2.3 Optional Accessories
Aside of the chemical protection filter, Novasina offers a variety of optional ac-
cessories. This contains additional SAL-T standards, ranging from 4%rH (0.04aw)
up to 97% ( 0.97aw).
Another requested accessory is the SI-Set. To get further product insights, espe-
cially detailed information about the kinetics of the water and the inner structu-
ral changes, sorption isotherms are a good tool to support those investigations.
To get a first impression about the shape of such an isotherm, the Novasina
SI-Set in conjunction with the SAL-T humidity standards do the job. Please note
that it is not possible to generate the same resolution and extent with this me-
thod like in case of using a DVS Isotherm but it costs also just a fraction of such
kind of machines.
2.4 Get it started!
You have unpacked the new LabMaster-aw neo with pleasant anticipation, now
we instruct you how you can get a perfect start working with the new aw-meter.
Got lost somewhere? No worries, there is a Help System on the instrument.
Simply press the yellow button with the question mark and get info about the
programming opportunities in that specific menu.
2.4.1 Switching On and Off
Switch on the instrument by pushing the small black button you can find in the
right lower front-side corner. The system is booting for approx. 45sec. Once com-
pleted, the measurement screen is displayed.
Press the same black button if you want to switch off a LabMaster-aw neo
Important:
Always shut-down instrument COMPLETELY before you remove power plug. Data
or essential system files can be destroyed otherwise.
2.4.2 Preparing the instrument for normal operation
•
Programm correct date and time (in menu „system settings“)
•
Perform a verification or calibration, if the instrument has not been used for
a longer time. If it is brand-new, no verification or calibration is needed to
start working with the LabMaster-aw neo.
