2.1 Setting up the instrument
2.1.1 Packaging
The 845 Eluent Synthesizer is supplied together with the separately
packed accessories in special packagings containing shock-absorbing
foam linings designed to provide excellent protection. Please store all
these special packagings as only they assure transport of the
instrument free from damage.
2.1.2 Check
After receipt, immediately check whether the shipment is complete and
has arrived without damage (compare with delivery note and list of
accessories in Section 5.2). In the case of transport damage, see in-
structions in Section 5.3.1 "Warranty".
2.1.3 Location
This instrument was developed for internal laboratory use; it should not
be used in explosion-endangered locations.
Place the instrument on a suitable vibration-free laboratory bench, pro-
tected as much as possible from corrosive atmospheres and contact
with chemicals. Choose a location where the temperature is usually be-
tween +5°C and +45°C. The instrument should be protected against
excessive variations in temperature and direct sunlight.
