2.1 Installation Site and Environmental Conditions
The MT8801C Radio Communication Analyzer operates normally at temperatures
from 0° to 50°C. However, for the best performance, the following locations should
be avoided.
• Where there is severe vibration
• Where the humidity is high
• Where the equipment will be exposed to direct sunlight
• Where the equipment will be exposed to active gases
To insure long-term trouble-free operation, the equipment should be used at room
temperature and in a location where the power supply voltage does not fluctuate
greatly.
CAUTION
• Prevention of failure due to condensation
If the MT8801C is used at normal temperatures after it has
been used or stored for a long time at low temperature,
there is a risk of short-circuiting caused by condensation.
To prevent this risk, do not turn the power on until the
MT8801C has been allowed to dry out sufficiently.
Fan clearance:
To suppress any internal temperature increase, the MT8801C has a fan on the rear
panel as shown in the diagram below. Leave a gap of at least 10 cm between the rear
panel and the wall, nearby equipment or obstructions so that fan ventilation is not
blocked.
