SimpleDist® Micro Heating Block:
Operation & Instruction Manual
Care & Maintenance
Care & Maintenance
• Any service inquiries should be directed to Environmental Express Technical Service
Department. After each use, clean exterior surfaces with a damp sponge to remove acid residue.
• For acid spills, sponge with a diluted solution of sodium bicarbonate followed by distilled water.
Acid that is spilled directly into the digestion wells should be neutralized and removed.
• Before using any cleaning or decontamination methods except those recommended, check with
Environmental Express to confirm the proposed method will not damage your heating block.
• Avoid excessive spills, as liquid allowed to overflow into the SimpleDist® Micro heating block
casing can severely damage electronic components.
• Unplug the SimpleDist® Micro heating block from the outlet prior to cleaning exterior surfaces.
Wipe with damp sponge or towel after each use, first with mild sodium bicarbonate or similar
solution followed by DI or distilled water. Avoid solutions on or near the controls.
• If boil over does occur during operation, immediately wipe the heating block system down with
neutralizing solution, such as a mild solution of sodium bicarbonate.
