Installing the Analysis Dewar

When handling Dewars containing liquefied gases:
• Wear protection by using:
– goggles (or a face shield)
– an insulated or rubber apron
– insulated gloves
• When pouring liquefied gases from one container to another:
– cool the receiving container gradually to minimize thermal shock
– pour the liquefied gas slowly to prevent splashing
– vent the receiving container to the atmosphere
Always handle glass Dewars with care. Any product incorporating a vacuum is a
potential safety hazard and should be treated with caution. Always observe the
precautions listed below.
