USING THE BALOMETER JR. SAFELY

When using the Balometer Jr. to check air flow at ceiling diffusers, make
certain that you can safely raise and hold the unit while making
measurements especially when working on a ladder.
Observe all necessary precautions so that the unit does not become
caught in moving machinery.
The Balometer Jr. is not designed for gas mixtures other than air. Use
with corrosive or other dangerous or explosive gas mixtures is not
recommended, and is at the user's risk.
Due to its size and shape, care should be taken when carrying the
assembled instrument from place to place so that it does not accidentally
bump into people or objects.
Special nylon material is used to manufacture the Balometer Jr. hoods
because of its impermeability and toughness. However, precautions
should be used so that it is not ripped by accidental contact with sharp
objects.
When the instrument is stored or otherwise not being used to take
readings, be certain to protect the meter movement by switching the
range selector to the OFF position.
The air flow sensing manifold can be damaged if subjected to excessive
stress. It is not repairable. Any air flow other than through the calibrated
sensing holes (even hairline cracks) will affect instrument accuracy.
Special manifold mounting springs are designed to cushion the assembly
and allow for some deformation of the base without affecting accuracy.
These springs should not be removed or altered in any way.
