Connecting the system
Make sure the following preparations of the physical site are met:
•
The system must be placed on a flat and stable surface able to support 36 kg (80 lbs.) to
avoid the risk of falling.
•
The work area for unpacking the system should be 76.2 cm (30 in.) high, 76.39 cm (28.5
in.) wide and 69.95 cm (27 in.) deep.
•
The system must be located at least 20 cm (8 in.) higher than the wastewater drain.
•
The drain facility must accept a drain pH level between 6.5 and 10.0.
•
The drain must accept a wastewater temperature of at least 75°C (167°F).
•
The water source connection must have a 3/4 in. hose thread.
•
The water source temperature must be ≥15°C (59°F).
A hot water connection is highly recommended to speed up heating, but is not required.
•
The water pressure must be between 0.5 bars and 10 bars (7.25 psi and 145 psi).
•
The water source hardness should be ≤300 ppm.
•
The grounded electrical outlet (220–240V~ 9A 50 Hz 1200W) must connect to either a
Euro or a UK power cord plug provided and must be located within 2 m (5 ft.) of the
system.
•
The operating environmental temperature must be between 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F).
•
The operating environmental humidity must be between 20% to 80%, non condensing.
•
Consult your area's requirements regarding the disposal of the HP Designjet 3D Removal
System effluent prior to use. A permit or form of pre-treatment may be required in your
area.
Connect the drain hose
Make sure the drain hose is attached by pushing the end of the drain hose onto the barbed
connection on the back panel of the system. Secure the hose with the hose clamp using a flat
bladed screwdriver. Route the free end of the drain hose to the wastewater location. Make sure
the system is at least 20 cm (8 in.) above the drain hose discharge and there are no kinks in the
hose. The system relies on gravity to drain the wastewater from the cleaning tank.
