2.2 Appropriate Locations for Using the Instrument
Well-Ventilated Location
Inlet holes are located on the top panel and the left and right side panels of the instrument.
In addition, there are outlet holes for the cooling fan on the rear panel. To prevent internal
overheating, allow for enough space around the instrument (see the figure below) and do not
block the inlet and outlet holes.
10 cm

10 cm or more
10 cm

When connecting cables, allow for enough space, above and beyond the space shown in the
figure above, to carry out the procedure.
Ambient Temperature and Humidity
Use the instrument in the following environment.
Ambient temperature
5°C to 40°C
Ambient humidity
20% to 80%RH when the printer is not used. (No condensation)
35% to 80%RH when the printer is used. (No condensation)
Note
• To ensure high measurement accuracy, operate the instrument in the 23°C ± 5°C temperature
range and 55% ± 10%RH.
• Condensation may occur if the instrument is moved to another place where the ambient
temperature or humidity is higher, or if the temperature changes rapidly. In such cases, allow the
instrument adjust to the new environment for at least an hour before using the instrument.
