Figure 2–2: Batteries into Handheld Unit
Using the AC Adapter to Run Instrument
The AC adapter allows you to power the D
UST
T
RAK
™
monitor from an AC
wall outlet. When using the AC adapter, the batteries (if installed) will be
bypassed.
Battery Charging
This instrument will charge the Lithium Ion battery packs. Insert the
batteries into the battery compartment, plug the instrument into AC power,
and turn the instrument on. Batteries will charge only when the instrument is
on and in stand-by mode. Batteries will not be charged if the instrument is
turned off or is actively taken measurements. Charging will stop when the
batteries have been fully charged.
Inlet Cap
When using the D
UST
T
RAK
™
monitor to sample environmental air, the inlet
cap should be put over the instrument. This cap will keep large objects from
dropping into and plugging the inlet. The cap will also keep direct light from
shinning into the chamber and skewing the results.
The inlet cap can simply be pressed onto the instruments inlet.
