1.3 Operating Environment / Condition
Use the AnaPrep 12 Dx system in a location that meets the following conditions:
◼The AnaPrep 12 Dx system must be placed at a minimum distance of 5-10 cm
from all sidewalls to allow for good air circulation. The space for the allocation of
the AnaPrep 12 Dx system must remain 5-10 cm from instrument to sidewalls.
◼A location where power supply is provided safely.
◼A location where the temperature ranges from 15 to 30°C and humidity ranges
from 30% to 80% RH. (non-condensing)
◼A location that is flat and stable, with no vibration.
◼A location away from direct sunlight. (Block the sunlight by closing curtains or
blinds as necessary)
◼A location which is well-ventilated and not dusty.
◼A location where the temperature does not go up and down suddenly. (Warming
a cold room suddenly or moving the AnaPrep 12 Dx system from a room with
low temperature to a warm room may cause condensation inside the device,
resulting in abnormal extraction)
◼A location where the temperature and humidity are kept within the specified
range (far from water taps, water heaters, humidifiers, air-conditioners, and
heaters)
◼A location far from objects that generate strong magnetic fields. (motors,
