[Warning]Caution

In order to ensure that Meteo-40 data loggers work properly, some requirements should be meet.

The data logger can be affected by extreme temperature and humidity conditions. Meteo-40 is designed to operate properly at temperatures between -40 °C and +65 °C in non-condensing environments. The display is readable between -20 °C and +70 °C.

On site the data logger has to be installed in a robust and weatherproof cabinet (see also at www.ammonit.com). The cabinet protects Meteo-40 against weather and condensation damage, theft and vandalism. If humidity tolerance is exceeded and moisture penetrates, the electronics of Meteo-40 can be damaged. Users are responsible for effective humidity control.

Handle Meteo-40 with care, do not drop the device, and avoid mechanical shocks and vibrations to prevent the electronics from being damaged. Do not try to open or break the Meteo-40 housing or any of the slots. Avoid permanent pressure on the data logger.

To ensure that Meteo-40 operates properly, install only equipment, e.g., sensors, adapters and cables, which is undamaged and approved by Ammonit. Contact Ammonit, if any questions occur.
