6 Operating the Device
6.1 Use of the Device for the Intended Purpose
Risk of injury
Potentially explosive atmosphere
− The device is not suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Operating the device in a potentially explosive atmosphere can lead to
injuries caused by an explosion or fire.
• Never operate the device in a potentially explosive atmosphere!
Risk of injury
Sample material that is harmful to health
− Sample material that is harmful to health can injure people (illness,
contamination).
• Use suitable extraction systems with sample material that is
harmful to health.
• Use suitable personal protective equipment with sample material
that is harmful to health.
• Take note of the safety data sheets for the sample material.
Risk of injury
Explosive or flammable samples
− Samples can explode or catch fire during the grinding process.
• Do not use any samples in this device that carry a risk of explosion
or fire.
• Take note of the safety data sheets for the sample material.
Risk of burns or poisoning
Varying sample properties
− The properties and therefore also the chemical reactivity of the sample
can change during the grinding process and can cause burns or poisoning
as a result.
• Do not process any substances in this device whose chemical
reactivity is so changed by grinding that there is a risk of explosion
or poisoning.
• Take note of the safety data sheets for the sample material.
This High Energy Ball Mill of the Retsch GmbH is a laboratory device. It grinds and mixes soft,
medium-hard to extremely hard, brittle and fibrous materials. Minerals, ores, alloys, chemicals,
glass, ceramics, plant parts, soil, sewage sludge and many other substances can be ground
easily, quickly and without loss.
