Electroporation System
Quick Start Guide
Unpacking the System
The shipping carton in which your ECM 630 Electroporaon System is
packed has been specically designed to provide maximum protecon
to the instrument during transportaon and normal handling
condions. Upon receipt, the carton should be examined for any
external damage resulng from shipment.
Open the carton and carefully remove the ECM 630 System and
inspect the unit for any apparent damage. Save the carton and packing
materials for future transportaon and shipping requirements.
Packing Data
Check the packing slip to ensure that all items ordered and listed are
included in the shipment. Inform BTX immediately if any parts are
missing or damaged.
Power Source
As received, the instrument is ready for use with either 100–240 V AC,
50/60 HZ.
The power requirements are 350 was. In the USA, the power cord has
a standard three prong plug.
Installaon
Once you have determined that the components of the system have
not sustained any obvious damage in shipment, proceed with the
installaon.
Remove the insulang tab from the baery at the base of the unit.
Place the generator in a locaon that is a dry, level, sturdy surface free
from extremes in ambient temperature, dust or chemical exposures.
Allow the device to equilibrate to room temperature.
Unpack the safety dome, cuvee rack and disposable cuvee
chambers. Connect the safety dome, or in the case of the ECM 630
Electroporator system, specialty electrodes or HT plate handler, into
the connectors at the boom right-hand side of front panel.
Connect the mains/power cord to into the back panel at the boom le.
