1. SAFETY Symbols Used In This Manual Important information. This label indicates important information that must be read and understood prior to operation. Warning relating to the presence of magnetic field. Warning relating to a trip hazard. Warning relating to hot surfaces. Warning relating to the potential for electrical shock.
Installation, Operation, and Service Precautions During installation or servicing this magnet must be locked out following the Lockout/Tagout procedure defined in section 1.3. Hazardous voltages are present within this product during normal operation. This equipment should never be operated with any covers removed or interlocks defeated.

4. If more than one person is involved in the repair, each person shall install a lock and or tag to the equipment energy source. An employee may not use the tag or lock of another employee. 5. After servicing, renovation, or maintenance is complete, the area must be checked for tools, parts, removed guards, and assurance that no personnel are in the danger zone.
Page 8
II. Shutdown: Know what type of energy the machine uses. Identify its potential hazards. Find the switches or other devices that control energy and need to be locked out. Let employees know that you will be locking or tagging out the equipment and why. Turn off the machine or equipment.
Clean, cool (16°C - 20°C) water at 8.0 lpm at 4.0 bar (60 psid) should be used to cool the 5203 magnet. This can be provided by house water supply or from a recirculating chiller. An appropriate recirculating chiller is the TF90 from Thermofisher.
3. WARNINGS PERSONNEL SAFETY The Model 5203 has a low level of fringe field. In operation the magnet fringing field can be in excess of 0.5mT (5G). This can cause malfunctioning of heart pacemakers and other medical implants. We recommend that the fringing field should be mapped and warning signs be placed outside the 0.5mT (5G) contour.
Page 15
SYSTEM INTERLOCKS These should always be connected if the magnet is to be operated unattended to avoid the possibility of coil overheating caused by excessive power dissipation or inadequate cooling. WATCHES, CREDIT CARDS, and MAGNETIC DISCS Do not move magnetically sensitive items into the close vicinity of the magnet.
Model 5203 magnet is installed. It may be necessary to orient the Model 5203 axis to minimize the effects of external fields, to relocate ac power sources or to install suitable magnetic shielding.
Inspect the magnet and junction box to ensure that no damage has occurred during shipment. If damage is evident report the damage in detail to the shipper for claim and simultaneously notify GMW in case assessment of the damage must be made. If no damage is found proceed with magnet unpacking and installation.
In the event that the root cause cannot be determined please contact Tom King (tom@gmw.com) for technical support. The Model 5203 has one Selco UP62-080C thermostat. It is located between the base yoke plate and the lower cooling plate. The thermostat is normally closed, opening when the coil heatsink temperature exceeds 80°C, ±...
Magnet Cooling The Model 5203 can be operated up to an average coil temperature of 80°C. Assuming an ambient laboratory temperature of 20°C and a temperature coefficient of resistivity for copper of 0.0039/°C, the hot resistance of the coil should not exceed 25% more than the ambient temperature "cold"...
5. OPERATION The 5203 electromagnet is water cooled and should not be operated without water. Attempts to operate the magnet as an air cooled system will most likely result in irreversible damage to the magnet. This product is an electromagnet and creates significant magnetic fields both within the magnet and in the surrounding area.
The necessity to use calibration curves can be avoided by using a field controller to sense the magnetic field and provide a corresponding power supply control signal through the power supply programming inputs. Contact GMW for suitable instrumentation and software (Labview) (sales@gmw.com). 6. MAINTENANCE...
7. STANDARD OPTIONS Standard Pole Options The 5203 electromagnet is supplied with Pole A as standard. Standard Poles B, C and D can be ordered additionally to provide different performance characteristics. See Section 9 for performance characteristics of poles A, B, C and D.
8. CUSTOM OPTIONS Custom Pole Options The model 5203 electromagnet can have customized performance by means of switching out the standard pole with a customized pole. GMW Associates will work with customers to provide the magnetic design of custom poles and will also manufacture such poles. Please direct inquiries to...
