Figure 1: Power and communication gland locations
The spectrometer body has an M6 earth attachment point below the probe. This can be used
where local codes require it in addition to earthing through the power supply cable. Please
identify and adhere to any applicable local standards.
WARNING
Failure to properly earth the spectrometer may cause serious
injury or death.

2.2. Purging the IRmadillo
The IRmadillo spectrometer is designed to be continuously purged. This eliminates any
interference in operation caused by changing levels of water vapour and carbon dioxide (CO
2
)
within the instrument, both of which interact strongly with infrared (IR) light.
The IRmadillo is fitted with a single body purge inlet and a breather in the probe. The Inlet is
shipped with a blanking plug that needs to be removed before use.
