1.4 Safety Considerations
Carefully inspect all components for shipping damage. Report any shipping
damage immediately to the shipping company and Newport.
The following terms are used in this manual that relate to your safety.
WARNING
Warning is used to indicate dangers that could result in personal
injury.
CAUTION
Caution is used to indicate situations that may result in damage
to components of your Newport Vibration Control System.
1.5 Table Placement
To ensure optimal performance from your Vibration Control System, it
should be located on a level surface. Uneven floors may cause difficulty
during the leveling of the table top if their irregularity is outside of the
adjustment range of the isolators.
The S-2000 Stabilizer™ isolator must be mounted so that its axis is not more
than 0.5 degrees from vertical. This is necessary for the isolator to function
properly in the horizontal mode. Note: 0.5 degrees is equal to 0.09 (2.2 mm)
inches in 10.0 inches which is the isolator base diameter. A typical spirit
level will easily measure 0.5 degrees and can be used to check the vertical
alignment of each isolator.
If the floor where the isolators are being mounted has a depression of more
than 0.09 inches under one side of the base, then the floor should be grouted
or shimmed level at this location.
If the system is not located on the ground floor of the building, it should be
located near primary vertical structures such as exterior walls or support
columns. By locating the table near these structures, the effects of low
frequency floor motion will be minimized, thus increasing the performance of
the table. It is also advisable to avoid locations adjacent to major sources of
vibration from operating machinery such as elevators, air conditioning plants,
or factory equipment.
