Section 1 - Getting to know your Moisture Analyzer
Your Moisture Analyzer employs state of the art technology and meets the latest demands
regarding instrument safety. Improper operation can endanger personnel and can cause
property damage. For safe and dependable operation, please comply with the following
instructions:
The Moisture Analyzer is used for determination of the moisture in samples. Please use
the instrument exclusively for this purpose. Any other type of use can endanger person
nel and damage the instrument or other property.
The Moisture Analyzer must not be operated in a hazardous environment and only under
ambient conditions specified in these instructions.
The Moisture Analyzer may be operated only by trained personnel who are familiar with
the properties of the samples used and with the handling of the instrument.
Your Moisture Analyzer is supplied with a 3-pin power cable with an equipment ground
ing conductor. Only extension cables which meet the relevant standards and also have
an equipment grounding conductor may be used. Intentional disconnection of the
equipment grounding conductor is prohibited.
1.4 Safety is first
The Halogen Moisture Analyzer works with heat!
Ensure sufficient free space around the instrument to avoid heat accumulation and
overheating (approximately 1 m free space above the instrument).
Never place flammable materials on, below or next to the instrument as the area around
the dryer unit warms up.
Exercise caution when removing the sample. The sample itself, the sample chamber and
any sample containers may still be very hot.
During operation, you should never open the dryer unit as the ring-shaped heating
element or its protective glass can reach 400°C! If you have to open the dryer unit on
occasion, disconnect the instrument from the power supply and wait until the dryer unit
has cooled down completely.
