Location

The glove box should be placed on a stable, level base stand equipped with a lower shelf to

accommodate a vacuum pump near an electrical receptacle rated at 115V, 60 Hz, 20 amp for 115
volt models, or 230V, 50 Hz, 10 amp for 230 volt models. The base stand must be capable of
supporting 500 pounds minimum, and the height should provide a comfortable working position
through the glove ports. Recommended clearance between the back of the glove box and the wall
is 18 inches minimum to provide convenient access to connections on the rear of the unit. Frontal
clearance of approximately five feet should be ample to allow passage of personnel while a
technician is working at the front of the unit.
