Electrical Shock and Fire Hazards
To prevent reduced safety protection or unwanted fusing, ALWAYS ensure
that the code on the fuse cap matches the information printed next to the
fuse holders.
Spills
Any spills in the sample compartment should be wiped up immediately. Any liquid
spilled into the cuvette positions drains out through the drain tube located on the
bottom of the module. It is recommended that an additional length of PTFE tubing
is slid over the 6 mm OD drain tubing and inserted into a collection vessel to avoid
liquid spilling onto the bench.
The drain outlet tubing and vessel should be checked regularly for kinks in the
tubing, blockages, or a full vessel.
The exterior surfaces of the instrument should be kept clean. All cleaning should be
done with a soft cloth. If necessary, this cloth can be dampened with water or a
mild detergent. Do not use organic solvents or abrasive cleaning agents.
The RESPONSIBLE BODY shall ensure that:
a) appropriate decontamination is carried out if hazardous material is spilled onto
or into the equipment;
b) no decontamination or cleaning agents are used which could cause a HAZARD
as a result of a reaction with parts of the equipment or with material contained in it;
c) the manufacturer or his agent is consulted if there is any doubt about the
compatibility of decontamination or cleaning agents with parts of the equipment or
with material contained in it.
