CT-500 Series motor-stirrer installation
Motor-stirrer installation To install the motor-stirrer, follow the procedure below.
NOTE If you have the CT-600 Series instrument, skip to the CT-600 Series
installation section and complete the installation directions in place of this
section.
7. Remove the screws that fasten the top cover to the motor housing
and remove the top cover.
8. Remove the motor-stirrer from its box.
CAUTION Use care when handling the motor shaft and impeller to prevent damaging
sensitive components. Do NOT hold the motor assembly by the shaft.
Doing so could bend the rotor shaft slightly out of alignment.
NOTE Two standoffs, one on each side of the opening for the motor-stirrer, serve
as locating pins for the motor support pad. The holes in the pad fit loosely
over these standoffs to prevent the motor from vibrating out of position.
9. Carefully slide the motor-stirrer into place on the motor support pad,
impeller shaft down, and align the motor line cord so it points toward
the rear of the bath (see
Figure 5). The motor-stirrer
should now lie flat on the top
of the bath.
10. Lower the motor-stirrer
power cord down through
the vertical channel in the
rear of the unit.
11. Attach the top cover,
making sure that all cords
pass through the rear
opening and down through
the
vertical shaft. Secure the front of the cover first. The two longer
screws w/toothed washers from the Accessories Kit are used to
secure the housing to the sides the vertical shaft.
CT-600 TE cooler and motor-stirrer installation
This section of the installation procedure is for the CT-600 bath only.
The CT-600 is shipped with the top housing sections installed, but with the

600 installation you will remove the housing sections, install the motor-
stirrer and TE cooling unit, and reassemble the housing. Follow the
procedure below to install these components.
