In order for the MB3000 series FTIR spectrometer to meet its performance
specifications, it must be operated under the following conditions:
Storage temperature range:
0ºC to 30ºC, stable within
±
5ºC
Operating temperature
range:
10ºC to 35ºC
Spectrometer specifications at 25ºC ± 5ºC
Humidity range:
5% to 80%, non-condensing
Pollution degree:
2 *
Altitude:
2000 m maximum
Pollution is any addition of foreign matter, solid, liquid, or gaseous (ionized
gases), that may produce a reduction of dielectric strength or surface resistivity.
Pollution degree 2 is normally only non-conductive pollution. However, a
temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected occasionally.
