Congratulations! You have purchased a precision vacuum positioning device from Nor-Cal Products. This unit is capable of many years of use with minimal care and maintenance. This manual is a tool to aid you in obtaining this service. We at Nor-Cal Products encourage your comments and suggestions on this manual. Product Description The STS Sample Platen Entry/Storage/Exchange System is a mechanism which allows the experimenter greater capabilities in sample parameters.
Unpacking This sample transfer system is normally attached to other equipment. Our normal packing material is custom foam-in- place packing. We have found this the only system to provide adequate protection for shipment. The foam is separated approximately half way inside the crate with thin blue plastic. We strongly recommend the packing be saved for possible future shipment or equipment storage. Installation ******** WARNING ********* Shipping vibration can loosen screws.
Arm / Dock transfer: The STS-TTC Series sample transfer system allows electrical information transfer for a type “K” thermocouple. The dock assembly employs four metal fingers which grip tapered ramps (inserts) about the perimeter of the sample platen. Two of these ramps and correspondingly, two of the fingers are manufactured from special materials (1 each set, Chromel and Alumel). It is necessary to install the platen in the correct orientation to maintain this electrical connection.
