kg)} and, if applicable,

does not have a steel (iron) top

d. . Materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, or non-magnetic stainless steel

are suitable surfaces. Ensure that no steel bar, supporting the work surface, runs directly beneath the magnet.

e. provides adequate bench space — 44 in. (112 cm) in length and 30 in. (76 cm) in depth minimum - SMART

f. allows the instrument to be connected to a dedicated, grounded outlet as specified in the instrument

10. Unpack the power conditioner and place it on the work bench or the floor as far away from the SMART Trac II
Magnet as possible.

CAUTION

Ensure that the power conditioner is not placed in close proximity with the SMART Trac II magnet to prevent
demagnitization of the magnet.

11. Carefully connect each cable provided in the SMART Trac II cable kit and the cable in the accesssory kit. Ensure that
each cable is connected properly. (Refer to the illustration on pages 4 and 5. Use caution to prevent bending or
damaging the pins of the connectors.

as illustrated on page 4. Place the heater block inside the heater. Press the “Power” button first, then press the
“On/Off” button as illustrated below. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions included with the heater block to set the
temperature of the heater to 40 °C. Place the Trac Standards (p/n 160065 and 160570) in the heater block and
permit the standards to heat for at least four (4) hours. Note: The label on the bottom of the heater indicates the
actual voltage

13. Plug the power cords from the SMART Turbo and the processor module into the power conditioner.

14. Plug the power cord of the power conditioner into the appropriate electrical outlet. Turn the power conditioner on.

16. Permit the system to warm up.

CAUTION

The SMART Trac II System requires a warm up period of at least4-8hours prior to operation. If the
instrument is switched off for an extended period of time (weekend, holidays, etc.), ensure that warmup
time is permitted prior to use.

17. When the warm-up time is complete, the blue indicator light on the front of the magnet will remain constant.
indicating that the heater is functioning properly.

18. Perform the QuickCheck MONITOR tests as outlined in the instructions supplied in the MONITOR package.

19. Perform the magnet temperature and homogeneity tests.

a. Temperature - From the SMART Turbo Main Menu, select “7 - SMART Trac.” Select “Next Page,” “1 - Diag-

nostics,” and “1-System Check.” Variable number 17 is the magnet temperature. The temperature should be
between 39 °C and 41 °C.

b. Homogeneity - Press any key on the keyboard. Select “4 - Magnet Homogeneity.” Follow the on-screen

instructions. The displayed homogeneity should be <20.0.

20. The SMART Trac II is ready for operation. Contact the local sales representative to arrange initial training or refer to

the SMART Trac II Operation Manual to begin analysis.
