Unpacking and Checking a Cell Kit
This section is primarily intended for the user who has just received a new Paint Test Cell Kit.
Checking for Shipping Damage
Your new kit was shipped disassembled to minimize shipping damage. All of the pieces were carefully
packaged in anticipation of rough handling in shipment. Unfortunately, no matter how carefully glass pieces are
packaged, damage sometimes occurs.
When you first receive your kit, please check it for any signs of shipping damage. Be especially careful if the
shipping container shows signs of rough handling.
Obviously, the glass piece is the most susceptible to damage. Check the glass piece for chipping and small
cracks as well as for major damage.
If any parts were broken in shipment, please take a photograph and contact our USA facility or your local
Gamry representative as soon as possible. In most cases, Gamry should have replacement parts in stock. Please
retain the shipment
’
s packaging material for a possible claim against the shipping company.
Parts List
Please check the contents of your kit versus the packing list in Table 1. When shipped, all of the components
should be labeled with their Gamry part number. If you are checking the completeness of an older kit, most of
the components are shown in photographs throughout this manual.

Warning:
Never use any glass parts that are chipped or cracked. Any damage to glass
increases the probability of additional damage. Broken glass can have extremely sharp edges that represent
a significant safety hazard. Injuries from broken glass can be quite severe.
