Environmental Requirements
The normal operating environment for the TSQ 8000 Evo MS must have the following
characteristics:
• Indoor use only
• Altitude up to 2000 meters
• Maximum relative humidity between 5% and 95% up to 31 °C. The maximum relative
humidity decreases linearly to 67% as the temperature climbs to 35 °C.
Use the following guidelines to ensure your site has the proper environmental conditions for
the system:
1. Ensure that your room temperature is 15–35 °C (59–95 °F). The analytical performance
is only confirmed for these temperatures. For best performance, the operating
temperature should be constant. Use
Table 5 to calculate the amount of heat your system
will generate and ensure your air-conditioning system can handle that amount of heat.
2. Ensure that the relative humidity in your laboratory is between 5 and 95% with no
condensation. A temperature and humidity monitor in your laboratory helps ensure that
the climate is within these specifications.
IMPORTANT If you are not operating the TSQ 8000 Evo MS, it is safe to leave the
instrument powered on in a room with a temperature between 5 and 40 °C.
