Safety instructions 

multi EA 4000 

12 

 

The operation or servicing of the analyzer by minors or individuals under the influ-

ence of alcohol, drugs or medication is not permitted.  

 

It must be ensured that only authorized personnel works at the analyzer.  

 

The operating personnel must be familiar with the dangers arising from measuring 

liquids. The appropriate protective equipment must be used.  

 

Prior to pauses or at the end of the work appropriate skin cleaning and protection 

measures must be carried out.  

 

Eating, drinking, smoking or handling open flames in the operating room of the an-
alyzer is prohibited!  

 

 

2.4

 

Safety instructions, transport and commissioning 

The analyzer is always installed by the customer service department of Analytik Jena 

AG or its authorized and trained specialist personnel. Independent assembly and in-

stallation are not permitted. Incorrect installation can create serious hazards.  

The following has to be observed:  

 

Insufficiently secured components pose a risk of injury! During transport, the com-
ponents of the equipment must be secured in accordance with the instructions in 

the user manual.  

 

Only transport the analyzer in its original packaging! Ensure that the transport pro-
tections have been fitted and the analyzer is completely empty.  

 

To prevent health damage the following must be observed when moving the ana-

lyzer in the laboratory (lifting and carrying):  

 

For reasons of safety, 2 persons are required to transport the analyzer and 

must position themselves on both sides of the equipment.  

 

Because the analyzer does not feature any handles, firmly grip the device from 
the bottom and make sure prior to simultaneous lifting the device that the sen-

sitive components at the front are protected by the closed doors.  

 

The guide values and statutory limits for lifting and carrying loads without aux-
iliary equipment must be observed and adhered to.  

 

For a transport beyond moving within the building the heating elements and fur-

nace cartridge must be removed from the basic device. The re-installation of these 
device components and subsequent commissioning must be performed by the cus-

tomer service department of Analytik Jena AG or authorized and trained specialist 

personnel. 

 

Risk of damage to health due to improper decontamination! Perform a professional 

and documented decontamination of the device before returning it to Analytik 

Jena. The decontamination report is available from Service when registering the re-
turn.  

Analytik Jena must refuse acceptance of contaminated devices. The sender may be 

liable for damage caused by inadequate decontamination of the device.
