NOTE
The direction of motor rotation (clockwise or counterclockwise) is as viewed
from the shaft end of the motor. The exhaust fan rotation is counterclockwise
(CCW) and the motor must be wired accordingly.
After the exhaust requirements have been met, check the checklist box: Exhaust system
is suitable.
Electrical Power Supplies
The installation of electrical power supplies must comply with the
rules and/or regulations imposed by the local authorities responsible
for the use of electrical energy in the workplace.
All power supplies for the Agilent ICP-OES, its accessories and water
chiller should be single phase, AC, 3 wire systems (active, neutral,
ground; or two active and ground). Each connection should be
terminated at an appropriate receptacle within reach of each
assembly’s power cable. Use of power boards or extension cables is
not recommended.
The outlet for the Agilent ICP-OES must have a dedicated ground.
It is recommended that separate mains circuits, (individually
protected by fuses or circuit breakers) are used for each component
in the system such as the water chiller, autosampler and printer.
Avoid using power supplies from a source that may be subject to
electrical interference from other services (such as large electric
motors, elevators, welders and air conditioning units).
