Unpacking and Setting Up 2-5
Setting up t h e Instr u m ent
This section contains instructions for setting up the classifier. The classifier
can be operated with either the Model 3077/3077A Neutralizer or the
Model 3088 Advanced Aerosol Neutralizer. The Model 3082 is not shipped
with either a DMA or Neutralizer installed.
To set up the classifier in a particle-generation configuration (without a
CPC) follow the instructions in the order given:
1. If required to do so by local regulations, install the optional lead
shielding.
2. Install either the Model 3077/3077A or 3088 Neutralizer.
3. If needed for your application, remove the inlet adaptor and install an
impactor.
4. Install a DMA and connect the DMA sheath flow ports, polydisperse
flow inlet, and high voltage cable to the classifier.
5. Connect the classifier to a PC using the USB cable provided, or
connect the classifier to a PC or local area network (LAN) using an
Ethernet (cable not provided).
6. Connect the AC power cable to the back of the classifier.
Notes: When plugged in, the unit powers on automatically.
Detailed instructions for steps 1 through 6 above are given on
the following pages.
To set up the classifier in an SMPS spectrometer configuration, follow the
instructions in the order given:
1. If required to do so by local regulations, install the optional lead
shielding.
2. Install either the Model 3077/3077A or 3088 Neutralizer.
3. If needed for your application, remove the inlet adaptor and install an
impactor.
4. Install a DMA and connect the DMA sheath flow ports, polydisperse
flow inlet, and high voltage cable to the classifier.
5. If using the flow equalizer assembly, install it now.
6. Connect the CPC inlet to the monodisperse outlet on the DMA.
7. If desired, connect the classifier to a PC using the USB cable provided,
or connect the classifier to a PC or local area network (LAN) using an
Ethernet (cable not provided).
8. Connect the classifier to the CPC using the RS-232 cable provided.
9. Connect the AC power cable to the back of the CPC and power on.
10. Connect the AC power cable to the back of the Classifier.
