Section 2 - Installation
2.1 Unpacking
Remove the packing list and verify that you have received all your equipment.
If you have any questions about the shipment, please call our Customer Service
Department.
We can also be reached on the Internet.
When you receive the shipment, inspect the container and equipment for any
signs of damage. Note any evidence of rough handling in transit. Immediately report
any damage to the shipping agent.
The carrier will not honor any damage claims unless all shipping material is saved for
inspection. After examining and removing contents, save packing material and carton in the
event reshipment is necessary.
The following items are supplied in the box:
• BB702 Blackbody Calibration Source
• User’s Manual
• Calibration Certificate
• Power Cord
• Reference Port Cord Plug Connector
2.2 Mounting
Mount the unit on a bench, table top or shelf in a horizontal position and operate
at least ten inches from any air obstructions to the fan, front panel, rear panel,
bottom and top of the unit, in an ambient environment between the specified
5 to 45°C (41 to 113°F).
2.3 Ambient Temperature
The target plate of the BB702 can achieve any temperature within the specified tem-
perature range when being operated in ambient temperature up to 32.2°C (90°F).
When operating the unit at higher ambient temperatures, the user must not exceed
the “Maximum Allowable Target Plate Temperature” shown along the y-axis in
Figure 2. Failure to adhere to these guidelines may cause a safety switch inside the
unit to open the heater circuit. If the PID light is blinking or continuously on but there
is no increase in target plate temperature, then the thermal safety switch has tripped.
In this case refer to Section 3-6. When ambient temperatures exceeds 32.2°C (90°F),
every increase in ambient temperature of 2.8°C (5°F) must be accompanied by a
decrease in maximum target plate temperature of 11.1°C (20°F).
