted
with IEC plugs. One lead has a UK 3 pin plug and
the other has a 2 pin “Shuko” plug for
connection to the mains supply. Choose the lead
appropriate for your electrical installation and
discard the other. Should neither lead be suitable
take the lead with the UK plug and replace the
plug with a suitable alternative. This involves
cutting off the moulded plug, preparing the cable
and connecting to the rewireable plug in
accordance with its instructions.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THIS OPERATION
SHOULD ONLY BE UNDERTAKEN BY A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Refer to the equipment’s rating plate to ensure
that the plug and fusing are suitable for the
voltage and wattage stated. The wires in the
mains cable are coloured as follows:
LIVE
BROWN
NEUTRAL
BLUE
EARTH
GREEN/YELLOW
The appropriate mains lead should be connected
to the instrument BEFORE connection to the
mains supply. Should the mains lead require
replacement, a cable of 1mm
2
of harmonised
code H05VV-F connected to an IEC320 plug
should be used. The UK mains lead is protected
by a 10A fuse mounted in the plug top.
4.2 Installation
Connect the unit to the electricity supply but DO
NOT SWITCH ON. Place the unit on a firm, level,
non-slip surface ensuring that there is sufficient
free space on all sides without coming into
contact with anything else during use. Switch the
unit ON at the mains On/Off switch on the side
of the instrument. When switched ON, the touch
screen display will illuminate and the interface
software will load within 30 seconds.
IF IN DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN
The sample block will become hot during
operation.
