Hazard of wrong results
Do not use an uncalibrated anemometer. It is recommended to adjust and cal-
ibrate the anemometer in a period of 12 months.
Hazard of wrong results
The temperature values in flow conversion formulas must be inserted as Kel-
vin.
Hazard of wrong results
The anemometer is a high-precision measurement instrument sensitive to
draft currents and air turbulences. The anemometer and the air sampler shall
not be exposed to direct sunlight during calibration.
The measurement should take place in a room free from draft currents and
turbulences, including people walking by.
It is recommended to remain calmly seated in front of the anemometer during
this procedure to avoid air turbulences.
Hazard of wrong results
A temperature sensor is integrated into the aluminum housing of the MAS-100
Regulus. Before calibration, the air sampler and the anemometer must be
brought to ambient temperature.
Hazard of wrong results
An air sampler must be re-adjusted and calibrated if the measured air flow is
out of the allowed tolerance band, or if the calibration expires.
Hazard of wrong results
The seal in the base plate of the digital anemometer ensures a tight connec-
tion to the air sampler. Check the condition of the seal occasionally.
Hazard of wrong results
Ensure that the holes of the air flow inlet of the digital anemometer on are not
clogged.
Hazard of wrong results
Put a MAS-100 Family Calibration Disk with 85 mm diameter or a Petri dish in-
side the sampling head whenever adjusting or calibrating an air sampler which
lacks the air flow sensor, or an air sampler using an Easy-Clean-Base.
Hazard of wrong results
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for misuse of the PC Software
and for entering wrong results.
It is the sole responsibility of the user to fill-in the correct values.
Hazard of cross contamination
The FDA considers the separation of penicillin production from other drug
products for human use as a GMP requirement (21 CFR 211.46(d)), therefore
MBV AG recommends taking any precaution for installing and handling the in-
strument accordingly.
Risk of warranty loss
Every anemometer is secured with an anti-tamper (warranty) seal.
Disassembling the anemometer will break the seal and render the warranty
void.
