cold or hot environment for a prolonged period of time. Allow
1. Plug the electrical line cord into the electrical outlet. If the unit is already on, switch
the unit off by depressing the
2. If the optional footswitch is used, insert the footswitch plug into the jack located on
the rear panel.
3. Complete the converter/booster/probe or flocell assembly as described on pages 10
-18.
4. Connect the converter cable to the power supply. Connect one end of the converter
cable to the connector on the rear panel of the power supply. Connect the other end
to the converter. The connectors on the cable are interchangeable.
5. Connect the air fitting on top of the converter to a source of dry, filtered compressed
air at 10 psi (3-4 CFM). Air cooing is required.
Sonication will cause both the probe and sample temperature to increase. The heat will transfer up
to the converter. If the converter overheats the internal crystals can crack and the converter will
require replacement. Converter damage due to overheating is not covered under warranty.
Continuous processing applications require both chilling the sample and air cooling of the converter.
Cooling Air Regulation and Adjustment:
Adjust the regulated compressed air until the gauge indicates 10 ± 1 PSIG (approximately 3 to 4
CFM). The compressed air will flow into the converter and out through the bottom.
Note: The compressed air should be oil free and filtered with a 5 micron filter.
