WARNING
Wear safety goggles. Calibration liquid may be ejected when
working with the micro bath. Always wear safety goggles when handling
calibration liquids.

The transport cover has a pressure relief safety valve. The valve opens when the
micro bath pressures exceeds ~1.5
bar. This can result in hot vapor being
released.
