Safety instructions
The FlexCell test cells are only intended for the above-mentioned
purpose.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper
use.
Observe the following instructions, otherwise the test cells may be
damaged or measurement results may be falsified.
When working with chemicals, all relevant safety regulations of the
manufacturer and the laboratory must be observed.
The cell heater and / or the cell current you apply can heat the test
cell over 80°C/150°C.
The test cells must be placed on a base that is insensitive to heat.
Do not place heat sensitive things on the half cell.
Do not place inflammable things near the half cell.
Pay attention to a correct lining of your measurement and heating
cable.
Select cable insulations with a reasonable temperature specification.
Else there is a risk of an electrical shortcut and fire hazard.
Electrolyte vapours are constantly emitted from the test cell
according to the vapour pressure curve.
The test cell should be operated on a laboratory tray that can safely
hold the entire filled electrolyte volume in case of leakage.
Protect electrical / electronic equipment by a large distance,
partitions or operation under a fume cupboard.
Wear safety glasses.
The electrolyte can splash out of the test cell in the event of pressure
surges on the gas inlet or when the boiling point is reached.
The operator of the test cell must be equipped with adequate
laboratory protective equipment according to the safety data sheets
and specifications for your electrolyte.
