To connect the LTQ Series MS detector to line power
1. Turn the Main Power circuit breaker to the Off (O) position.
2. Make sure that the Electronics switch is in the Service Mode position.
3. Connect the female plug of the power cord to the POWER IN receptacle of the power
panel.
4. Connect the male plug of the power cord to the 230 V ac power source in your
laboratory.
CAUTION If your local area is subject to power fluctuations or power interruptions, you
must install a power conditioning device or an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in
your laboratory. For more information, refer to the LTQ Series Preinstallation Requirements
Guide. The UPS must be certified by both North American (UL, CSA) and European
Agencies (TUV, UDE, SEMKO, DEMKO, and so on).
