How much vibration is a problem?

Hi everyone

I'm new to the list and new to cytometry.

We have a Cytomation MoFlo and are considering moving it to another
lab (larger hopefully!)

The question of vibration has come up.  Now, not being used to these
instruments, I wondered if anyone here could help.

How would I go about measuring vibration in a lab and how much is
'too much'.

Also, as a general rule of thumb, is it best siting these instruments
as low down in a building as possible, though fairly near a road, or
higher up in the building?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Richard Grenfell
