6. INSTALLATION AND INITIAL START-UP
6.1. RECEIVING THE GENERATOR
All units have been carefully inspected before transport. Visual checks for damage and functional tests
should be performed upon receipt. Any damage must be immediately noted and reported. The generator
must only be returned according to the shipping instructions provided.
Keep all of the ORIGINAL packaging for instrument return.
6.2. INSTALLING THE GENERATOR
The hydrogen generator must be placed on a at, level, vibration-free, shock-free surface. Do not place the
generator over a source of heat, as this may cause the device to overheat. The unit should not be in contact
with any other objects on any side, and the air inlet must not be blocked. Leave at least 30 cm (11.8 in) of
free space at the rear for ventilation. Do not operate the generator in a sealed or unventilated room, or in
close proximity to open ame or other sources of ignition. Do not operate the generator at below freezing
temperatures. Operation is guaranteed at operating temperatures between +15 and +40°C (59 to 10ºF).
• Normal precautions for any
hydrogen supply should be taken
when using the generator.
• DO NOT use in sealed or
unventilated rooms.
• DO NOT use in close proximity of
open ames or other sources of
ignition.
Place the GC-MS unit as showed here, in the
middle of the upper surface of the Plus FID
Station.
