Instruction Manual for the ATL's: 2200, 2300, 2400 and 2500
4. Installation instructions
4.1 Chemical reclamation
The ATL-2200/2300 collect the used chemistry in six 1-liter bottles. If you use our support table (#4221), it is possible to purchase the 15-liter chemical collection cart (#4225). It includes six 15-liter bottles designed specifically for the support table. Models ATL-2400/2500 collect the used chemicals in either six 1-liter bottles on the face of the processor or six 15-liter bottles stored below.

4.2 Water connection
Your new AutoLab uses two water connections with European hose thread. Two washers and two brass adapters are included to convert the threads to standard US threading. The two water connections are located in the rear of the processor above the fan and power cord. Connect the gray hoses to the solenoids, the hoses to the brass adapters, and the adapters to your cutoff valve. Make sure you use the washers at every connection.
The tempered water supply connects to the solenoid coded with a red dot. The cold water supply connects to the solenoid with the blue dot. The tempered water supply should always be set to within ± 0.5°C of the processing temperature. Screw the hoses on tightly, but do not strip the threads.
Depending on the condition of your tap water, you may want to install a water filtering system to prevent any contamination caused by particulate matter.
4.3 Electrical connection
Observe your local electrical code!
Plug the processor into a grounded 110-120V UL approved outlet. It is extremely important that the outlet be grounded. JOBO strongly recommends the use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
Warning: The correct electrical connection AND grounding of the processor are necessary to avoid the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury. The owner of the processor bears the personal responsibility for ensuring that the electrical connection is safe.
The processor is equipped with a grounded, three-prong plug. Insert the plug into grounded outlets only. Do not alter the plug. If you do not have a proper outlet, consult your local electrician to have one installed. To prevent condensation in the microprocessor, the fan runs continuously when the unit is ON and continues to run for three hours after the processor has been turned OFF.
4.3.1 Emergency power supply
Your new AutoLab comes with a battery system to continue a process if the power has been interrupted when the power is restored (it remembers where it was in the process). However, if the power is off for more than a few seconds your process run could be ruined so we recommend you always use a battery backup system such as our #4268.
