PREPARATION FOR USE
1. Plug the electrical line cord into the electrical outlet. If the unit is already on, switch
the unit off by depressing the O key.
2. If the optional footswitch is used, insert the footswitch plug into the jack located
on the rear panel. Make sure that the plug is inserted all the way in.
3. Screw the booster into the converter and secure forcefully with the spanner
wrenches provided.
4. Ensure that the High Volume Flow Cell is completely drained out of any liquid.
5. Using the spanner wrenches provided, forcefully secure the booster to the High
Volume Flow Cell probe.
6. Connect the converter cable to the power supply.
7. Connect either one of the air fittings on top of the converter to a source of dry
compressed air.
CAUTION
Never place a washer between the converter,
booster or probe. Never apply grease to the
mating surfaces or threads of the converter,
booster or probe.
CAUTION
Do not operate an Ultrasonic Processor that has
been in a very cold or hot environment for a
prolonged period of time. Wait until it has
reached room temperature
NOTE
The High Volume Flow Cell is recommended only for the treatment of
low viscosity samples, which do not require extended exposure to
ultrasonics. Because the residence time within the cell is relatively
short, it might be necessary to recirculate the sample.
