Preparation for Shipment or Storage
The following section provides the special instruction needed to prepare the instru-
ment for shipment or storage.
Storage
Requirements
The Calorimeter should be stored in a cool, dry area. Ambient temperature of the
storage area must be within °10 to 50°C (50° to 122°F). If storage period is expected
to exceed 30 days, drain coolant per the following paragraph. Package the unit per
the Packaging section to keep it free of dust and dirt, and to protect it against rough
handling.
Draining the
Coolant
Prior to storing or shipping the Calorimeter, drain the coolant according to the fol-
lowing procedure:
WARNING
Coolant containing ethylene glycol is a potential health hazard. Avoid ingestion, inhaling of
vapors and eye and skin contact.
1. Remove four screws securing the top cover to the instrument case, if
used. Refer to figure 18.
2. Place the Calorimeter unit on a flat surface with the rear panel ex-
tending out over the edge.
3. Place a suitable container below the drain tube. With the container in
place, remove the reservoir filler cap and turn the hex on the drain
valve counterclockwise to open the drain. Allow all of the coolant to
drain from the Calorimeter.
