SPECIFIC CONDITIONS OF SAFE USE
WARNING
POTENTIAL ELECTROSTATIC CHARGING HAZARD. SEE INSTRUCTIONS.
The MLTX2 has a maximum measured capacitance from housing and/or accessory to ground of 13pF. When
possible, care should be taken to reduce the potential for generation of static electricity, such as:
•
Controlling the work environment humidity level to minimize generation of static electricity
•
Protect the transmitter from direct airflow
•
Touch the transmitter with an insulating object or glove whenever possible
•
Use in conjunction with gas detection monitoring
•
Do not use in an area that is known to be a static electricity hazard
Additional information on electrostatics can be found in EN TR50404 and IEC/TR60079-32. Joysticks used in
the transmitter may have >10% by mass of aluminum. The bulk of this material will be inside the transmitter
and will not be accessible.
