2.6 Setup and installation
•
Ensure that there is an adequate supply of air to prevent heat building up in the instrument
•
Do not place the instrument on surfaces such as carpets or cloths, or near materials such as
curtains or wall hangings that could prevent the air circulating
•
Do not place the instrument at an inclined angle; it should always be used in a horizontal position
•
Keep the instrument away from apparatus, equipment, machines and installations that generate
strong magnetic fields
•
Do not place heavy objects on the instrument
•
Condensation can form inside the instrument if it is taken from a warm room into a cold room;
wait a few hours before switching on the instrument
•
Make sure that the display panel is not mechanically stressed
•
The instrument must have reached thermal equilibrium
•
Select the installation location so that the instrument is not exposed to extreme temperatures
(operating temperature range 0 to 50
°
C) or temperature variations, nor to humidity, direct sunlight,
incandescent lamps, dust, oils, organic solvents, other aerosols, severe vibrations or mechanical
shocks. In very dirty industrial environments, it is recommended touse a suitable protective
enclosure.
2.7 Function test
After switching on the instrument, the following text appears on the display for about 3 seconds:
Then the instrument switches directly to the measurement menu.
2.8 Calibration
The meter was calibrated before shipping. The calibration history of the instruments used for the
calibration can be traced to the government measurement standard in accordance with DIN ISO
9000 ff. The meter should be recalibrated after a period of about one year. Calibration is
performed using the RS232 interface, and should only be performed at the manufacturers
premises. The customer can perform the calibration in-house by purchasing the PC software
DO6-P001.
2.9 Storage
For long term storage, pack the unit, along with a desiccant, into an airtight, sealed polythene
bag. Do not store the unit where it will be exposed to sunlight or any other light sources. Take
care to ensure that nothing comes in contact with the display panel. The storage temperature
range is 0 to 70
°
C; however, to maximise the lifespan of the display, the temperature should not
exceed 50
°
C.
