Additional points concerning the evaporation of solvent-containing products
With regards of corrosion resistance, the use of some organic solvents in
aqueous solutions is acceptable.
Under certain circumstances, the evaporation of products containing
solvents may lead to the formation of explosive mixtures. This is why the
operator must draw up special operating instructions/SOPs including
precise instructions
• concerning the chamber pressure and temperature for every product
that is to be processed in the RVC,
• concerning the inspection of the RVC in view of damage caused by the
solvent that is used (see chapter 1.2 - "Intended use", section
"Evaporation of solvent-containing products").
