BioOptix™ 10
Section 2 Installation
2-2
To keep tubing length at a minimum, buffer, sample, and waste
collection containers should be placed to the left of the unit. The
containers may also be kept behind the unit as long as the con-
tainers are accessible.
The Foxy 200 should be installed to the right of the BioOptix 10.
The fraction collector requires about 1800 square centimeters
(275 in
2
) of bench space. Ensure that the full motion of the
fraction collector arm is not obstructed.
The Windows PC may be placed anywhere within 2 meters of the
BioOptix 10 unit (the length of the serial control cable).

2.2.2 Electrical
Requirements
The operating voltage of the BioOptix 10 is factory set. Refer to
the serial number label on the right side panel to determine the
electrical requirements.
Teledyne Isco recommends that the BioOptix 10 system runs on
a dedicated AC circuit to prevent abnormal conditions that may
be caused by high current or electrical noise. The BioOptix 10
and Foxy 200 should be connected to the same circuit to prevent
ground loop anomalies.
2.2.3 Assembling the
BioOptix 10
The BioOptix 10 is shipped in two pieces—a column module and
a pump module. After unpacking and inspecting the modules
place them as shown in Figure 2-2 on a sturdy work surface. This
will allow access to the internal electrical and fluid connections.
