Chapter 2:

Prerequisites

Before you install the filtered enclosure, you must be certain that the area is level
and of solid construction. In addition, a dedicated source of electrical power
should be located near the installation site to power the filtered enclosure.
Additionally, the enclosure should be strategically placed in the lab to provide
efficient workflow.

Carefully read this chapter to learn the requirements for your installation site:

The support, vibration and movement requirements.

The temperature variation requirements.

The humidity and static electricity requirements.

The location and air current requirements.

The exhaust and blower requirements.

The electrical power requirements.

The space requirements.

Refer to Appendix B: Dimensions for complete enclosure dimensions.

Refer to Appendix C: Specifications for complete filtered enclosure electrical and
environmental conditions, specifications and requirements.

Support, Vibration and Movement Requirements

At a minimum, the supporting structure usually consists of a base cabinet or stand.

For weighing applications the ability for analytical balances to accommodate
vibration varies with type and brand. More advanced balances have improved
tolerance, however in the preparation of a balance enclosure site, please consider
the following:

Avoid tubular stands or mobile benches that have the potential of moving
when touched.

A bench that is rigidly mounted to the floor or fixed to the wall, but not both,
may be appropriate.
