Page 8: Humidity
Humidity The relative humidity of the operating environment must be between 20 and 80%, with no condensation. Operating the LC/MS at a very low humidity may result in the accumulation and discharge of static electricity, shortening the life of electronic components. Operating the system at high humidity may create condensation and result in short circuits. - Page 9 LC/MS The LC/MS requires the following.
