Caution:
Ensure that the workplace area is free of oil
and chemical fumes. Vibrations, direct sun-
light and strong temperature fluctuations in-
terfere with measurements as well as micro-
photography and image documentation.
The basic prerequisite is a stable instrument ta-
ble of optimum height (70–80 cm). Combined
with an ergonomically correct, adjustable chair,
these are the basic requirements for fatigue-
free microscopy.
Allowable ambient conditions
Temperature 10–36 °C
Relative humidity max. 80% up to 30°C
Macroscopes in warm and warm-damp climatic
zones require special care in order to prevent
the build up of fungus.
For additional instructions, see the chapter enti-
tled “Care of the Comparison Macroscope”
page 48.
Caution:
Electrical components must be assembled at
least 10 cm from the wall and away from
flammable substances.
