(OP)
it's been hot and humid out. Check your dehumidification/cooling systems.

Failure to do so will lead to failure of things that are way more expensive than the dehumidification/cooling system repairs.

If you don't know, have a pro look it over.

RE: Humidity

Also make sure your chiller setpoint is above the dew point!

One of out operators thought the CO2 laser performed better with the chiller set to 10C. Fine and dandy until the summer monsoon humidity came and the laser quit working. The HV RF supply and laser head had puddles of water around them, not to mention who knows how much water was inside their enclosures.

After that I had all the setpoints either mechanically or electronically locked out.
