Introduction
Thank you for choosing this Element-A as part of your Elemental Machines Sensory Network

. We are
delighted to help you get up and running as quickly as possible and to support your work. This manual
gives you instructions on how to install it as part of your Elemental Machines Sensory Network
TM
and
supplementary information that you or people in your organization may wish to know regarding
security, specifications and certifications. But first, let’s start off with some important details about
safely using your Element-A:
Safety Information
Battery pack
WARNING: Element-A is powered internally by a non-rechargeable lithium battery pack.
This battery can explode or leak and cause burns if installed backwards, disassembled,
charged, or exposed to water, fire, high temperature or rapid warming from extremely
cold temperature.
For this reason it is important that the box of the Element-A does not exceed its operating limits in
temperature of -10 to 45 °C and in humidity of 0 to 95%RH (non-condensing).
Non-ionizing Radiation exposure
Element-A’s periodically send measurements to the Gateway using the 2.4GHz
Bluetooth
® Low Energy
4.1 Protocol. When transmitting, the radio module inside the Element-A works at a maximum power of
4.8 dBm (3 mW). This level is not recognized as hazardous but several nations (e.g. Canada, Australia)
advise not to use such a device within 20cm of your body i.e. as a personal electronic device without
further precautionary testing.
