Chapter 2:

Prerequisites

Before you install the filtered enclosure, you need to prepare your site for
installation. You must be certain that the area is level and of solid construction. In
addition, a dedicated source of electrical power should be located near the
installation site to power the filtered enclosure, balance and other apparatus.
Additionally, the enclosure should be strategically placed in the lab to provide
efficient workflow.

Carefully read this chapter to learn the requirements for your installation site:

The support, vibration and movement requirements.

The temperature variation requirements.

The humidity and static electricity requirements.

The location and air current requirements.

The exhaust and blower requirements.

The electrical power requirements.

The space requirements.

Refer to Appendix B: Dimensions for complete enclosure dimensions.

Refer to Appendix C: Specifications for complete filtered enclosure electrical and
environmental conditions, specifications and requirements.

Support, Vibration and Movement Requirements

At a minimum, the supporting structure usually consists of a base cabinet and work
surface.

The ability for analytical balances to accommodate vibration varies with type and
brand. More advanced balances have improved tolerance, however in the
preparation of a balance enclosure site, please consider the following:

Avoid tubular stands or mobile benches that have the potential of moving
when touched.

Work surfaces should be of a thick rigid material that remains stable when
buttons are pressed.
