    Danger of electrocution. Good electrical grounding is essential to avoid potentially serious shock hazards. A 3-wire outlet with ground connection must be provided for the Cary 3500 UV-Vis. Make certain that power outlets are earth-grounded at the grounding pin. For safety reasons, a separate power outlet receptacle should be provided for each unit in the system.
  • Page 16: Computer Requirements

    Locate the PC keyboard and mouse for ergonomically correct access. Gas requirements The Cary 3500 UV-Vis requires the supply of a compressed gas (nitrogen or air) when the Peltier temperature-controlled modules are used. It is required to prevent condensation of the sample compartment when temperatures below ambient are used.
