Introduction; Unpacking The Power Supply - Fisher Scientific FB300-2 Manual Del Operador

Introduction

Thank you for selecting a Fisher Scientific FB300 Electrophoresis power supply. This manual
describes the operation of the FB300. The power supply that you have purchased is the most
productive and easy-to-use unit available anywhere. This manual should answer any questions
that might arise in operating your power supply; however, don't hesitate to call our Fisher Lab
Equipment Technical Support Hotline at 1-800-943-2006 or 1-800-926-0505 if you need any
assistance.
The FB300 power supply is designed to provide constant voltage or constant current output to
apparatus used in electrophoresis applications. One to three sets of electrophoresis cells can be
connected in parallel and run simultaneously. The FB300 can deliver up to 75W of total output
power. When operating in constant voltage or constant current mode, the power supply
automatically limits the other parameter to either the power supply maximum, or a lower limit if
set by the user. If this non-constant limit is reached, the power supply will automatically switch
control modes, from constant voltage to constant current, or vice versa. In this way, the FB300
protects your electrophoresis cells from damaging over power conditions. The FB300 power
supply also provides for timed operation in either voltage or current modes, and allows an
automatic completion in the event of a power loss if enabled by the user.
