Caution
As far as possible, keep the extensometer away from exposure to conductive dust
or debris, from breaking carbon fiber specimens, for example.
Conductive dust or debris may cause a malfunction in the extensometer electronics. If
this is likely to be a problem, you are advised to surround the load string with a
transparent protective shield, separating it from the extensometer.
