Site Requirements
Bench Space
The standard instrument will require the following bench space:
• Width 140 cm (55 in)
• Depth 56 cm (22 in)
• Height 60 cm (23 in)
If a G7821A PL-GPC 220 Viscometer or G7822A PL-GPC 220 Dual angle LSD is
supplied with the instrument, allow an additional 30 cm (12 in) for each of
these detector control systems on the width of the bench space.
The instrument is heavy, weighing 180 kg (370 lbs), and thus, it is advisable to
locate the system on a sturdy bench, preferably fitted with wheels facilitating
access to the rear of the unit should service be required.
Environment
Avoid positioning in direct sunlight.
Extraction Requirements
The instrument is equipped with two fan-forced exhausts (4 in diameter) at
the rear of each module, which must be routed to a fume extraction system or
vented into a hood via the supplied hoses. Both vent hoses for the instrument
are 4 inches in diameter. The air flow of the extraction system should be
<1.0 SLM.
Situate the instrument in a well-ventilated area.
The oven and solvent module lids open upwards to a full height of 97 cm (38 in). Please be
aware of overhead obstructions.
Condensation within the module
Condensation will damage the system electronics.
➔ Do not store, ship or use your module under conditions where temperature
fluctuations could cause condensation within the module.
➔ If your module was shipped in cold weather, leave it in its box and allow it to warm
slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.
