Supplying Power Always remember to switch the power off when installing electrical
equipment.
IMPORTANT
Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage stated
on the type plate on the back of the machine.
Single-phase Supply The 2-pin (European Schuko) plug is for use on single-phase
connections.
2-phase Supply The 3-pin (North American NEMA) plug is for use on 2-phase power
connections.
Connection to the Machine Both cables are on the other end equipped with an IEC 320 cable
connector that has to be connected to the LaboPol.
WARNING!
The output voltage from this cable is 200 – 240V and not 110V.
DO NOT use this cable to connect equipment that use an 110V power
supply. Failure to adhere to this may result in material damage.
DANGER!
The machine must be earthed
IMPORTANT
If LaboPol has not been connected to a specimen mover, the switch
“specimen mover” must be put into off position.
Otherwise LaboPol cannot be started.

Supplying Water Connect the outlet hose to the water outlet on the back of the
Water Outlet machine and secure the hose using the hose clamp.
Lead the other end of the outlet hose to the drain. Be absolutely
sure to place the outlet hose with a steady slope to prevent the
water from being discharged too slowly, which may cause
overflow or blocking of the water outlet. Avoid sharp bends on
the outlet hose.
Water Inlet Connect the inlet hose to the water tap and secure with a hose
clamp. The fittings (gasket, union nut and reduction ring)
supplied with the machine may also be used for the connection.
