0.4 Safety Instructions
This measuring instrument conforms to the EN 61326-1: 2006-05
standard and fulfils the requirements of applicable European and
national directives. Appropriate declarations and documentation are
located with the manufacturer. The user must read these opera ting
instructions in order to guarantee problem -free instrument
operation and operational safety. The measuring instrument may
only be operated under the specified climatic conditions. These
conditions can be found in Section 3.1 "Specifications". In addition,
this measuring instrument may only be operated under the
conditions and for the purpose it was designed for. The operational
safety and functionality are no longer guaranteed if the instrument
is modified or converted. Gann Mess - u. Regeltechnik GmbH
assumes no liability for any ensuing damage. All risks are assumed
solely by the user.
The instrument may not be stored or operated in
aggressive atmospheres or atmospheres containing
solvents!
Static electricity
- At low wood humidities, below approx.
12% and low air humidity (especially in the winter
months), high-voltage static electricity charges may build
up, favoured by external influences (friction during
material transport, high environmental insulation value),
which may not only lead to strong fluctuations in the
measured data or negative values, but also to the
destruction of electrical components in the instrument.
Even the instrument operator may
— inadvertently —
contribute to the build up of a static charge by the clothing
worn. A considerable improvement can be achieved if the
operator and the instrument are absolutely still during
measuring, as well as by earthing (contact with conducting
metal, water or heating pipes, etc.).
