on water removal system.
Caution
Butanol is flammable. Butanol is also potentially toxic if inhaled. Use butanol
only in a well-ventilated area. If you smell butanol and develop a headache,
or feel faint or nauseous, leave the area at once. Ventilate the area before
returning.
Apply Power to the CPC
Plug the power cord into the receptacle on the back panel of the
CPC and then plug it into the AC power source. The instrument
uses a universal power supply that accepts a variety of input
voltages identified below.
Power 100 – 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 335 W maximum
Note: Make certain the power cord is plugged into a grounded power
outlet. Position the CPC so the power connector is easily
accessible.
Apply power to the CPC by turning on the switch next to the power
cord on the back panel.
The instrument begins a warm-up sequence. After warm-up, the
fluid begins to fill the internal butanol reservoir in the saturator.
Positioning the CPC
Place the CPC on a level surface. Ensure the cooling fan on the
back panel of the CPC is exposed to ambient air.
Note: If the CPC has n-butyl alcohol (butanol) in the reservoir, be very
careful when moving the CPC. See “
Moving and Shipping the
CPC” section for details.
