Conditions of Use of Permalog

System

1. Deployment of Permalog

units should be carried out in accordance with

Palmer Environmental document PDI(E) Issue 1. Mishandling the logger

could result in damage to the antenna (if incorrectly used to lower or raise

the logger) or the sensor (connecting the logger to, or removing it from, the

fitting). Such damage is not covered by Palmer Environmental’s 3-year

warranty and customers are warned that damage to the sensor in

particular is unlikely to be economic to repair.

2. During handling and transportation of Permalog

units from place to place,

care must be taken not to bring the communications window into the

magnetic field of a medium or strong strength magnet. Continuous

exposure to a magnetic field can result in variation in the Permalog

‘s

internal clock, which will lead to an increased possibility of false alarms.

Particular care must be taken to avoid packing Permalog

units “head to

tail”. Remedial work by Palmer Environmental required to correct loggers

that have been affected in this way is not covered by warranty and will be

charged.

3. Due to the strength of the magnet used with Permalog

, large quantities of

Permalog

units should not be carried by staff with heart pacemakers.

4. The magnet keeper fitted to Permalog loggers should be left attached to

the magnet until the unit is ready to be placed in its logging position. If the

unit is to be moved for any reason the keeper should be refitted to the

magnet. All Permalog units should be transported with the keeper

attached to the magnet.
