Certification, continued
FCC Part 15, Class “A” Limits: Supporting test records by Amador Corp. (now
TUV Product Services), certified compliance by Hach Company.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense. The following techniques of reducing the interference problems are
applied easily.Externes Netzteil vom Gerät trennen, um sicherzugehen, dass die
Störung nicht durch das Messgerät verursacht wird.
1. Disconnect the external power supply or remove the batteries from the 2100P
Portable Turbidimeter to determine whether it is the source of the interference.
2. Move the 2100P Portable Turbidimeter and its power supply away from the
device receiving the interference.
3. Move the device receiving the interference to a different location.
4. Try combinations of the above.
