Safety practices
The following safety practices are intended to ensure safe operation of the
equipment.
Electrical hazards
The removal of protective panels on the OR 100/110 can result in expo-
sure to potentially dangerous voltages. Therefore, disconnect the instru-
ment from all power sources before disassembly. Unqualified personnel
should not open the instrument.
Replace blown fuses with fuses of proper type and rating as stipulated on
the side panel and specified in the installation section of this manual. The
fuse holder is integrated in the mains connector. Ensure that the instru-
ment is never put in operation with fuses of a different type. This can
cause fire.
Connect the detector to a grounded AC power source, line voltage 100 –
240 VAC, frequency 50/60 Hz. The instrument should be connected to a

viii User manual OR 100 /110, ed. 5
protective earth via a ground socket. The power source should exhibit min-
imal power transients and fluctuations. Replace faulty or frayed power
cords.
The OR 100/110 is equipped with 8 AC power outlets at the back panel, di-
vided in two blocks of 4. The maximum power, which can be drawn from
these power outlets, is 1900 Watt at 240VAC, 960 Watt at 120V and 800
Watt at 100 VAC. The maximum rated power per outlet is 300 Watt.
Do not exceed the maximum rated power, this can cause fire or other po-
tentially dangerous situations. It is advised to use the outlets only to con-
nect ALEXYS system components, such as the LC 100 pump, AC 100
controller, AS 100 autosampler and DECADE II™electrochemical detec-
tor.
In case of the OR 100 (not applicable for OR 110) always have the silicone
tubing connected, which is in the ship kit, to the drain of the mobile phase
tray at the back side of the OR 100, to prevent leakage of solvents onto

ix
the electrical equipment below (LC 100 pump or AC 100 acquisition con-
troller).
Leakage of solvent on the connectors on the back of the electrical equip-
ment can lead to short circuit.
General precautions
Execute periodic leak checks on LC tubing and connections. Do not allow
flammable and/or toxic solvents to accumulate. Do not close or block

x User manual OR 100 /110, ed. 5
