§ Check the voltage rating and plug design
$ The heating unit of the moisture analyzer has been factory-set to either 230 V or 115 V for
technical reasons. The voltage has been set to the rating specified on your order. The voltage
setting is shown on the manufacturer’s label (see the bottom of the analyzer), for example:
– 230 volts: MA150–…230..
– 115 volts: MA150–…115..
! If they do not match:
Do not operate your moisture analyzer; contact your local Sartorius office or dealer.
Use only
– Original power cords
– Power cords approved by a certified electrician
– If you need to connect an extension cord:
Use only a cable with a protective grounding conductor
§ Connecting the moisture analyzer, rated to Class 1, to power supply (mains supply):
The moisture analyzer must be plugged into a properly installed wall outlet which has
a protective grounding conductor (PE)
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
Sartorius could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Safety Precautions
If you use an electrical outlet that does not have a protective grounding conductor,
ensure that an equivalent protective conductor is installed by a certified electrician
(as specified in the applicable regulations for installation in your country).
The protective effect must not be negated by using an extension cord without a protective
grounding conductor.
Connecting Electronic Devices (Peripherals)
§ Make absolutely sure that the moisture analyzer is unplugged from the power supply before
connecting/disconnecting a peripheral device (printer or PC) to or from the interface port.
Warmup Time
To return precise results, the moisture analyzer must warm up for at least 30 minutes after
initial connection to AC power or after a relatively long power outage. Only after this time
will the moisture analyzer have reached the required operating temperature.
