Space Requirements

A minimum space of 150 cm (W) × 80 cm (D) × 90 cm (H) is required to install the
NovoCyte Quanteon instrument and NovoCyte Fluidics Station II. Make sure there
is at least 20 cm distance between the NovoCyte Quanteon instrument and the
adjacent object (i.e. walls). Leave at least 10 cm distance between the NovoCyte
Quanteon instrument and the NovoCyte Fluidics Station II.

Environmental Requirements

NovoCyte Quanteon instrument is designed to be used indoor. Please install and
operate the instrument with temperature of 15-32℃, and maximum relative
humidity of 80%. Store the instrument with temperature of 1-40℃, and maximum
relative humidity of 80%. Failure to follow the environmental requirements may
reduce the operating lifetime or cause damage to the instruments.

Instruction for Lifting and Carrying

Do not attempt to lift or move the instrument without the assistance of others.
•
Improper lifting can cause painful and permanent back injury. Depending on
the weight of the instrument, moving or lifting the instrument may require two
or more persons.
Make sure to unplug the power adapter and disconnect the quick couplers of
•
the instrument reagent containers from the back of the instrument. If the
instrument is equipped with a NovoSampler Q, it needs to be uninstalled from
the instrument. Do not move the instrument with the NovoSampler Q installed.
Lift with two hands from the bottom of the instrument with at least one person
•
at each side. Carefully move the instrument to the desired location and gently
place it on a flat laboratory bench. Keep the instrument horizontal during the
moving.
If needed, proper lifting technique and appropriate moving equipment could be
•
used to facilitate moving the instrument.
