11 Technical aspects

Static charge

Electrostatic charges should generally be avoided. Electrostatical

ly floating objects (like metallic housings with no earth connection,

for example) are unprotected against charges transferred from

dust, aerosols and the like.

Battery change

After a change of batteries the

EX-TEC OD 4

and the

EX-TEC GM 4

with an

HCl sensor

require a minimum warm-up period of 15 mi

nutes for a stable zero point to be reached.
