Placement
For best results, choose a location to setup the Product
where room temperature changes are minimum. To safely
remove heat, put the Product in a position with a minimum
of 45 cm of free air space around it.
Fluke Calibration recommends that you do a test for axial
uniformity and adjust if necessary after the Product is
installed. Temperature uniformity of the Product could be
affected by the environment where the Product operates or
by equipment or material placed inside or at the ends of
the central tube. Refer to the Calibration section of this
manual.
Dry-Out Period
Before initial use, after transport, or the Product has not
been energized for more than 10 days, turn on the Product
for a minimum of 2 hours.
If the Product is wet or was in a wet environment, remove
moisture before you turn on the Product.
