 High-voltage is accessible within this instrument.
Unplug the power source before removing the cover.
 The Model 3077 and 3077A Neutralizers contain
radioactive material that is subject to the regulations
of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission as well
as local regulations.
 The Model 3088 Advanced Aerosol Neutralizer
contains an x-ray source. During normal operation,
you will not be exposed to x-ray radiation. Do not
make any changes (such as detaching the x-ray
source from the neutralizer tube) to the neutralizer.
Where required, obey local regulations to operate an
x-ray device before turning the Model 3088 on.
 The classifier can weigh up to 58 lb (26 kg) with the
DMA installed. Protect your back when lifting.
Do not grip the DMA when lifting.
 A Condensation Particle Counter (CPC) may be
combined with the classifier as particle detector.
CPCs are Class 1 laser-based instruments. You will
not be exposed to laser radiation during normal
operation of the CPC. However, you must not
remove any parts from the CPC unless the manual
instructs you to do so. Do not remove any part of
the instrument housing while the instrument is
powered on.
