Introduction to the Razor

The RazorTM parallel cleavage system is an isolated heating module designed for performing the peptide cleavage step. The isolated
module provides the advantage of protecting the Liberty Blue system from the harsh reagents required for the cleavage all while
allowing the use of heat to provide high quality peptides in excellent yields in a fraction of the time.

Hardware Installation

Installation Site Preparation

The Razor parallel cleavage system should be installed in a functioning laboratory fume hood. Choose a location that:

• can accomodate the Razor system [15” x 11.5” x 15.5” (38.1 cm x 29.2 cm x 39.4 cm) (L x W x H)] as well as an

additional 8” (20 cm) of open space on each side and 6” (15 cm) at the rear of the instrument for proper ventilation.

• is free from vibration of large equipment and/or excessive walk-through trac,

• provides a temperature range of 41 - 104 ºF (5 - 40 ºC) and a humidity range of 10 - 85% relative humidity

• provides adequate space for sample handling, and

• permits the system to be connected to a dedicated, grounded 120 VAC outlet. The Razor should operated on a

stabilized, constant voltage AC power supply. To operate properly, the voltage must be within ±10% of the specied
level.
