Choosing a Location
t Select the proper setup location:
An optimal location guarantees accuracy and reliability . Ensure that the following
ambient conditions are met:
– Set up the analyzer on a stable, even surface that is not exposed to vibrations
(e .g ., weighing stone) .
– Maintain free access to the analyzer at all times .
– Make sure to choose a place where excessive heat cannot build up .
– Leave enough space between it and materials that are affected by heat .
Choose a location that is not subject to the following negative influences:
– Heat (heater or direct sunlight)
– Drafts from open windows, AC systems, and doors
– Extreme vibrations during measurement
– Heavy traffic areas (personnel)
– Extreme humidity
– Electromagnetic fields
Acclimatization
Condensation from humidity can form on the surfaces of a cold device when it is
brought into a substantially warmer area . You should therefore let a device that has
been disconnected from its power source acclimatize for approximately 2 hours
before reconnecting it to the power .
