• Storage Temperature and Humidity
Keep the recordings in a cool and dry area for a longer lasting image. Extreme temperature
and humidity (above 80° F and 80% Humidity) should be avoided.
• Solvent Reactions
Do not store the recordings in plastic bags, acetate sheet protectors, and similar items made
from petroleum products. These products emit a small amount of vapor which will, over a
period of time, deteriorate the image on the chart paper.
• Adhesive Tape
Never place adhesive tape over recordings. The reaction between the adhesive compound
and the Chemical/Thermal paper can destroy the image within hours.
• Archives
We recommend that if long term archives are required, make a photocopy of the recordings
as back-up. Under normal office filing conditions the recordings should retain acceptable
image quality for about 5 years.
