Temperature range 10-40°C; If the cuvette heating is used the range is 10-30°C.
If the instrument is subjected to extreme temperature changes, it may be necessary to allow the
instrument to equilibrate. Turn the instrument off and then on again once thermal equilibrium has
been established (~2-3 hours).
Maximum relative humidity (non-condensing) of 80% and up to 31°C decreasing linearly to 50% at
40°C.
The instrument must be placed on a stable, level surface that can support 4-5 kg. Ensure that air can
circulate freely around the instrument. Confirm while powered on that no materials reduce air

plastic parts.
The equipment should be positioned such that in the event of an emergency the main plug can be
easily located and removed.
Always carry the instrument by holding the main corpus of the instrument and not e.g. on the optional
attached display or NanoVolume pedestal.
The equipment must be connected to power with the 60W power supply/cord supplied by Implen
