M300EU GETTING STARTED
(Addendum to M300EU Manual - P/N 04145)
3.4. INITIAL OPERATION OF THE M300EU
NOTE
The analyzer’s cover must be installed and securely fastened to ensure that the convection oven portion
of the internal layout is capable of properly creating and controlling temperatures of the analyzer’s
optical bench.
3.4.1. STARTUP AND WARM UP OF THE M300EU
The process for starting and warming up the M300EU is identical to that described in Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 of
the M300E/EM Operators Manual (P/N 04288) except:
• It is best to alloy the M300EU to operate uninterrupted for at least 2 hours to allow the temperature of all
areas of the convection oven area to equalize.
3.4.2. WARNING MESSAGES
The information found in Section 3.2.3 of the M300E/EM Operators Manual (P/N 04288) is applicable to the
M300EU with the following exception(s)
