Installing the Instrument

Installation Conditions
IM 735302-01E
The instrument has a built-in reference light source for wavelength calibration, and
infrared light is always being output from the optical output connector. Never look
into the optical output connector. Infrared light entering the eyes can cause severe
injury and loss of vision.
• Do Not Apply Shock to the Instrument
non-horizontal orientation, and do not drop the instrument from a height of 2 cm
or more. This can adversely affect the accuracy of the internal monochromator
and inhibit performance. Take great care when transporting the instrument, and
use packaging with a shock absorbing capacity that is greater than or equal to
the packaging used upon shipment from the factory.
Never use inferior packaging materials that are unable to sufficiently absorb
vibrations and shocks occurring during transport. This can adversely affect the
accuracy of the internal monochromator and inhibit performance.
• When unpacking
When the instrument is packaged in a box and moved, prevent condensation by
allowing sufficient time for the instrument to acclimatize before removing it from
the box.
Install the instrument so that the following conditions are met.
Flat Horizontal Location
Place the instrument in a stable location that is flat in all directions. If the instrument is
used in an unstable or angled surface, the accuracy of the internal monochromator can
be compromised.
Location without Vibration
Do not install the instrument in a location subject to vibration. Use in a location that
experiences large vibrations can lead to instability of operation, measurement stopping
before completion, or notable decreases in accuracy of the wavelength and level axes.
Well Ventilated Location
Ventilation holes are present at the sides and rear of the instrument. To keep the
internal temperature from rising, always maintain a gap of 200 mm or more between the
ventilation holes and the installation surfaces.
