Instrument Cooling

The Agilent 8163A/B Lightwave Multimeter System and the
Agilent 8164A/B Lightwave Measurement System have a cooling fan
mounted internally.
The Agilent 8166A/B Lightwave Multichannel System has cooling fans
mounted internally.
Mount or position your instrument upright and horizontally, as shown in
Figure 184 , Figure 185 , or Figure 186 so that air can circulate through it
freely.
Operating Position
When operating the Agilent 8163A/B, Agilent 8164A/B, or Agilent
8166A/B choose a location that provides at least 75 mm (3 inches) of
clearance at the rear, and at least 25 mm (1 inch) of clearance at each side.
Failure to provide adequate air clearance may result in excessive internal
temperature, reducing instrument reliability. The instrument should not be
operated when mounted on its rear or side panels.
