1.1.9    Disturbance by Sound Waves 
 
Sound waves (vibrations of air) adversely affect the Model S-4800 regardless of their frequency 
and may cause image trouble.    To prevent this, confirm before installation that equipment which 
may cause a sonic disturbance is not located in the vicinity of the S-4800.    If such equipment 
exists, then check for noise level.   
In general, as the frequency of noise increases, the sound pressure level decreases, and the 
frequency of noise varies depending on the cause of noise.    It is therefore necessary to carry 
out noise frequency analysis at the installation location of the S-4800 SEM to check the degree 
of noise (effective factor) in each case.
