- The VRTEX® system requires a space of 8’ L x 8’ D x 8’ H (2.4 m x 2.4 m x 2.4 m).
- When operating multiple units in one location, alternate between standard and alternate frequency systems (unique part numbers are identified).
- The VRTEX® system is not designed for operation in harsh environments. Recommendations are listed in the instruction manual.
- Avoid magnetic fields, conductive and high frequency objects and processes.
- An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) may be required for protection of the system from power irregularities and/or disruptions
