Troubleshooting
Operating the Analyzer With Covers Removed

Operating the Analyzer With Covers Removed

Protect Against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

This is important. If not properly protected against, electrostatic discharge can 
seriously damage your analyzer, resulting in costly repair.

Do not operate the analyzer with the outer cover removed for more than 

30 minutes, as this could cause the analyzer to overheat which could 

result in costly damage.

To reduce the chance of electrostatic discharge, follow all of the 

recommendations outlined in 

“Electrostatic Discharge Protection” on 

page 1-7

, for all of the procedures in this chapter.
