Placement of Equipment
The area required for the instrument (see drawing below) is approximately 41” wide by 30” deep by 21” high (104 cm x 76 cm x 53 cm). Leave
sufficient space beside the instrument and behind the instrument for cooling fan exhaust. Do not block rear panel vents or fans. The ultraCUBE may
be placed under the bench.
Power Requirements
Provide at least four standard outlets, one for the laptop computer, one for the LE220-plus, one for the CH05, and one for the WCS 2.0.
Your system draws a maximum of 12.5A. All components are configured with universal power supplies.
Note
: to avoid derating the CH05
cooling capacity, the CH05 may be used with a step-up transformer if operated at less than 115 VAC.
Water Requirements
The instrument’s water bath requires about 5.0 liters of either deionized or distilled water, which should be topped up daily. The water
should be changed and cleaning protocol with 10% bleach or equivalent solution performed at least once a month.
