Unpacking 
To unpack your spectrometer system: 
1  After receiving the Agilent Cary 630 FTIR delivery, do not 
immediately open the shipping container. Instead, place the 
shipping case in a room-temperature environment and allow 
several hours for the contents of the container to reach the room 
ambient temperature. This is to avoid unnecessary condensation 
on the components prior to the initial setup and installation 
process. 
 
Your Cary 630 FTIR has been packed to ensure that it arrives at 
your facility ready to go to work. Custom foam-in-place inserts 
protect the instrument from damage during travel. Whenever your 
instrument is shipped via common carrier, it needs to be re-
packed in the original shipping container. Using the original 
shipping container, your Cary 630 can be removed and re-packed 
in its container in a matter of seconds, while maintaining 
instrument security. Shipping the Cary 630 FTIR in packaging 
other than the original shipping container will void the warranty.
