Safety
3.1
Environmental conditions
Canid Gait measuring systems are suitable for application in dry interiors with level ground
such as those in hospitals, doctors' surgeries and laboratories.
Temperature
10°C to 40°C
Relative humidity
30% to 70%, non condensing
Air pressure
700 to 1100 hPa
WARNING
Canid Gait systems must NOT be operated in wet zones, wet rooms
(swimming pools, saunas) or climatic chambers.
Direct contact with liquids must always be avoided, as the measuring
system is not protected against the entry of liquids. Liquids penetrat-
ing the device can cause fire, electrical shock or other severe acci-
dents.
The Canid Gait system is NOT specified for the operation in vacuum,
hyperbaric or altitude chambers.
The measuring systems are not intended for operation in potentially
explosive atmospheres of medically used rooms or oxygen-enriched
atmospheres.
The devices must not be operated in proximity to e.g. engines or
transformers with a high connected load as well as mains current
lines, as electrical or magnetic interference fields can falsify correct
measurements resp. turn them impossible. Therefore, the devices
have to be protected against humidity. The ventilation slots of the
treadmills must be free at all times, so that air can circulate freely.
3.2
Storage and Transport
Storage and transport of the measuring system are only to be effected in the original pack-
aging provided by zebris.
Temperature
-20°C to +70°C
Relative humidity
max. 95%, non condensing
Protect from moisture
NOTE
All Canid Gait systems can be stored without power supply for a max-
imum of 6 to 9 months. After this period, the battery may be totally
discharged due to lacking power supply. If the storage of the device
exceeds this period, a re-programming of the treadmill control may be
necessary.
