tections have been fitted and the analyzer is completely empty.

 To prevent damaged to health the following must be observed when moving the ana-

lyzer in the laboratory (lifting and carrying):

− For reasons of safety 2 persons are required to transport the analyzer and must

position themselves on both sides of the equipment.

− Because the analyzer does not feature any handles, firmly grip the device from

the bottom and make sure prior to simultaneous lifting the device that the sensi-

tive components at the front are protected by the closed doors.

− The guide values and statutory limits for lifting and carrying loads without auxiliary

equipment must be observed and adhered to.

3.7 Safety instructions – operation

3.7.1 General

The operator of the analyzer must make sure before each commissioning that the condition

of the analyzers including the safety equipment is sound. This applies in particular after each

modification or extension of the analyzer or its repair.

The following has to be observed:

 The analyzer must only be operated if all protective equipment (e.g. covers, drip

pans for chemicals and doors) are present, properly installed and fully operational.

 The sound condition of the protection and safety equipment must be checked regu-

larly. Any defects must be corrected as soon as they occur.

 Protective and safety equipment must never be removed, modified or decommis-

sioned during operation.

 Free access to the power switch on the back of the enclosure has to be ensured dur-

ing operation.

 The ventilation equipment on the multi EA 4000 and the extension modules must be

in good working condition. Covered vents or ventilation slits etc. may cause the de-

vice to break down or may cause damage to it.

 The analyzer must not be switched on without the combustion tube being fitted.

 The furnace operates with temperatures of up to 1500 °C. The hot components (fur-

nace, gas sluice, boat) must not be touched during or directly after the operation of

the analyzer.

In manual operation the hot boats must be deposited on the surface of the manual

feed or on some other heat-resistant surface.

 During automatic cooling do not interrupt the power supply. In case of prolonged

power failure during operation disconnect the mains plug and open the housing wall

to prevent damage from overheating.

 Keep all combustible materials away from the analyzer.
