CMM USER'S MANUAL (E2.51)

2.4  Installation

Improper handling of any components inside the Gasmet CMM may damage the equipment. Thus,
adjusting any components inside the Gasmet CMM voids warranty. Be always very careful if you move
the instrument.

2.4.1  Explosion protection

For  your  own  safety,  the  Gasmet  CMM  must  not  be  used  in  hazardous  areas.  The
standard cabinet is not explosion proof.

Gasmet  Technologies  Oy  takes  no  responsibility  if  the  Gasmet  CMM  is  used  in
hazardous areas.

2.4.2  Aggressive condensate and temperature

Aggressive  condensate  may  have  formed.  Wear protected glasses  and  proper protective clothing.
Wear protective gloves, because surfaces’ temperatures can be high.

The  Gasmet CMM  must  be  mounted  vertically.  An  extreme  inclination  of  the  system  cabinet  may
interfere with the operation of the analyzer. The installation location must preferably be free of strong
vibrations, as well. It is recommended that the instrument is operated in the following environmental
conditions:

·

  0 - 40 °C, optimum 15 - 25

°

C, non-condensing

·

  < 90 % relative humidity at 20

°

C, non-condensing

The ambient temperature of installation location must preferably be stable. The Gasmet CMM cabinet
includes  air  conditioning  unit.  Never  block  the  air  circulation  or  use  The  Gasmet  CMM  in  dusty
environments. Dust can block the air circulation and penetrate into the cabinet damaging analyzer’s
electronics.
