1.6 Intended use
Alternating climate chambers series MKF / MKFT are suitable for temperature drying and heat treatment
of solid or pulverized charging material, as well as bulk material, using the supply of heat. They are suita-
ble for harmless materials. A mixture of any component of the charging material with air must NOT be
explosive. The operating temperature must lie below the flash point or below the sublimation point of the
charging material. Any component of the charging material must NOT be able to release toxic gases.
Other applications are not approved.
The chambers are specially designed for solving all the problems which occur during material and ageing
tests.
The chambers are not classified as medical devices as defined by the Medical Device Directive
93/42/EEC.
Due to the special demands of the Medical Device Directive (MDD), these ovens are not quali-
fied for sterilization of medical devices as defined by the directive 93/42/EWG.
Following the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work
(chap. 17) is part of the intended use.
The chambers do not dispose of any measures of explosion protection.
DANGER
Explosion or implosion hazard.
Danger of poisoning.
Danger of death.
