Mortal danger from electric shock
Exposed power contacts - High Voltage
− An electric shock can cause injuries in the form of burns and cardiac
arrhythmia, respiratory arrest or cardiac arrest.
• Set the mains switch of the analyser to position 0 and pull the
mains plug of the mains socket.
Fire hazard / Risk of burns
Hot parts (crucibles, reagents,.. ) can fall down
− Ignition of tables, floors, or any other surface the hot part falls on
− Ignition of clothes and any other material
• Set up the analyser in a flame retardant environment. Pay special
attention to the table, the floor and any other surface being in the near
of the analyser
• Make sure that the surrounding space of the analyser stays clear of any
flammable material
• Always wear suitable clothing
• Keep the work environment clear of all materials that could catch fire
Acceleration of fire / oxygen rich atmosphere
High purity oxygen carrier gas
– increased risk of fires
• Since the oxygen related risks heavily depend on the installation
situation in the laboratory, the user must make an own risk
assessment, evaluating the necessary steps to minimize the risks
introduced by handling oxygen from the source through the analyser
to the exhaust system.
Following requirements apply, when installing the analyzer:
Carrier gas Oxygen 99.95 % pure; 2 - 4bar (30 - 60psi)
Mains power supply 230VAC ±10%, 50/60Hz; 20A fuse
CEE-Plug 230V, 32A
