Support Requirements

In the preparation of installing the Gas Purifier at the glove box site, please
consider the following:

A bench or stand that rests on the floor or fixed to the wall, but not both,
may be appropriate. 35" to 40" (889mm to 1,016mm) is typical for
standing height (Labconco stands offered in Chapter 7 vary from 33" to
40" or 838mm to 1,016mm). The stands Labconco offers include a
convenient place on the right side shelf to support the AtmosPure Re-
Gen Gas Purifier. See Figure 1-1 in Chapter 1.

Exhaust Requirements for the Regeneration Vent

Valve

The vent valve exhausts 4% hydrogen/inert gas during the regeneration
process and must be vented safely to the outside or exhausted to a fume hood.
The regeneration vent valve is exhausted through the gas flow regulator. An
open compression fitting is attached to the gas flow regulator and can be used
to connect the exhaust hose from the Regeneration Plumbing Kit. Refer to
Chapter 7 to purchase the Regeneration Plumbing Kit and Chapter 3 for start
up.

Electrical Requirements

Electrical receptacles should be located nearby for connecting the Gas Purifier
and the controlled atmosphere glove box. The Gas Purifier is rated 100-115V,
10A or 230V, 5A. One exterior outlet for a vacuum pump connection is located
on the rear of the Gas Purifier and is rated for 100-115V, 8A or 230V, 4.5A. A
single shared vacuum pump can be used for glove boxes configured with auto
pressure control, please see Chapter 7: Accessories to order the AtmosPure
C.A. COM Cable (6-pin). Accessory oxygen or moisture monitors can be
programmed to provide automatic control of the Gas Purifier’s blower. Please
see Chapter 7: Accessories to order the AtmosPure Oxygen/Moisture Monitor
Cable (9-pin), Oxygen or Moisture Monitor, and Sealed Electrical 9-pin Pass-
Through. Chapter 3 details all the connections for proper start-up. Figure 3-8
shows a typical connection diagram for electrical connections.
