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: XPert Dimensions for complete enclosure dimensions.

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