Installation
CAUTION:
READ SECTION 6 ENTITLED BATH USE
before placing the bath in service. Incorrect handling can damage the
bath and void the warranty.
This bath is not designed to be portable. Therefore, moving the bath once it has
been installed should be kept to a minimum.
Never move a bath that is full of “hot” fluid. This action could be ex-
tremely dangerous and could result in personal injury to the person mov-
ing the bath.
If the bath is going to be placed in an area where it will need to be moved fre-
quently, a special cart can be designed to accommodate the bath. Thus making
the bath much more portable. Hart sells carts designed for these baths. How-
ever, even with a cart the bath should not be moved full of “hot” fluid. The
fluid can splash causing injury or if the bath and cart tip, the “hot” fluid could
cause damage to the surrounding area and personal injury to personnel.
If the bath must be moved, be sure to drain the fluid to prevent any injury. To
safely move the bath, two people are required. One person should lift the bath
by the tower, while the second person slides their hands underneath the bath
tank and lifts the bath.
Refer to the Appendix specific to your bath model for additional installation
instructions.

Bath Environment
CAUTION:
DO NOT place under a cabinet or other structure. Allow for
overhead clearance.
The bath is a precision instrument which should be located in an appropriate
environment. The location should be free of drafts, extreme temperatures and
temperature changes, dirt, etc. The surface where the bath is placed must be
level.
Because the bath is designed for operation at high temperatures, keep all flam-
mable and meltable materials away from the bath. Although the bath is well in-
sulated, top surfaces do become hot. Beware of the danger of accidental fluid
spills.
If used at high temperatures, a fume hood should be used to remove any va-
pors given off by hot bath fluid.
Allow for sufficient air circulation by leaving at least six inches of space be-
tween the bath and nearby objects.
