Getting Started

Select a location that allows for 3” clearance behind the power supply, and comfortable reach of the

front panel controls and cell connections. Do not block the vented area of the case - on the front

bottom of the unit, or the fan area at the rear. Connect the power supply

using a cord appropriate for

the mains supply. Connect the electrophoresis apparatus to the power supply, making sure to match

the red positive lead to the red positive jack, and the black negative lead to the black negative jack.

Similarly, connect a second or more electrophoresis apparatus to the power supply if you plan to run

more than one in parallel. Attach a temperature probe to the EPS-3000P-II(V) rear located connector

and the electrophoresis apparatus if you intend to perform temperature-controlled runs. Note that only

one electrophoresis apparatus can be controlled when using temperature control. Power the unit on

using the AC power switch located at the rear of the unit, next to the AC line cord entry.
