3. SITE REQUIREMENTS
DANGER/ DANGER
Absence of ground connection or use of unspecified power cord!
Absence de raccordement à la terre et utilisation d'un câble d'alimentation
non adapté!
The absence of ground connection or the use of an unspecified power cord
can lead to electric shock or short circuit.
L'absence de mise à la terre ou l'utilisation d'un câble d'alimentation non
recommandé peuvent entraîner des chocs électriques ou des courts-
circuits.
Never connect the device to a voltage source without ground
connection.
N'utilisez jamais votre instrument avec une prise de courant sans mise à la
terre.
Never use cables other than the ones supplied by SIM and Agilent
Technologies to ensure proper functionality and compliance with safety or
EMS regulations.
N'utilisez jamais de câble d'alimentation autre que le modèle SIM et Agilent
Technologies destiné à votre pays.
NOTE
In case of emergency it must be possible to disconnect the instrument from the power line
any time.
Make sure that there is easy access to the power cable of the instrument so that the
instrument can quickly and easily be disconnected from the line voltage.
Power considerations
Power supply:
The power supply has wide ranging capabilities so that there is no voltage selector at the
instrument. The fuse (T 3.15 A / 250 VAC) is accessible from the outside.
Power cord:
Different power cords are offered as options with the system. The female ends of all power
cords are identical. The female end plugs into the power-input socket at the rear of the
cooling module. The male end of each power cord is different and designed to match the wall
socket of a particular country or region.

Bench space
If using the cooling module together with the Agilent 1220 Infinity II LC System, the LC
system needs an additional 15 cm of space on the left side (view from the front).
Moreover, the module needs approximately 10 cm (3.9 in) at the rear and the left side for air
circulation.
Environment
NOTE
Condensation within the module can damage the system electronics in case of improper
use or storage!
Of the cooling module was shipped in cold weather, leave it in its box and allow it to warm
slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.
The cooling module will work within specifications at ambient temperatures and relative
humidity as described in chapter 9 (see Tab. 4)
4. MODE OF OPERATION
The cooling module for the sample tray of the Agilent 1220 Infinity II LC System is firmly
mounted on the LC. It is designed to temper the sample tray from 5 ⁰C to 40 ⁰C.
The module is controlled by the delivered SIM software (possible options: driver for
OpenLAB CDS ChemStation/EZChrom/2.x or a standalone version).
The original sample tray is modified by a metal plate beneath the sample tray. This plate is
cooled with a Peltier element. Heat is drawn outside the system using a heat exchanger with
circulating cooling water.
The metal plate beneath the sample tray (for 100 x 1.8 ml vials) transmits the temperature to
the sample vials. During cooling, condensation will appear in the system. The condensed
water is safely guided out of the module.
The cooling module contains its own power supply and is switched on separately.
Communication of the cooling module with the stand-alone software or the OpenLAB driver
takes place via the local network.
If the standalone version is used, the APG Remote interface will transmit the system status.
