INSTALLING CONDITIONS
The Mitutoyo Laser Scan Micrometer LSM-9506 is both a precision optical instrument and a
precision electric instrument, and it is designed for indoor use. Therefore, it must be carefully
installed and the following conditions must be taken into consideration to attain the highest
possible accuracy.
1. Vibration
Install this unit if possible in a place where it will not be subject to vibration. If this unit is
used for a long period of time in an environment where there are significant vibrations, the
precision parts in this unit may be affected, resulting in the deterioration of measuring
accuracy.
If this unit has to be used in an environment where vibration is significant, measures such as
the laying of a vibration damping rubber pad under the unit must be applied to reduce the
effect of vibration.
2. Dust
Dust and airborne particles at the installation site adversely affect optical parts including the
protective glass and electronic parts of the Measuring Unit. Place this unit in a place with as
little dust and as few airborne particles as possible.
3. Direct sunlight
If this unit is subjected to direct sunlight, the heat may deform this unit and affect the
measuring accuracy.
If this unit must be placed by a window where it will be subjected to direct sunlight, protect
the unit by shading it.
