Preparations for operation
Preparation
The DAPcheck Plus should be carefully removed form its packing case and inspected. If
any damage to the components is found, the supplier or manufacturer should be
contacted. Damaged components must not be used.
Power-on test
Note. Prior to use, all components of the measuring system should have been adapted to
room temperature.
The measuring system includes an automatic power-on test during which the function of
the ionization chamber and all electronic systems are checked.
Stabilization time
The ionization chamber is a highly sensitive detector which must stabilize following
application of the ionization potential in order to meet the specified performance (see page
11).
The period of time required for this process is known as the stabilization time.
The measuring system is however operational during this stabilization time.
The required stabilization time for the ion chamber is 3 minutes..
