Risk of instrument damage due to obstructed fans
If the instrument is operated in dusty areas, the fans may become obstructed by dust
or other particles in the process of time. Make sure to check and, if necessary, clean
the fans regularly to ensure they operate properly at all times. If the instrument is run
with obstructed fans for a longer period, it may become overheated which may cause
damage.

13.2 Storing and Packing

The storage temperature range of the instrument is given in the data sheet. If the
instrument is to be stored for a longer period of time, it must be protected against dust.
Repack the instrument as it was originally packed when transporting or shipping. The
two protective foam plastic parts prevent the control elements and connectors from
being damaged. The antistatic packing foil avoids any undesired electrostatic charging
to occur.
If you do not use the original packaging, use a sturdy cardboard box of suitable size
and provide for sufficient padding to prevent the instrument from slipping inside the
package. Wrap antistatic packing foil around the instrument to protect it from electro-
static charging.
