06.0 Operating Enviroment

Locate the ProJet™ Printing System in a convenient location meeting the requirements specified in this document. To ensure optimum
performance, it is important that the printer should be installed in a clean, dry, air-conditioned room. Avoid placing the printer in any environment
with airborne contaminant, including cigarette smoke, fumes, and mechanical particulates that can adversely affect the long term functioning of
this equipment.

Each ProJet™ Production Printing System undergoes an operational test at the factory, and is shipped with a limited,
residual amount of build and support material already in its internal reservoir. When ordering, order enough build and
support materials for each MDMs supplied and for reserves when running production builds. This will ensure adequate
supplies of material are available to avoid build delays.

06.2 Humidity

06.3 Lighting

06.4 Vibration and Shock

06.1 Air Conditioning

A number of the ProJet™ 5000 System's internal electronic components as well as the part material, are sensitive both to ambient temperature
and, to some extent, humidity. In addition, the build process itself can be temperature-sensitive within certain limits. The operating temperature
range should be between 18-28°C (64-82°F); optimally approximately 21-24°C (70-75°F).
The facility air conditioning system where the printer is operating should be capable of dissipating 1.0 kW (3412 Btu or 0.28 ton U.S. refrigeration)
of heat or equivalent to deep temperature requirements. Ensure that any air conditioning ducting does not vent directly onto the machine.
