Methods
Procedural guidelines
We recommend that you carefully review these guidelines before operating the instrument.
• To ensure safe, reliable operation, always operate the PowerEase
™
Touch 600W Power Supply in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Avoid exposing the power supply to liquids as these may damage the unit and void the warranty.
•
IMPORTANT!
Do not use the PowerEase
™
Touch 600W Power Supply at its maximum electrical
load limits. Variations in buffer conditions can result in exceeding the power supply’s maximum
voltage, current, or power output capacity and produce undesirable variations in performance.
• When using this or any electrophoresis product, we recommend that you adhere to the protocols
given in the electrophoresis product manuals.
For best results:
• We recommend using the
Constant Voltage Mode
for protein or nucleic acid gels or blots.
Note:
For most electrophoresis methods, resistance increases throughout the run. Limiting the
voltage allows for an improving margin of safety over time because the current and power decrease
through the run. Also, the same voltage can be used regardless of the number or the thickness of
gels being electrophoresed.
• Avoid running samples of widely differing salt concentrations or sample buffers at the same time or
on the same gel.
Note:
Variations in conductivity due to differences in buffer salt concentrations can affect the run
of all the samples run at the same time.
• Properly prepare your samples.
Install the power supply
1.
Check the label located on the bottom of the power supply to ensure that the unit is compatible
with locally provided voltage.
2.
Place the power supply on a level laboratory bench and position it such that the On/Off switch and
the AC inlet at the rear of the power supply are easily accessible. Keep the area around the power
supply clear to ensure proper ventilation of the unit.
3.
Ensure the On/Off switch located at the rear of the power supply is in the Off position.
4.
Attach the power cord to the AC inlet of the power supply.
