Safety notes on UV radiation
The protection of the user against UVC radiation is ensured by the protective glass
before the UV reactor. The protective glass must not be removed during operation.
Manipulations at the protective glass are not permitted!
Avoid looking into the protective glass for longer periods of time to protect your
eyesight.
No oxygen or synthetic air may be used as carrier gas! The UVC radiation of the UV
reactor would generate ozone due to dissociation of molecular oxygen. Ozone can
damage the mucous membranes.
2.5.6
Handling of auxiliary and operating materials
The operator is responsible for the selection of substances used in the process as well
as for their safe handling. This is particularly important for radioactive, infectious,
poisonous, corrosive, combustible, explosive and otherwise dangerous substances.
When handling dangerous substances local safety codes and guidelines must be
observed.
The following general notes do not replace the specific local regulations or the
regulations in the EG safety data sheets of the manufacturers for the auxiliary and
operating materials.
The following has to be observed:
The relevant regulations and the notes in the EC safety data sheets of the
manufacturers have to be observed and complied with regards to storage, handing,
use and disposal for all auxiliary and operation materials used during operation or
maintenance of the analyzer.
Auxiliary and operation materials may never be placed in containers or vessels for
food. The approved containers for the relevant material are to be used and these
have to be labelled accordingly. The notes on the labels have to be observed!
Protective goggles and rubber gloves have to be worn when handing reagents. The
