more than 10 days, the instrument needs to be energized for a "dry-out"
period of 2 hours before it can be assumed to meet all of the safety re-
quirements of the IEC 1010-1. If the product is wet or has been in a wet
environment, take necessary measures to remove moisture prior to apply-
ing power such as storage in a low humidity temperature chamber operat-
ing at 50°C for 4 hours or more.
•
Overhead clearance is required. Do not place the instrument under a cabi-
net or other structure. Always leave enough clearance to allow for safe
and easy insertion and removal of probes.
•
The instrument is intended for indoor use only.
•
The bath is a precision instrument. Although it has been designed for op-
timum durability and trouble free operation, it must be handled with care.
Position the bath before the tank is filled with fluid by rolling it into
place.
