DANGER
Death or serious injuries when used in explosive environments.
• Do not store or operate the instrument in explosive environments
• Remove all sources of ammable vapors
• Do not store chemicals in the vicinity of the device
Put the instrument onto a clean, stable and horizontal surface. Consider the maximum product dimen-
sions and weight. Obtain the environmental conditions as described in section 3.1, technical data.
Installation pre-requisites and installation steps:
• Do not place any objects in front of or behind the instrument.
• The instrument must have a clearance of 40cm between itself and the wall, both in front and
behind (sufficient cooling).
• Do not place containers, chemicals or other items behind the instrument.
• Do not place anything on top of the Recirculating Chiller.
NOTE
• After transport, wait at least 2 hours before switching on the chiller! Within this time the refrigerant
gathers in the compressor, avoiding damage of the compressor.
• To ensure that the power can be cut by unplugging in case of an emergency, the mains plug must
not be blocked by the instruments or any other items!
• Depending on the environmental conditions, condensation water at the cooling tubes and all other
cold surfaces of the instruments can collect!
