3.5 Moving the Equipment
Care shall be taken when moving the processor. Only lift from the bottom base plate, do not lift from any
mounted or attached components. Make certain a lifting device is rated for the maximum weight of the
equipment (including accessories).
3.6 Utility Requirements
3.6.1 Electrical Supply
Electrical requirements vary by location. Consult the model specification section for compatible electrical
supply. The Microfluidizer™ Processor must be properly electrically connected according to national and
local electrical codes. The end user must supply secondary branch protection for the Microfluidizer
TM
Processor as required by local codes.
3.7 Environmental Requirements
3.7.1 Temperature
Avoid placing the Microfluidizer
TM
Processor in an area where ambient temperature is above -80ºF (26ºC)
or below 50ºF (10ºC).
3.7.2 Ventilation Requirements
The Microfluidizer
TM
equipment vents air to the surrounding environment. The customer must provide
adequate ventilation, and ensure that the venting is not restricted. The vented air will be warm and as
such surfaces nearby must be compatible with this temperature.
3.8 Preparing for First Use
This section should be followed for preparation of the Microfluidizer
TM
Processor during new machine
start up. This section can also be followed after long term storage.
3.8.1 Hydraulic System
1. Fill hydraulic reservoir with oil. Fill to the top mark on the dip stick. Filter with a 10 micron filter
during filling. It will take approximately 1 gal (3.6 L) to fill.
2. Charge hydraulic accumulator with nitrogen. See section 4.5 for instructions.
3.8.2 Utility Hookups
1. Connect the electrical utility to the processor.
2. Ensure local electrical utility supply meets processor requirements.
3. Verify motor is wired for high or low voltage using motor nameplate.
4. Verify motor starter overload is rated for motor nameplate.
