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 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 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.
Risk of injury caused by liquid nitrogen
Use of liquid nitrogen during cryogenic grinding
− Liquid nitrogen has a boiling point of – 196 °C and causes burn-like
injuries and frostbite if there is skin and eye contact.
• Take note of the liquid nitrogen safety data sheets.
• Always wear goggles and protective gloves when using liquid
nitrogen.
