3. Installation
3.1 Environmental Considerations
There are several factors that may affect the performance of your Statim.
Please review these factors, and select a suitable location in which to install the unit.
• Temperature and Humidity
Avoid installing your Statim in direct sunlight or close to a heat source (e.g. vents or
radiators). The recommended operating temperatures are 15-25˚C with humidity of 25-70%.
• Spacing
The vents and openings on the Statim should remain uncovered and unobstructed. Leave a
minimum of 50 mm between the top, sides and back of the unit and any wall or partition.
• Venting
The Statim should be operated in a clean, dust free environment.
• Work Surface
The Statim should be placed on a flat, level, water-resistant surface.
Never install and operate the unit on a sloped surface.
• Electromagnetic Environment
The Statim has been tested and meets applicable standards for electromagnetic emissions.
While the unit does not emit any radiation, it may itself be affected by other equipment which
does. We recommend that the unit be kept away from potential sources of interference.
• Electrical Requirements
Use properly grounded and fused power sources with the same voltage rating as indicated
on the label at the back of your Statim. Avoid multiple outlet receptacles. If using a surge
suppressor power bar, plug in one Statim only.
3.2 Unit Placement
When placing the unit on a counter top, ensure the following:
• The level indicator bubble

on the front panel should be
balanced in the front right quadrant of the target. This will
ensure that the unit drains properly. Adjusting the three
leveler feet will help you move the bubble if necessary.
• The unit should be stable and all four feet should be securely
in contact with the counter surface.
This will prevent the unit from moving freely.
