Cautions

Review and follow these Cautions to avoid damaging the equipment.
!
The electronic circuit boards and other static-sensitive components should be stored and trans-
ported in static-shielding carriers or packages.
CAUTION
!
For electrical-shock protection, the analyzer must be operated from a grounded power source
that has a securely connected protective-ground contact.
CAUTION
If it becomes necessary to handle any of the electronic circuit boards, do not subject the boards
!
to static discharge. The ideal solution is a static-safe work area. Since such areas typically
are not available at analyzer installation sites, the use of a wrist strap connected directly to a
CAUTION
ground is recommended. If a wrist strap is not available, you should at the very least touch the
metal chassis (to ground yourself) before handling or touching the boards.
!
Take extreme care to avoid damaging the threads on the cable entry glands. Clean, defect-free
threads are essential to ensure a flameproof connection.
CAUTION
The lid weighs 8.2 kg (18 lb). Use proper lifting methods and wear protective footwear when
