1.6.1 Ambient Laboratory Humidity
Distek recommends that the laboratory humidity control system fans be kept on at all times, if
possible.
Maximum:
The Model 2500 Series may add to the humidity of the laboratory during operation. Any vessels
filled and left uncovered can raise humidity levels. Water vapor and/or hydrogen chloride vapor
from dissolution media can cause serious effects when condensed on electrical components and
contacts. The lab’s environmental controls should maintain the humidity level below the dew
point (70%) to minimize the risk of condensation.
Minimum:
The Model 2500 Series utilizes solid-state semiconductor devices. It is important that the
humidity level be kept at or above 25% relative humidity, to minimize the risk of damage to
control circuits caused by static discharge.
