This bath is not designed to be portable. Therefore, moving the bath once it has
been installed should be kept to a minimum.
WARNING: Never move a bath that is full of fluid. This action could be
extremely dangerous and could result in personal injury to the person
moving the bath.
The bath is equipped with casters and should be rolled. It is not designed to be
lifted. When uncrating the bath, remove all of the accessories from the packing
foam around the bath. Remove the pre-formed foam. Gently ease the bath from
the crate using the casters to roll the bath. If it is required to lift the bath
slightly to release it from the crate, two people should carefully slide their
hands under the bath and gently lift the bath only enough to clear the packing
foam and roll the bath from the crate. The area containing the compressors will
be heavier than the rest of the bath.
If it is required to move the bath after installation, empty the bath of fluid.
DONOT move a bath filled with fluid. The back of the bath, which is where
the compressors are located, is heavier than the front. To safely move the bath,
two people are required. Do not attempt to carry the bath, it is tall and ex-
tremely heavy. Personal injury or damage to the bath may occur.

appropriate environment. The location should be free of drafts, extreme temper-
atures and temperature changes, dirt, etc. The surface where the bath is placed
must be level.
If used at higher temperatures where fluid vaporization is significant, a fume
hood should be used.

Before initial use, after transport, and any time the instrument has not been en-
ergized for more than 10 days, the bath will need to be energized for a
"dry-out" period of 1-2 hours before it can be assumed to meet all of the safety
requirements of the IEC 1010-1.
