2.3 Storage Precautions<br />
If the instrument is to be stored for a long period of<br />
time after delivery, observe the following points.<br />
The instrument should be stored in its original<br />
packing condition in the storage location.<br />
Select a storage location that fulfils the following<br />
conditions:<br />
• A place where it will not be exposed to rain or<br />
water<br />
• A place subject to minimal vibrations or shocks<br />
• Temperature and humidity levels should be as<br />
follows:<br />
Temperature: -30 to 70°C<br />
Humidity: 5 to 80% RH (no condensation)<br />
The preferred ambient temperature and<br />
humidity levels are 25°C and approximately<br />
65% RH.<br />
If the <strong>AXF</strong> magnetic flowmeter is transferred to the<br />
installation site and stored without being installed,<br />
its performance may be impaired due to the infiltration<br />
of rainwater and so forth. Be sure to install and<br />
wire the <strong>AXF</strong> magnetic flowmeter as soon as<br />
possible after transferring it to the installation<br />
location.<br />
2. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS<br />
Explosion protected type:<br />
Explosion protect types can be installed in hazardous<br />
areas according to the types of gases for which<br />
they are certified. See the description in Chapter 8<br />
“EXPLOSION PROTECTED TYPE INSTRU-<br />
MENT” and “INSTALLATION AND OPERATING<br />
PRECAUTIONS FOR TIIS FLAMEPROOF<br />
EQUIPMENT” in this user's manual.<br />
2.4 Installation Location<br />
Precautions<br />
Select the installation location with consideration to the<br />
following items to ensure long-term stable operation of<br />
the instrument.<br />
Ambient Temperature:<br />
Avoid installing the instrument in locations with<br />
constantly fluctuating temperatures. If the location is<br />
subject to radiant heat from the plant, provide heat<br />
insulation or improve ventilation.<br />
Atmospheric Condition:<br />
Avoid installing the instrument in a corrosive<br />
atmosphere. In situations where this is unavoidable,<br />
consider ways to improve ventilation and to prevent<br />
rainwater from entering and being retained in the<br />
conduit pipes.<br />
Vibrations or Shocks:<br />
Avoid installing the instrument in a place subject to<br />
shocks or vibrations.<br />
