| Environmental Conditions |
| It is recommended that MiniCAT™ is operated in a climate-controlled environment where the ambient temperature does not exceed a range of 60 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit. An operating environment where this suggested range cannot be regulated may reduce the expected life cycle of the MiniCAT™ system. Changes in temperature may cause the system to require additional calibration. |
| Operating Requirements |
50 to 95 degrees Fahrenheit
(10 to 40 degrees Celsius)
45% to 75% humidity |
| Transportation and Storage Requirements |
32 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit
(0 to 40 degrees Celsius)
30% to 80% humidity |
| Heat Dissipation |
Approx. 500W / 1700 BTU/hr |
| Caution: Allow system temperature to adapt to room temperature before powering up MiniCAT™ scanner hardware or workstation/server. |
| Installation / Relocation |
MiniCAT™ cannot be installed or relocated by the user. Proper and safe setup requires
specialized training and must be performed by a Xoran Customer Service Engineer. Call Xoran 1-800-70-XORAN (800-709-6726) for assistance. |
