5.1

 

Unpacking and Preparation 

 

 

a.

 

Before opening the shipping/transport container and unpacking the system, inspect the 

outside of the container thoroughly for any signs of mishandling or damage during 

shipping. Report any damage to the shipping carrier immediately and do not proceed 

with unpacking. Since the shipment is made FOB factory, you should consult your 

administration concerning claims for shipping damage.  Please notify DEMTECH 

Services, Inc. immediately in writing of any shipping damage. 

 

b.

 

Unlatch and open the shipping/transport container lid and inspect inside the container 

and equipment thoroughly for any signs of mishandling or damage during shipping.  

Report any damage to the shipping carrier immediately and do not proceed with 

unpacking. Since the shipment is made FOB factory, you should consult your 

administration concerning claims for shipping damage. Please notify DEMTECH 

Services, Inc. immediately in writing of any shipping damage. 

 

c.

 

Make note of the orientation of the equipment and packing foam inserts inside the 

shipping container to facilitate any repackaging requirements in the future. 

 

d.

 

To avoid injury and/or damage to the system, be sure to use adequate care when lifting, 

removing or replacing the system into the shipping/transport container. 

 

e.

 

You may operate the system from within the shipping/transport container or remove it 

and place it in an appropriate location suitable for the testing you intend to perform. 

 

 

5.2

 

Electrical Plug Connection 

 

 

a.

 

Verify proper operation of the Pro-Tester

TM

 before proceeding with the remainder of the 

installation. The Pro-Tester

TM

  is equipped with a “soft-start” feature.  This feature 

utilizes a toggle power switch on the rear of the system.  Toggle the switch up to turn 

the system ON. Toggle the switch down to turn the system OFF.  This feature provides 

a built in safety to protect the system during connection to a field generator by 

automatically turning the power off to the system any time AC power is disconnected 

either by turning off the generator or unplugging the power cord.  Upon startup 

generators can produce significant power surges which can be harmful to the Pro-

Tester

TM

. This soft-start feature eliminates ill effects from this phenomenon.  Find the 

Power Cord included with your system and plug one end into the appropriate connecter 

at the rear of the system (refer to Figure 1). Plug the other end into an electrical outlet 

supplying the proper ~(AC) power. Toggle the Power Switch to the ON position (refer 

to Figure 5.1).
