Installation

1. Place the unit on a suitable flat bench, ensuring that the air inlet vents on the front and rear are

free from obstruction. Two units may be stacked one on top of the other (Prime Elite on a Satellite

or Satellite on Satellite).

2. Plug the mains cable into the socket on the back of the instrument.

3. Connect to the mains electricity supply with the plug provided or one wired correctly for the

supply. Switch the power ON using the switch located on the front of the unit. The front display will

then light up.

4. Open the drawer by pushing on the front drawer panel then pull the drawer forwards to access the

block.

5. Place the samples in the block. If individual tubes or strip tubes are being used, space these out

evenly across the block to equalise the pressure from the heated lid.

6. To close the drawer, push back into the unit until it locks in place.

Connecting Satellite units to the Prime Elite
