Definitions

Warranted specifications describe the performance of a model under stated operating conditions and are covered by the model warranty.

Characteristics describe values that are relevant to the use of the model under stated operating conditions but are not covered by the model warranty.

Typical specifications describe the performance met by a majority of models.
Nominal specifications describe an attribute that is based on design, conformance testing, or supplemental testing.
Measured specifications describe the measured performance of a representative model.

Specifications are Typical unless otherwise noted.

Note Ambient temperature variations faster than 1 °C/min may disrupt the BTS-16110 thermal regulation.

Note Forced airflow over the BTS-16110 reduces its ability to thermoregulate at low temperatures and low input voltages.

Note Warranted specifications are valid from 15 °C to 40 °C. The device can operate at the non warranted specifications from 40 °C to 50 °C.

Note Prolonged operation at temperatures above 40 °C might cause device accuracy to shift outside of warranted specifications and require recalibration to restore accuracy specifications. Take all precautions to maintain ambient air temperatures within guaranteed accuracy specifications.
