5 Putting into operation
This chapter describes the installation of the Multivapor and gives instructions on initial start-up.
NOTE
Inspect the instrument for damages during unpacking. If necessary, prepare a status report imme-
diately to inform the postal company, railway company or transport company. Keep the original
packaging for future transport.
5 .1 Installation site
Place the instrument on a stable, horizontal surface and consider the maximum product dimensions.
NOTE
The shaking platform moves horizontally in an orbital manner with up to 485 rpm (for the P-12) which
may lead to considerable shaking of the surface. For this reason ensure that the surface is stable.
It is not necessary to place the instrument in a fume hood, however, the exhaust gas from the vacuum
pump should be directed toward a fume hood.
5 .2 Electrical connections
NOTICE
Risk of instrument damage by wrong mains supply.
• External mains supply must meet the voltage given on the type plate
• Check for sufficient grounding
