1.4

 

Unpacking the Instrument 

When unpacking and inspecting your system components, you need to do the following: 

1.

 

Check all materials in the container against the enclosed packing list.  

 

Note: 

LumaSense Technologies cannot be responsible for shortages against the 

packing list unless a claim is immediately filed with the carrier. Final claim and 
negotiations with the carrier must be completed by the customer.

 

2.

 

Carefully unpack and inspect all components for visible damage.  

3.

 

Save all packing materials, including the carrier’s identification codes, until you have 
inspected all components and find that there is no obvious or hidden damage. 

 

Note: 

Before shipment, each instrument is assembled, calibrated, and tested at the 

LumaSense Factory. If you note any damage or suspect damage, immediately contact 
the carrier and LumaSense Technologies, Inc.
