Putting Up the Instrument
The R&S
ETL is designed for interior use only. For details on temperature range and
climatic loading, refer to the data sheet.
The R&S
ETL can be used in standalone operation or can be installed in a rack.
Risk of material damage
Make sure that the following conditions are met at the operation site:
●
The ambient temperature does not exceed the range specified in the data sheet.
●
All fan openings are unobstructed and the airflow perforations are unimpeded. The
minimum distance from the wall is at least 10
cm.
Failure to meet these conditions can damage the R&S
ETL or other devices in the test
setup.
If necessary, use proper protective equipment to protect DUTs against electrostatic dis-
charge caused by human contact.
4.2.1
Placing the Instrument on a Bench Top
Always place the R&S
ETL on a stable, flat and level surface with the bottom of the
instrument facing down. The R&S
ETL can be used in horizontal position, standing on
its feet, or propped up on the handle as described in
"To adjust the handle position"
on page 15. Do not place anything on top of the R&S
ETL, if the R&S
ETL is not in a
level position. Keep in mind that the R&S
ETL can cause injury to you or others if not
set up securely.
