Storage, Transport | Leica DM IRB specification

Storage	Packaging and
	transport

Protect your microscope from dust by putting on the cover after each work session.

The microscope must be kept in a cupboard in which the temperature is ≥ 5°C above room temperature. The cupboard must have ven- tilation holes which are plugged with cotton wool, for example, to keep dust out. If this type of storage is not possible, the microscope is kept in a closed container with drying agent (e. g. silicone balls).

The original packaging should be used if the microscope has to be dispatched or trans- ported. Also, the delivery note with full details should be enclosed.
