Safety Practices and Hazards
8 Cary Eclipse Fluorescence Spectrophotometer User’s Guide
To ensure continued safety of the instrument after maintenance or
service procedures verify the instrument is returned to a safe state
for the user. This includes running performance checks to verify the
instruments safety systems are functioning correctly. Check the
general condition of the instrument during operation for wear or
signs of corrosion that are likely to inhibit function or safety.
Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings
elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design,
manufacture, and intended use of the instrument. Agilent
Technologies assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to
comply with these requirements.
Lamp module
The lamp is enclosed in a self-contained module. This module
contains components operating at high voltages. To avoid electric
shock, NEVER disassemble the module.
When operating, the lamp module emits high intensity visible and
ultraviolet (UV) radiation that can cause serious damage to eyes. To
avoid eye damage, never operate the lamp outside the instrument.
WARNING
Eye and Shock Hazard
High voltage Xe flashlamp operating at 1260 kPa. To avoid electric shock or
eye damage, NEVER disassemble the module or look down the hole.
La lampe Xe haut voltage fonctionne à une pression de 1260 kpa. Pour éviter
tout risque électrique et des problèmes oculaires ne jamais ouvrir le module
ou regarder à l’intérieur.
Ultraviolet radiation
Hazardous ultraviolet (UV) radiation is emitted by the xenon flash
lamp in the instrument. This radiation can cause serious damage to
eyes. Never look directly at the UV source lamp.
