Environment

Your spectrophotometer will operate within specifications at ambient
temperatures of 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F).
If you use the instrument at environmental temperatures higher than 50

the rear of the instrument may get hot.
The spectrophotometer can be shipped or stored where the ambient
temperature is between - 40 and 70°C (- 4 and 158°F).
Do not store, ship or use your instrument under conditions where temperature
WA R N I N G
fluctuations could cause condensation within the instrument. Condensation will
damage the electronics. If your instrument was shipped in cold weather, leave it in
its box and allow it to warm up slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.
You can operate your spectrophotometer in environments with relative
humidity up to 95 % (non- condensing) provided the temperature is
between 25 and 40°C (77 to 104°F).
Avoid air circulation of varying temperatures (like from refrigerators or air
conditioners) and exposure to direct sun light to ensure the instrument
operates within performance specifications.
Your spectrophotometer can be stored at altitudes up to 4,600 m
(14,950 ft.) and operated at altitudes up to 2,000 m (6,500 ft.).
