Safety Information . 13
Unpacking and Installation
• This equipment is designed to be installed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical
Code (CEC) Part 1, CSA C22.1 and CSA C22.2 No. 0.
• Inspect the instrument for any signs of damage caused in transit. If any damage is
discovered, access the Troubleshooting Guide on the PerkinElmer website
http://www.perkinelmer.com/LambdaBioXLSSupport and follow the process there. If
you do not have access to the website, contact Customer Care (see
Appendix 2:
Customer Care Contacts
on page 87).
• Ensure your proposed installation site conforms to the environmental conditions for safe
operation:
Indoor use only.
Temperature range 5 °C to 35 °C.
Maximum relative humidity of 80% up to 31 °C, decreasing linearly to 50% at 40 °C.
NOTE: If you use the instrument in a room subjected to extremes of temperature change
during the day, it may be necessary to recalibrate (by switching off and then on
again) once thermal equilibrium has been established (2–3 hours).
• If the instrument has just been unpacked or has been stored in a cold environment, it
should be allowed to come to thermal equilibrium for 2–3 hours in the laboratory before
turning the instrument on. This will prevent calibration failure as a result of internal
condensation.
• The instrument must be placed on a stable, level bench or table that can take its weight
(approximately 4.5 kg) with enough space around the instrument so that air can
circulate freely.
• This equipment must be connected to the supply outlet with the power cord and power
supply provided. It can be used on 100–240 V, 50–60 Hz supplies. The power cord or
power supply outlet should be is fused at 3 A, 250 V.
• The instrument should be positioned so that the power cable can be readily
disconnected from the unit in the event of a hazard or malfunction occurring.
• Site the instrument in an atmosphere free from dust and corrosive fumes.
• Please read through the instrument User’s Guide supplied on the Lambda Bio/XLS
Documentation CD (L6050018) prior to use.
• Switch on the instrument via the ON/OFF button on the keypad after it has been
plugged in. The instrument will perform a series of self-diagnostic checks.
