Handling precautions
Since the heating process inside the box is not
stopped instantly after the box has left the oven, we
strongly advise you to take the following
precautions:
•
Always wear heat protective gloves when
handling the box and the probes after a run
because the box will be hot after a measurement.
•
Open the box as soon as possible after the test in
the oven.
•
Take the logger and bracket / heat absorber out of
the box so that they can cool down.
Note
•
The heat absorber needs quite a long time to cool
down once it gets hot.
•
When storing the box, do not lock the cover
with the latches. This will extend the life span
and preserve the elasticity of the rubber
gasket!

Precautions - Batteries in carry-on baggage
(aircraft cabin)
The battery employed in our CurveX 4 is a standard
set of 2 AA batteries. The batteries employed in the
CurveX 4 may fall under restrictions in airline carry
on policies. Commonly dry batteries like the AA,
AAA,C and D batteries will not be subject to these
restrictions.
Based on US DoT regulations (49 CFR, Sec. 175.10),
the CurveX 4 battery satisfies all demands, most
notably:
-
The battery is a dry battery
-
The battery is rated below 100 Watt-hours per
battery
-
The battery is protected from damage and short
circuit
Based on the known airline regulations the batteries
might need to be removed from the instrument
during transport. Allowing the logger to be caried in
carry-on and check-in luggage, the batteries might
be only carry-on.
