1994 standards. 1.7 Packaging for Shipment If the product must be shipped to a different location or returned to Mensor for any reason through a common carrier it must be packaged properly to minimize the risk of damage. The recommended method of packing is to place the instrument in a container, surrounded on all sides with at least four inches of shock attenuation material such as styrofoam peanuts.
WARNING: POSSIBLE INJURY! The tubing, valves, and other apparatus attached to the gauge must be adequate for the maximum pressure which will be applied, otherwise physical injury to the operator or bystanders is possible. Mensor Model 9415 Multi-Channel Pressure Test System...

AC power cord from mains when servicing inside enclosures. Due to the internal pressures and voltages used within the 9415 system, only qualified and properly trained personnel should service this system. The emergency shutdown electrical system is limited in capacity to approximately 6 amps of power.
This supply should be approximately 110 % of the maximum remote transducer range, but not exceed the max operating pressure of the system. Refer to the “General Specifications and Ratings:” section for more information on the different pressure configurations. Mensor Model 9415 Multi-Channel Pressure Test System...
