INSTALLATION
3.0 GENERAL
This chapter provides general installation instructions for the Model 642 Electromagnet Power Supply. CAUTION: To
ensure the best possible performance and maintain operator safety, read this entire chapter before installing the

If you do not understand any section of this manual, consult Lake Shore for clarification. Lake Shore Cryotronics

features or misuse of this power supply.
3.1 INSPECTION AND UNPACKING
Inspect shipping containers for external damage before opening them. Photograph any container that has significant
damage before opening it. If there is visible damage to the contents of the container, contact the shipping company and
Lake Shore immediately, preferably within 5 days of receipt of goods. Keep all damaged shipping materials and contents
until instructed to either return or discard them.
Open the shipping container and keep the container and shipping materials until all contents have been accounted for.
Check off each item on the packing list as it is unpacked. Instruments themselves may be shipped as several parts. The
items included with the Model 642 are listed below. Contact Lake Shore immediately if there is a shortage of parts or
accessories. Lake Shore is not responsible for any missing items if not notified within 60 days of shipment.
Inspect all items for both visible and hidden damage that occurred during shipment. If damage is found, contact Lake
Shore immediately for instructions on how to file a proper insurance claim. Lake Shore products are insured against
damage during shipment but a timely claim must be filed before Lake Shore will take further action. Procedures vary
slightly with shipping companies. Keep all shipping materials and damaged contents until instructed to either return or
discard them.
If the instrument must be returned for recalibration, replacement or repair, a returned goods authorization (RA) number
must be obtained from a factory representative prior to return. The Lake Shore RA procedure is given in Paragraph 7.2.
