Electrical Requirements
Applied Biosystems/MDS SCIEX recommends using two separate, 220 VAC
(207-242 VAC), 15 amp circuits at 50/60 Hz to supply power to the following items:
•
API main console
•
Rouging (backing) pump
The Line Adjustment Transformer (LAT) option, P/N WC014179 is the recommended
means of supplying the required voltage if the 207-242 VAC at 50/60 Hz specification
cannot be met. If the line voltage fluctuates by more than 5% during a 24 hour period and
falls out of specified values, a power conditioner may be needed. Refer to Appendix A.
In North America, use 6-15R receptacles and 6-15P plugs. Outside of North America, use
local standardized power receptacles and plugs. A minimum of three electrical outlets are
required for the computer equipment. Consult the respective manufacturer’s
documentation for specifications.
Various outlets are required for LC pumps, autosamplers, Analog-to-Digital Converter
boxes and ultraviolet (UV) detectors. The respective manufacturers’ specifications contain
this information.
