44 Antaris II and Antaris MX Site and Safety Information
Uninterruptable power supplies (UPS) are available from Thermo Fisher
Scientific. A UPS reduces the odds of a system shutdown if power is lost
elsewhere in the building. Power line conditioners (which ensure that
your service is free from sags, surges or other line disturbances) also are
available in the U.S.A. from Thermo Fisher Scientific for 120-volt
operation. Line conditioners for 100- or 230-volt operation can be
purchased locally. Contact Thermo Fisher Scientific customer support
for information about power conditioners and uninterruptable power
supplies.
Generally, 50 % more power should be available than the entire system
(including accessories) typically uses. See the section entitled
"Specifications," for maximum power consumption and heat dissipation
specifications. The values are approximate.
If possible, install a telephone with an outside line near the instrument.
Should you require assistance from Thermo Fisher Scientific, being able
to use the phone while operating the instrument will save time.
Standard instruments are sealed and desiccated to prevent damage to
optical components from environmental humidity and corrosive
solvents. If your instrument environment is excessively humid (above
95 % non-condensing) or contaminated by routine use of potentially
corrosive solvents or other agents, we recommend that you purge the
instrument. Purging (forcing dried air or nitrogen through the
instrument to eliminate water vapor and other airborne contaminants)
will better protect the system's internal components.
Caution The interaction of chlorinated solvents, perfluorochlorinated solvents or
other solvents containing halogenated hydrocarbons (for example, Freon®)
with a near-IR source can corrode instrument components. Do not leave
exposed solvents around the instrument any longer than necessary.
Notice When using the fiber optic probes, cap all unused fiber optic input and
output ports to maintain system purge.
