Installation Procedures
This section provides instructions on installation environment requirements as well as unpacking,
installing, and packing the EZ2.
4.1
Installation environment
The EZ2 is a plug-and-play instrument. Unpacking and installation procedures are easy to follow,
but a person who is familiar with laboratory equipment should oversee the installation.
4.1.1
Site requirements
The EZ2 must be located out of direct sunlight, away from heat sources and away from sources of
vibration and electrical interference. Refer to the Technical Specifications section (see page 164)
for the operating conditions (temperature and humidity). The site of installation should be free of
excessive drafts, excessive moisture and excessive dust, and should not be subject to large
temperature fluctuations.
Use a level workbench that is large enough and strong enough to accommodate the EZ2. Refer to
Technical Specifications section (see page 164) for the weight and dimensions of the EZ2. Ensure
that the workbench is dry, clean and vibration-proof, and has additional space for accessories.
The EZ2 must be placed within approximately 1.5 m of a properly grounded (earthed) AC power
outlet. The power line to the instrument should be voltage regulated and surge protected. Ensure
that the EZ2 is positioned so that it is easy to access the power connector at the back of the
instrument and the power switch on the front at all times, and that it is easy to turn the instrument
off and disconnect it.
Note
: It is recommended to plug the instrument directly into its own power outlet and to not share
the power outlet with another lab equipment.
WARNING
Explosive atmosphere
The EZ2 instrument is not designed for use in an explosive atmosphere.
