Your facility must be wired with the following equipment.
• | For 100–120 Volts AC—A 20 amp grounded dedicated line with proper voltage and electrical ground is required. |
North America and Japan—Receptacle: NEMA 5-20
Interpower Corp. Receptacle, part # 88030080 (or equivalent).
• | For 200–240 Volts AC—At minimum, 10 amp grounded line with proper voltage and electrical ground is required. Use a higher rating as needed according to requirements for your region. |
• | If the voltage fluctuates more than 10%, a power line regulator is required. |

The instrument is equipped with an international standard IEC 60320 C13 receptacle and is shipped with a region-specific power cord.
Hazardous voltages are removed from the instrument only when the power cord is disconnected from the AC power source.
To obtain equivalent receptacles or power cords that comply with local standards, consult a third-party supplier such as Interpower Corporation (www.interpower.com).
Never use an extension cord to connect the instrument to a power supply.

The instrument has a connection to protective earth through the enclosure. The safety ground on the power cord returns protective earth to a safe reference. The protective earth connection on the power cord must be in good working condition when using this device. |

The iScan System is shipped with a region-specific uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Illumina is not responsible for runs affected by interrupted power regardless of whether the instrument is connected to a UPS. Standard generator-backed power is often not uninterruptible and a brief power outage occurs before power resumes.
The UPS may be hot. Handle with caution.

* Backup run time information is based on estimates. Actual run time can vary, depending on the loads and power factors of the protected equipment and the condition of the UPS batteries.

Only Illumina field personnel are qualified to replace internal fuses. The power entry module includes two input fuses on the high-voltage input lines.
iScan fuses: The fuses are size 5 x 20 mm and rated for 10 amps, 250 VAC, Slo-Blo.
AutoLoader 2.x fuses: The fuses are size 2 x 5 mm and rated for 2 amps, 250 VAC, T Class.
