6.1.3 Wet-Bulb Wick Check (ESL, ESX models only)
The wet-bulb wick (included) must be installed to run humidity tests. If already in place, check whether it is
wet or dry before starting. If dry, change it.
Note: Bacteria adhering to the wet-bulb wick can proliferate during tests and block water
supply. Wash hands with soap and water before handling the wick.
Procedure:
1. Remove the wet-bulb wick from its package.
2. Slide the wet-bulb wick over the wet-bulb temperature sensor. It is easier to slide the wick over the
sensor by folding it in half.
