Installation Requirements
To ensure operation safety, observe the following conditions:
(1) Do not operate the instrument under voltage fluctuations exceeding 10% of the
recommended line voltage. Otherwise, the instrument may not function properly.
(2) Frequency or spike noise in the power supply should be minimal.
(3) Ensure that the instrument is grounded.
(4) Operate the instrument in a temperature range of 15 to 30 °C.
Do not connect the instrument to the power source if any condensation is present.
Otherwise, it may become damaged or an electrical shock may be received. Let the
instrument dry naturally before connecting to the power source, especially when
unpacking or relocating.
(5) Operate the instrument in humidity below 85% (RH). JASCO recommends operating the
instrument in humidity below 60% to avoid the deterioration of the optical components
due to the condensation caused by high humidity.
(6) Operate the instrument in an atmospheric pressure range of 750 to 1060 hPa.
(7) Avoid strong magnetic fields and sources of high frequency. The instrument may not
function properly when near a strong magnetic field or high frequency source.
(8) Avoid vibration from vacuum pumps, electric motors, processing equipment and
machine tools.
(9) Avoid dust and corrosive gas. Do not install the instrument where it may be exposed to
dust, especially in locations exposed to outside air or ventilation outlets that discharge
dust particles.
(10) Do not install the instrument in a location where it may be exposed to direct sunlight.
(11) Install the instrument in a horizontal and stable position. (This includes a table or desk
upon which the instrument is installed.)
(12) Ensure that no air conditioner blows air directly onto the instrument. This may prevent
stable measurement.
(13) Install the instrument in a location that ensures sufficient space around and beneath it for
efficient air circulation and allows easy access for maintenance.
Note: The above conditions do not guarantee optimal performance of this
instrument.
