Preparing for Installation

The Site Preparation Instructions (Appendix A) contain important information about preparing a location for
the instrument and the facilities required for your new instrument. Please read Appendix A before
proceeding with the installation of the AQUATRAN Model 3/40.
The ambient environmental conditions in which the instrument will be used must meet those specified on
page 10-1 in Chapter 10.
The AQUATRAN Model 3/40 should be placed on a bench or table capable of supporting approximately
102 kg (225 lbs). The work surface should be flat, clean and free of excessive vibration.
If installing a printer that will be directly connected to the AQUATRAN Model 3/40, place it next to the
instrument. Read the manual that came with the printer for installation procedures.
Do not plug the instrument or printer into a power source until all components have been set up and
connected.
Before proceeding with the setup or operation of the instrument familiarize yourself with the locations and
names of the parts and controls on the front and rear of the instrument.
