1. Features
The Azure Aqua Power Supply 600V offers several features beyond a traditional electrophoresis power
supply. These include stable voltage output, short circuit protection, and load-oriented voltage output. The
Azure Aqua Power Supply 600V can operate at constant voltage, constant current or constant power. It is
suitable for powering gel electrophoresis and transfer tanks.
Azure Aqua Power Supply 600V features:
• Constant voltage output, constant current output, constant power output
• Time-set function, automatic switch between constant voltage and constant current
• Automatic no-load detection
• Automatic short circuit protection
• Run history recall
• 192x64 LCD screen
• Skid-resistant legs
2. Display
Azure Aqua Power Supply 600V displays the voltage, current, and power simultaneously for real-time
monitoring. Watch for any of the following error indicators:
• “NO LOAD” indicates no load detected, and the system will not run.
• “SHORT ”indicates a short circuit.
3. Safety Instructions
• Do not touch the outlet during operation.
• Always shut off the power before adjusting the cell.
• Do not touch any wires or other electrical components during operation to avoid harming oneself
or the unit.

Display
1. Setting up a run with constant voltage output:
A. From the main screen, press the Edit key to enter Program Edit Mode. Use the Up/Down arrow
keys to select which constant you want to set.
B. While the voltage (V) value is displayed on screen, press the right arrow key to move the cursor
tothespecicvoltagevalueinthemiddleofthescreen.Thenpressthetogglekeys to adjust
the constant voltage value.
C. Continue to press the key to move the cursor until you see the time 00:00. Press the keys to
set the time.
D. After the constant voltage and time are set, and press the OK (Run) key in the middle to start
the power supply.
2. Setting up a run with constant current or power output
• Repeat steps A-D, selecting Amps or Watts as the constant value in Step A.
3. When the run is over, a timer will go off. Hit the Mute button to silence the alarm.
4. Review Run History
• To review the run history, press the History key on the screen to enter the History page, and
press the keys to scroll through the previously run protocols. Press OK button to run a
specicexperimentintheHistorytab.
