Installing the Pump

Site Requirements

Site Requirements

A suitable environment is important to ensure optimum performance of the quaternary pump.

Power Consideration

The quaternary pump power supply has wideranging capability (see Table 1 on page 16). It accepts any line voltage in the range described in the above mentioned table. Consequently there is no voltage selector in the rear of the quaternary pump. There are also no externally accessible fuses, because automatic electronic fuses are implemented in the power supply.

To disconnect the quaternary pump from line, unplug the power cord. The power supply still uses some power, even if the power switch on the front panel is turned off.

Shock hazard or damage of your instrumentation can result, if the devices are connected to a line voltage higher than specified.

Power Cords

Different power cords are offered as options with the quaternary pump. The female end of each of the power cords is identical. It plugs into the power-input socket at the rear of the quaternary pump. The male end of each of the power cords is different and designed to match the wall socket of a particular country or region.

Never operate your instrumentation from a power outlet that has no ground connection. Never use a power cord other than the power cord designed for your region.

Never use cables other than the ones supplied by Agilent Technologies to ensure proper functionality and compliance with safety or EMC regulations.
