4.1 Electrical installation
THIS INSTRUMENT MUST BE EARTHED
Before connecting the instrument please read
and understand these instructions and ensure
that the line supply corresponds to that shown
on the rating plate. The instrument is designed
for use on 230V 50Hz. The power consumption
of the unit is 300W for the SI500 and 500W for
the SI600. Ensure that a mains supply lead with
the correct ratings for the product is used. The
instrument is fitted with an IEC socket at the rear
of the instrument for connection of the mains
lead. The mains supply lead is the means of
disconnection for the instrument.
caution: Fuses are fitted in both live and
neutral lines.
Fuses:
230V - 3.15A anti surge fuse. For all other
voltages always replace with an equivalent fuse
type and rating as those being removed,
alternatively see rating plate for fuse type and
rating.
This unit is supplied with two mains leads fitted
with IEC plugs for connection to the instrument.
One lead has a U.K. 3 pin plug and the other has
a 2-pin "Shuko" plug for connection to the
mains. Choose the lead appropriate for your
electrical installation and discard the other.
Should neither lead be suitable, take the lead
with the U.K. plug and replace the plug with a
suitable alternative. This involves cutting off the
moulded plug, preparing the cable and
connecting to the rewireable plug in accordance
with its instructions.

NOTE: Refer to the equipment's rating plate to
ensure that the plug and fusing are suitable for

the voltage and wattage stated. The wires in the
mains cable are coloured as follows:
LIVE - BROWN
NEUTRAL - BLUE
EARTH - GREEN/YELLOW
The appropriate mains lead should be connected
to the instrument BEFORE connection to the
mains supply. Should the mains lead need
replacement a cable of 1mm
code H05VV-F connected to an IEC320 plug
should be used. N.B. the U.K. mains lead is
protected by a 10A fuse mounted in the plug
top.

4.2 positioning
Place the unit on a strong, sturdy, level, non-slip
surface ensuring that there is sufficient free
space on all sides without coming into contact
with anything during use. Allow at least 100mm
at the rear for easy access to the mains power
supply lead and 200mm at each side of the
instrument.
4.3 Fixing feet brackets (Si600 only)
To prevent the unit from vibrating or moving
during use, the SI600 must be secured to the
bench top using feet brackets. Two feet brackets
are provided for securing the rear feet.
Ensure the unit is positioned correctly. From the
sides of the unit, slide the feet brackets around
each of the rear feet (1). Secure in place by fixing
with two No.8 x 20mm screws (2).
Connect to the electricity supply - DO NOT
SWITCH ON.
