Safety Notices
Symbols
This manual uses the following symbols to highlight specific areas important to the safe and proper use of the Generator:
A WARNING notice denotes a hazard. It calls attention to an operating procedure, process or similar, which if not correctly performed or adhered to, could cause personal injury or in the worst case death. Do not proceed beyond a WARNING notice until the indicated conditions are fully understood or met. A CAUTION notice denotes a hazard. It calls attention to an operating procedure, process or similar, which if not correctly performed or adhered to, could cause damage to the Generator or the application. Do not proceed beyond a CAUTION notice until the indicated conditions are fully understood or met.
Safety Notice to Users
This site preparation guide must be read thoroughly and understood before installation and operation of your Peak Precision 500 Hydrogen Generator. Incorrect preparation or use of the Generator in a manner not specified by Peak Scientific MAY impair the SAFETY provided by the equipment. When handling, operating or preparing for installation, personnel must employ safe practices and observe all relevant local health and safety requirements and regulations.

Prolonged Storage
The generator must not be left in prolonged storage. If the unit is intended to be left unused for a period of time, then it must be switched on for 1 hour each month, to allow the water to be filtered through the system.

Water Quality and Storage
Use only High Grade Deionised water, which must have a conductivity of less than or equal to 1µS/cm at 20°C and should be replaced monthly. Use of water in the unit with a purity of less than specified will result in a lower efficiency of hydrogen production, failure of the generator and loss of warranty. Store water in a dark container away from direct sunlight.

Automatic Filling
The Precision Hydrogen generator uses an automatic water filling system, whereby sensors in the unit’s internal water tanks detect when the water level reaches a minimum. This then refills the tank using a rear connection to an external DI water supply. The unit should be connected to the Water supply as shown below.
