4.1.6 Device layout and space requirements
The emission spectrometer is a compact device designed for table-top operation. The re-
quired space depends on all the components that make up the measuring station.
Components of the measuring station:
¡ Sampler
¡ Recirculating chiller
¡ Waste bottle (under the workbench)
¡ The PC and printer may be placed on a separate side table.
The workbench must meet the following requirements:
¡ The minimum dimensions of the workbench for the device and sampler are
1800 mm x 750 mm
. Additionally, a clearance of 300 mm must be maintained be-
tween the rear of the device and the adjacent wall.
¡ The height can be chosen according to ergonomic aspects.
¡ The device must be freely accessible from all sides.
¡ The workbench must be capable of bearing a load of at least 200 kg.
¡ The workbench surface must be wipe, scrape and corrosion resistant and must not
absorb moisture.

For unimpeded cooling air circulation and effective cooling, the side housing surfaces
water-air cooler require a minimum distance of 60 cm
from adjacent objects. Due to the
dissipated heat and possible noise generated, the water-air cooler should be placed out-
side the laboratory. Extension of the cooling water hoses is permitted if the minimum
pressure and flow volume are maintained.
