Safety Practices and Hazards Operator’s Manual P/N 70-9033
Electrical Hazards
The dissolution apparatus contains electrical circuits, devices, and components
operating at dangerous voltages. Contact with these circuits, devices, and
components can cause death, serious injury, or painful electric shock.
Panels or covers that are retained by fasteners which require the use of a tool for
removal may be opened only by Varian-trained, Varian-qualified, or Varian-authorized
service engineers. Consult the manuals or product labels supplied with the dissolution
apparatus to determine which parts are operator-accessible.
Application of the wrong supply voltage, connection of the instrument to an incorrectly
wired supply outlet, or lack of proper electrical grounding can create a fire hazard or a
potentially serious shock hazard and could seriously damage the instrument and any
attached ancillary equipment.
Always use a three-wire outlet with ground connection which is adequately rated for
the load. The installation must comply with local, state, and federal safety regulations.
Do not connect the instrument to the main power supply until you have made sure
that the operating voltage is correctly set for the main power supply in the specific
outlet in your laboratory to which the equipment will be connected.
Other
Other specific warnings and cautions appear in the manuals where appropriate and
detail the specific hazard, describe how to avoid it, and specify the possible
consequences of not heeding the warning or caution.
Warning
A ‘Warning’ message appears in the manual when failure to observe instructions or
precautions could result in death or injury. Symbols depicting the nature of the specific
hazard are also placed alongside warnings.
