Caution
Ensure that you have ordered the appropriate HiVol

(standard) and a 110V version (special) .
Generator information
When powering the HiVol with a generator ensure that the generator is
earthed by a qualified electrician otherwise serious damage will occur to
the sampler, which is not covered under the warranty.
The following reference may be useful (in Australia):
AS/NZS 3010:2005 Electrical installations – Generating
sets.
This Standard sets out the minimum safety requirements related to the
use of generating sets for the supply of electricity at voltages normally
exceeding 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c.
Note: Check that the supply voltage is 200-240Vac
or 110Vac as appropriate. If this is not the case then
an alternative power setup will be required. See a
qualified electrical contractor.
A qualified electrical contractor must fit the wirable socket to an
appropriate supply cord, according to local wiring standards. The
power cord shall be fitted with an earth conductor.
The power supply to the HiVol must provide an earth path via the
plug.
It is recommended that a class II earth-leakage circuit breaker
(ELCB) – also known as GFI or RCD - be installed on the power
circuit to the sampler. The ELCB shall be appropriately rated for all
of the equipment installed on the circuit. Earth and neutral cables
should be linked as shown in the following diagram (Figure 10).
