1
Accuracyspecifications apply within the recommended operating temperature range. Accuracy limits are
increasedby a factor of the temperature coefficient outside this range.
2
Short-termaccuracy includes nonlinearity and noise uncertainties. It does not include drift or calibration
uncertainties.
3
Thetemperature range may be limited by the sensor.
4
Temperatureaccuracy is for the 1504 only. It does not include probe uncertainty or probe characteriza-
tionerrors .A ccuracies are typical with 10 k

3.2 Environmental Conditions
Although the instrumenthas been designed for optimum durability and trou-
ble-freeoperation, it must be handled with care. The instrument should not be
operated inan excessively dusty or dirty environment. Maintenance and clean-
ing recommendationscan be found in the Maintenance Section of this manual.
The instrument operates safely under thefollowing conditions:
Operating temperature range: Absolute 0–55°C (32–131°F); [full accu-
racy 16–30°C (61–86°F)]
Ambient relative humidity: maximum 80% for temperature < 31°C, de-
creasing linearly to 50% at 40°C
Pressure: 75kPa–106kPa
Mains voltage within ±10% of nominal
Vibrations should be minimized
Altitude less than 2,000 meters
Indoor use only
