Installation
Overview
This section provides detailed installation instructions for the Clinitek Advantus
analyzer. You must follow the installation steps correctly to ensure proper
installation, operation, and service.
Place the analyzer where it will not be subjected to extreme temperature
variations. Avoid proximity to open windows, direct sunlight, ovens, hot plates,
open burners, radiators, and dry ice baths.
Do not place it on the same bench as a source of vibration, such as a
centrifuge.
The Clinitek Advantus analyzer should not be used in an explosive
atmosphere.
The bench space should be large enough to allow free air circulation around
the analyzer (7.6 cm/3 inches on all sides).
