Electrical Considerations
Power Cords
The Odyssey® Sa Imager is equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug. This plug will only fit into
a grounding-type outlet. This is a necessary safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into
the outlet, you will need to replace the outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug.
Do not locate the Odyssey Sa Imager where the power cord will be walked on or exposed to water or
chemical spills.
The Odyssey Sa Imager draws a maximum of 2.25 amperes at 120V. If an extension cord is used,
make sure the total of the ampere ratings on the instruments plugged into the extension cord does
not exceed the extension cord ampere rating. Also make sure the total amperage of instruments
plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the amperage capacity for the outlet. In the U.S., this is
usually 15 or 20 amperes.
Fuse Replacement
There are no user serviceable fuses inside the Odyssey Sa Imager. If the instrument fails to power
up, and you suspect that a fuse has blown, contact LI-COR Technical Support.
Routine Maintenance
The Odyssey Sa Imager requires only minimal maintenance. However, as with any equipment
utilizing electrical voltages, there is a danger of fire or electrical shock if the equipment is not
properly maintained.
LI-COR Biosciences recommends that you routinely inspect the system and follow these general
maintenance guidelines:
l
Wipe all chemical spills from the exterior of the case.
l
Clean the exterior case parts with warm water and a damp cloth. The exterior case parts are res-
istant to chemical spills, but do not use scouring compounds, solvents such as acetone, benzene,
