1.2 Installation Requirements

The S3 system should be installed by a trained service engineer to ensure proper operation and
calibration of the instrument. If any items are missing or damaged, contact your local Bio-Rad
office for assistance.
Before the S3 cell sorter can be installed by a service engineer, a site must be chosen. The
instrument should be located on a sturdy bench or table top, away from any other instruments
that may interfere electrically or mechanically by causing vibration. The bench or table top must
be able to accommodate 198 lb (90 kg), the weight of the instrument. The area should be free of
excessive dust or moisture.
