Chapter 1 Introduction to this manual

Those who are more familiar with particle size analysers may wish to jump straight
to Chapter 4 of the main User Manual which gives details on making measure-
ments. However, the importance of sample preparation before measurement can-
not be overstated so we recommend reading the chapter on sample preparation
(Chapter 8 of the main User Manual) as a priority.
Warning!
Static discharge can occur around the exit and feed pipe regions of the unit
under certain combinations of material, flow rate and humidity. If this is a
concern in your application, contact your Malvern supplier.
Access to the instrument
Within this manual, reference is made to the various people who will have access to
the dispersion unit. The following is a list of these people and their responsibilities:
Malvern personnel
Malvern personnel (service engineers, representatives, etc.) have full access to the
dispersion unit and are authorised to perform all service procedures that may
require the removal of the covers.
Supervisor
The supervisor is the person responsible for the management/safety of the disper-
sion unit and of its operation. The supervisor is responsible for the training of the
operators. The supervisor can perform all user maintenance routines identified in
Chapter 4 of the Essentials Manual, including changing the fuses.
Warning!
The supervisor/operator must never remove the covers of the instrument
or dispersion unit. Removal of the covers by unauthorised personnel will
invalidate the warranty of the dispersion unit.
Operator
An operator is a person trained in the use of the dispersion unit. The operator can
perform all user maintenance routines identified in Chapter 4 of the Essentials
Manual, except for changing the fuses.
