Safety Lid

The safety lid holds the high voltage leads that connect to an external
power supply (not supplied). The lid is held in place by the safety
interlocks during electrophoresis (Fig 8).

The color-coded high voltage leads have safe 4 mm plugs that inter-
face directly with Hoefer power supplies. Adapters may be required
to connect the SE900 to other power supplies. Check the connection
before using the SE900.

Glass Cassettes

The glass plates are 28 cm wide × 21 cm in length. The cassettes have
1 mm thick glass spacers glued into place and are hinged for easy
assembly (Fig 9). Six glass cassettes are included with each SE900-1.0.
Additional cassettes can be ordered separately as SE9102-1-1.0.

It is important that the cassettes be positioned with the hinge side
down in the separation tank during electrophoresis.

Caution! Always install the safety lid
before use!
