Biotage ELSD-1080
• Do not allow gas lines to become kinked or punctured. Place
lines away from foot traffic and extreme heat or cold.
• Store organic solvents in fireproof, vented and clearly
labeled cabinets so they are easily identified as toxic and/or
flammable materials.
• Do not accumulate waste solvents. Dispose of such
materials through a regulated disposal program and not
through municipal sewage lines.
This detector has been tested per applicable requirements of
LVD & EMC Directive as required to carry the European Union
CE Mark. This equipment may be susceptible to
radiation/interference levels or frequencies that are not within
the tested limits.
Electrical Hazards
Exposure to high voltages can cause severe skin damage and
cataracts of the eyes, while close contact with the electrical
components can result in severe heat burns to the skin, and an
electrical discharge which may cause death, severe electric
shock or sub-surface skin burns.
Biotage ELSD-1080 detectors have been carefully designed to
operate safely and effectively when using components that
conform to the design criteria. Use of non-approved
components in the detector may render the system inoperative
and/or hazardous. It may also invalidate the warranty on the
detector. Use only related components supplied or authorized
by Biotage.
Voltages above 110 V AC are present within the detector.
• Disconnect the detector from all power sources before
removing protective panels to avoid exposure to potentially
dangerous voltages. ONLY Customer Service
Representatives trained, qualified, or approved by Biotage
may open panels or covers that are retained by screws on
the detector. Consult the manuals or product labels supplied
with your detector to determine which parts are operator-
accessible.
• Whenever it is likely that the protection has been impaired,
the detector must be made inoperative and be secured
against any unintended operation.
• When it is necessary to use a non-original power cord plug,
make sure the replacement cord adheres to the color-coding
and polarity described in the manual and all local building
safety codes.
• Good grounding/earthing is essential to avoid a potentially
serious electric shock hazard. Consult the manuals or
product labels supplied with your detector for the relevant
grounding requirements.
• Replace blown fuses with fuses of the size and rating shown
on the fuse panel or in the manual.
• Replace faulty or frayed power cords immediately with the
same type and rating.
