Laboratory Requirements
What You Need For proper VSpin operation, make sure your laboratory meets the
following requirements:
Electrical Supply
❑ 100–240 VAC
❑ 50–60 Hz
Environment
❑ For speeds above 1500 RPM, or when an immovable position is
required, use a dedicated permanent mounting surface, such as an
aluminum table at least 0.5 inch (1.3 cm) thick and at least
100 pounds (45.5 kg) in weight with the correct bolt hole pattern.
❑ For speeds below 1500 RPM and when a consistent location is not
required, use a 14 x 19 inch (36 x 49 cm) non-skid stable surface for
free-standing operation.
Air supply
❑ 0.25 inch (0.64 cm) compressed air line capable of supplying 80 psi
(550 kPa) at 1 cfm (0.5 L/s)
❑ Clean, dry air
