• The instrument can stand completely stable.
• The rear air slots will not be covered.
• The unit always has at least 10 cm (approximately 4 inches) to the next wall or neighboring instrument.
• The temperature (normal ambient) is between 20°C and 30°C with humidity levels between 20% and 80% non-condensing.

2)
Open the instrument door by lifting up on the handle on the top of the instrument. Lift the door all the way up and back.
Remove the piece of foam and then remove the strip of cardboard from around the thermal block assembly (see Figure 4).
The optical module housing carrier is positioned to the left of the thermal block assembly.
Slide the optical module housing carrier to the right until it is centered in the opening of the instrument door (as shown in
Figure 5). Use the indentation on the top of the carrier to help slide it.
3)
The Aria
D
x instrument is shipped in two separate containers.
The small container holds the power cord. The large container
holds the instrument and accessory tray.
Optical modules are packed separately.
Open the small shipping container. Remove the power cord
and set it aside for now.
Make sure that the large shipping container is in the upright
position (Figure 1), then cut the four plastic straps that hold
the container together.
Open the top flaps of the large container. Inside the container is an accessory tray (Figure 2), which contains the Certificate of
Conformance and the installation poster.
Remove the accessory tray and set it aside.
Remove the foam support that sits on top of the instrument in the shipping container.
Grip a handle on each side of the shipping container and lift up to remove the box sleeve that surrounds the
instrument. The instrument sits on the base of the shipping container, as shown in Figure 3.
