  • Page 15: Operation

    Accuracy The accuracy of the ETS-Lindgren Model HI-1801 Microwave Survey Meter is within ± 1 db (+25%, -20%) when used according to these instructions: Always use a clean spacer cover. Accuracy will be affected by wear of the cover and by dirt and metallic particles which may become imbedded in the EPS (expanded polystyrene) foam.
  • Page 16 The normal operating temperature range is between 60º and 90º F (15º and 32º C). If used outside this range, an additional error will be introduced. This error can be approximated as -0.1% per Fahrenheit degree. The negative temperature coefficient means that the instrument reads high at lower temperatures and low at higher temperatures.
  • Page 17: Preparing The Oven

    Preparing the Oven Do not attempt to operate a microwave oven with:  Any object caught in the door.  A door that does not close properly  A damaged door, hinge, latch or sealing surface. Make sure that the oven is clean and that there is no buildup of dirt around the door seal area.
