Section 2
Getting Started
2.1 Unpacking
Remove the universal 12V power supply (with UK, US and EU leads) and the pack of
100 disposable cuvettes from the packaging.
Remove the fluorimeter from the carton by lifting it in the centre between the two
support cheeks; do not lift it by the support cheeks.
Place all items on a clean workbench then remove the support cheeks and the
polythene bag from the fluorimeter.
Any shortages or damage must be reported to your local distributor or the
manufacturer as soon as possible.
Keep all packing materials in case the unit has to be re-shipped at a later date.
It is important that when re-packing the instrument it is first sealed in a strong, clean
polythene bag to protect it from the dust and particles that are present in all packing
materials.
2.2 Installation
2.21 Location
In ideal circumstances the installation environment will be clean, dry and dust free
with the instrument protected from extreme variations in ambient lighting and
temperature change. For field use it is recommended that the instrument is used in
the optional storage case for additional protection.
Where conditions are less than ideal, maintenance and cleaning must be carried out
regularly and additional protection offered where possible. The optional dust cover
should always be fitted when the unit is not being used or is stored for short periods.
2.22 Supply
Voltage
The fluorimeter is powered by a low voltage dc power supply that operates from a 90-
264Vac mains supply. The universal power supply is supplied with 3 mains leads for
UK, EU and US sockets. The correct lead for your supply should be selected.
2.23 Mains
Connections
The leads supplied have a moulded on plug. However, if this is removed for any
reason the wires in the mains lead are colour coded to conform to the internationally
recognised standard such that:
UK CONNECTIONS US
CONNECTIONS
BROWN LIVE BLACK LIVE
BLUE NEUTRAL WHITE NEUTRAL
GREEN/YELLOW EARTH GREEN EARTH
Safety
When disposing of any removed plug the connectors must be removed or
made incapable of insertion into a mains socket.
