Thermo Scientific TSQ Quantum XLS and TSQ Quantum GC Preinstallation Requirements Guide 13
Line Power
The quality of line power delivered to your system can affect its performance and longevity.
In order to ensure that your instrument performs optimally and is not damaged by line power
fluctuations, verify that your laboratory electrical supply complies with all power quality
requirements. Ta bl e 5 summarizes the line power requirements and indicates where you can
find more details.
As the user you are responsible for providing a source of power of acceptable quality to operate
your system.

Quality of Power
Ensure that line power is free from the following:
• Long-term changes in average root mean square (RMS) voltage level, with
durations greater than 2 s.
• Sudden changes in average RMS voltage level, with durations between
50 μs and 2 s.
• Brief voltage excursions of up to several thousand volts with durations up
to 50 μs.

Power Monitoring Devices
Before connecting your TSQ Quantum XLS or TSQ Quantum GC mass
spectrometer to its line power, Thermo Fisher Scientific recommends that you
monitor the line power 24 hours a day for seven consecutive days.
