Congratulations on your

purchase of a CEM MARS 6.

The MARS 6 that you have chosen will be a valuable addition to
your laboratory.

To prepare for installing your system, a designated area with a sturdy
workbench should be arranged to allow the MARS 6 unit to be
conveniently located near a hood or other suitable fume disposal
mechanism. The system must be located within 8 feet of a hood or
exhaust line for proper ventilation.

Do not place the instrument within a fume hood. The system
comes with 8 feet of  exible exhaust hose (3 1/8” OD x 2 13/16” ID).
The built-in exhaust system will push fumes through the hose at
125 CFM. To properly vent the MARS 6, your hood or exhaust line
must draw at least 125 CFM at the point of connection.

Preparing an Installation Location

1. Provide at least 8 inches space on each side and 6
inches space in the rear for proper ventilation.

Dimensions:

21 in W x 25 in D x 25 in H
Weight 140 lbs without vessels

2. Allow adequate bench space for sample handling

3. Ensure the area is free from the vibration of large
equipment and/or walk-through tra c.

4. Ensure the area is away from the primary laboratory
exits and walk-through tra c.

5. Location should have a temperature range of
41oF (5 oC) to 104 oF (40 oC).

6. Location should permit the instrument to be
connected to a dedicated, grounded outlet.

The MARS 6 unit requires 208/230 VAC, 60 Hz, 15A @ 230 VAC, or
200/220/240 VAC, 50 Hz, 15A@ 240 VAC, single phase power. It
requires a 250 volt-15 Amp rated receptacle (NEMA 6-15R or a 250
volt- 20 Amp rated receptacle (NEMA 6-20R). It is non-locking.
