Installation Location
The chamber will produce a significant amount of heat during normal operation. Locate the
chamber in a room with adequate ventilation to prevent excessive heat build-up. The chamber
generates a heat load of up to 5,000 btuh during a continuous cool down from a high
temperature.
The chamber must be on a solid and level floor. Allow enough space around the chamber to
permit serviceability and the removal of the service access panels, which are located on each side
and the rear.
! CAUTION: The minimum clearance you should allow for proper ventilation around the
chamber must be at least 6" from both the left and right side, and 12" from the
rear.
!
CAUTION: This chamber is designed for operation in a conditioned laboratory
environment. Operation above 30°C (85°F) or below 16°C (60°F) ambient
room temperature is NOT recommended.
