• Temperature range: 18°C to 29°C
• Maximum relative humidity in the permissible temperature range:
20% to 90% RH (non-condensing)
• Voltage fluctuations in the mains supply not greater than ±10% of the
rated voltage
• Transient overvoltages as they usually occur in the mains supply
• Low as possible an influence on the analyzer by steam, solvents and
acid fumes
• Protect against direct exposure to sunlight.
Note: The recommended storage temperature for the analyzer is
between -29°C and 50°C. The Non-operating storage and
