 The HTC-3000 itself is designed for an operating voltage range of 5-12V DC. If there is a switch on the back labeled with two different voltage ranges it can also be used with the voltages given on the labels. The HTC-3000 itself is designed for an operating voltage range of 5-12V DC.

-Be sure to flip the switch in the right direction <color #ff0000>before</fc> connecting the power supply, as the HTC might be damaged by a too high voltage. If you are applying a voltage between 5-12V, make sure that the switch also is in the correct position, as otherwise the voltage might be too low for the HTC to work.+Be sure to flip the switch in the right direction <color #ff0000>before</color> connecting the power supply, as the HTC might be damaged by a too high voltage.

 When first using the HTC, be sure to adjust the potentiometer on the front panel labelled "Current" so that the HTC won't draw any more than the maximum current given on the back of the HTC housing. In case this wasn't done, a fuse installed on the back panel will protect the circuitry but will have to be changed after the first few cooling/heating cycles. Using the current limiter on a lab power supply will NOT have the same effect as the supply voltage will drop in order to reduce the current flowing which might lead to the voltage dropping out of the operating range of the HTC, basically turning it off. When first using the HTC, be sure to adjust the potentiometer on the front panel labelled "Current" so that the HTC won't draw any more than the maximum current given on the back of the HTC housing.
