Instruction Manual StackGuard 2 System Additional possibilities This Instruction Manual describes only those options that are required for normal operation of the installation. Additional parameters enable you to adapt the StackGuard optimally to your particular measuring duty. For example, you can alter the behavior of the reading outputs or test the installation in the manual mode.
Instruction Manual StackGuard 2 System 5 Servicing Services are provided under the warranty only if the installation has been properly serviced as instructed. Work done is recorded in the service log. Whenever the protective covers marked with the symbol are removed, Class 3R laser radiation can be emitted.
