up to 10 readings per second. 8t lo#er light leels it is often &est to allo# longer measurement times to

increase the accuracy.

The ILT1000 internal &oard is a sensitie electronic deice. Due to ris@ of &oard damage% only trained

personnel should attempt opening the housing on the ILT1000. 'pening the ILT1000 &y nonILT personnel

oids all #arranties and may adersely affect the cali&ration of the meter.

Operating Temperature> 0 to +*" ("ali&rated Irradiance 00"! ILT meters and sensors hae a

recommended operating range of 0 to 0" to &est assure the accuracy of the cali&rated

measurements.9umidit;> 0J* noncondensing.

E$/> 5se &asic ESD precautions and practices #hen handling the deice. It is adisa&le to discharge

any static &uildup &y touching a grounded conductie surface &efore ma@ing contact #ith deices or

its connectors.

Cleaning> 4o chemicals or liCuid solution should &e used to clean the ILT1000 housing. The ILT1000 housing ismade of dura&le anodi The ILT1000 housing is not rated for su&mersion.
