Safety Information
To avoid electrical shock, always:
1. Use a properly grounded electrical outlet of correct voltage and current handling
capability.
2. Ensure that the equipment is connected to electrical service according to local
national electrical codes. Failure to properly connect may create a fire or shock
hazard.
3. For continued protection against possible hazard, replace fuses with same type
and rating of fuse.
4. Disconnect from the power supply before maintenance or servicing.
To avoid personal injury:
1. Do not use in the presence of flammable or combustible materials; fire or
explosion may result. This device contains components which may ignite such
material.
2. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.

Before connecting the calorimeter to an electrical outlet, the user must be certain that
the electrical outlet has an earth ground connection and that the line, load and other
characteristics of the installation do not exceed the following limits:
Voltage: Fluctuations in the line voltage should not exceed 10% of the rated nominal
voltage shown on the data plate.
Frequency: Calorimeters can be operated from either a 50 or 60 Hertz power supply
without affecting their operation or calibration.
Current: The total current drawn should not exceed the rating shown on the data plate
on the calorimeter by more than 10 percent.
