Note:
The kind of the used examination
materials and all special conditions for
their processing, pre-treatment and, if
necessary, storage as well as instrument
controls for correct and safe operation is in the
responsibility of the operator.
The operator is also responsible for special
equipment and materials and/or reagents for
the operation of the instrument.
Warning:
Before turning on the instrument for
the first time, please check if the power
requirements indicated on the type
plate (fig. 6) correspond to the power supply
voltage being used.
• No other instruments should be connected to
the circuit used for the cryostat, as the
compressor needs high surge currents
when
started.
• Do not use multi-socket power outlets with
small wire sizes for the supply of the
instrument.
• We recommend to immediately install all
accessories belonging into the cryo chamber,
e.g. blade carrier.
• The instruction manual of the instrument can
be found in the separate carton which is
placed on the foot part of the cryostat.
• Connect the power line of the instrument to
the power outlet.
• Turn on the power switch (fig. 5.1) on the
rear side of the instrument.
• Close the heated sliding window and cool
down the instrument.
The cooling phase will take several hours
depending on the set chamber temperature.
