Installation

WARNING

Electrical and Fire Hazards. Use only the provided power supply. Only qualified personnel should conduct the tasks described in this section of the manual.

3.1 Unpack the instrument

The DR 5000 Spectrophotometer comes packaged with the following items:

•DR 5000 Spectrophotometer

•Mains power cable

•Multi Cell Holder

•DR 5000 User Manual

•CD-ROM containing the HACH and HACH LANGE procedures

Note: If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact the manufacturer or a sales representative immediatly.

3.2 Operating environment

The following conditions are necessary to ensure correct instrument operation and accurate results:

•Place the instrument firmly on an even surface. Do not push any objects under the instrument.

•Maintain an ambient temperature of 10 to 40 ºC (50 to 104 ºF) for proper instrument operation.

•The relative humidity should be less than 80%; moisture should not condense on the instrument.

•Leave at least a 15 cm (6 in.) clearance at the top and on all sides for air circulation to avoid overheating of electrical parts.

•Do not operate or store the instrument in extremely dusty, damp or wet locations.

•Keep the surface of the instrument, the cell compartment and all accessories clean and dry at all times. Splashes or spills on and in the instrument should be cleaned up immediately (see section 7.1 on page 121).

Important Note: Protect the instrument from temperature extremes, including heaters, direct sunlight and other heat sources.
