Setting up the
carousel
The carousel can be place at the right, left, or front of a ML 4000 base
instrument. It is integrated with the ML 4000 via a ML SWAP integration kit.
Carousel housing
assembly
To install the carousel housing assembly to the base plate:
1. Place the carousel housing assembly on the base plate, opposite
the ML SWAP. Position the housing assembly so that the front
end is near the edge of the base plate. See figure 4.
Figure 4: Carousel housing on base plate
2. Determine how close the housing assembly must be to the ML SWAP.
There are three positions possible represented by three threaded holes
in each side of the housing assembly (see figure 5).
Position 1 is closest to the ML SWAP, and Position 3 is the farthest away.
If you plan to use the shelves on the carousel, you must use Position 3. If
no shelves will be used, you can use any position, but you may wish to
use Position 1 to minimize bench space and maximize throughput.
If the base plate has not been installed, refer to the “Attaching the base plate to the ML 4000” of the
ML SWAP/4000 Series Integrated System User Guide (7157-01).
