Thermo Scientific
The recommended layout for the analyzer and workstation is shown in the figure below.
Place the analyzer and workstation on a workbench that has minimum dimensions of
180 × 70 cm (70.9 × 27.6 in). The workbench must be capable of supporting the weight of the
operating analyzer [119 kg (262.3 lb)] plus the weight of the workstation. The operating analyzer
contains consumables such as water, cuvettes, racks, reagents and samples. It is recommended to
have extra space for handling racks. Allow about 20 cm (8 in) of clear space behind the system
for proper air circulation and for maintenance and electrical connections. In addition, allow at
least 70 cm (27.6 in) of vertical clearance between the top of the analyzer and any shelves above it.
Place the workstation on the right side of the analyzer.
Each power plug must have own wall outlet. It is not recommended to use extension cables.
Note
It is recommended to have UPS for power loss protection in analyzer and workstation.
Connect UPS only to the workstation, monitor and analyzer. Do not connect UPS to the
printer.
The space requirements of the analyzer, workstation and table are shown in the following tables.
The space requirements are approximate values and the actual values depends on the used
accessories.
