Power plugs and cord
The MSD is supplied with a power cord and plug appropriate for the country
from which the order originates. For example, if an order originates from a
Agilent Technologies sales office in Germany, the power cord and plug
supplied will be compatible with the standard voltage and outlet configuration
in Germany. See “Power Cords" on page 41 for illustrations of the power cords
availabl e.
Data system components also include power cords with plugs appropriate for
the country where the order was placed.
Power cord lengths for the MSD and the data system components and
accessories are approximately 2.3 m (7.5 ft).

* The MSD operates on either voltage range. The foreline a nd turbo pumps are supplied for the voltage range suitable to the
country where the order originates
† Americas 120 V requires 20 A dedicated line. Americas 240 V requires 15 A dedicated line.
‡ Option 003, fast oven, is a unit with operating range 198 to 231 V. Most laboratories have 4-wire service resulting in 208 V at
the wall receptacle. It is important to measure the line voltage at the receptacle for the GC.
** Requires an isolated ground and dedicated outlet.

CAUTION If an instrument is being or dered from one location but is to be installed in another

location with different electrical power characteristics, this must be noted on the order.

A special note must also be made if the electrical power at the site is different from the

standard electrical power in that country.

WARNING Make sure the power cords supplied with the MSD are appropriate for your country

and site before installing the instrument. See “Power Cords” on page 41.
