Observe all terminal ratings. Do not apply a voltage to any input that
exceeds the maximum rating of that input. Refer to the markings next to
the BNC terminals for maximum allowed values.
Use only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or
explosive atmospheres.
Use indoors only.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Do not block the cooling vents. Leave a minimum six-inch (15 cm) gap
between the instrument and the nearest object. Keep the underside clear
of papers and other objects.
Do not remove the covers or inside parts. Refer all maintenance to
qualified service personnel.
Do not operate with suspected failures. Do not use the product if any part
is damaged. Obviously incorrect measurement behaviors (such as failure to
calibrate) might indicate impairment due to hazardous live electrical
quantities. Cease operation immediately and sequester the instrument
from inadvertent use.
Operating Environment
Temperature: 0° C to 40° C
Humidity: Maximum relative humidity 80% (non-condensing) for
temperatures up to 30° C decreasing linearly to 50 % relative humidity at
40° C.
Altitude: Up to 10,000 ft (3,048 m) at or below 30° C.
Cooling
The WaveStation relies on forced air cooling with internal fans and vents.
Take care to avoid restricting the airflow to any part of the instrument.
Around the sides and rear, leave a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between
the instrument and the nearest object. At the bottom, the feet (up or
down) provide adequate clearance.
CAUTION. Do not block vents. Always keep the area beneath the
instrument clear of paper and other items.
