Safety Notes
6
The temperature controlling i.e. immersing of test-
tubes, Erlenmeyer flasks or similar objects directly
within the circulator constitutes normal circulator
practise.
We do not know which substances are contained within
these vessels. Many substances are:
•
inflammable, easily ignited or explosive
•
hazardous to health
•
environmentally unsafe
i.e.: dangerous
You alone are responsible for the handling of these sub-
stances!
Our advice:
•
If in doubt, consult a safety specialist.
•
Read the product manufacturer’s or supplier’s
“
EC – SAFETY DATA SHEET”
•
Read relevant regulations concerning dangerous
materials
•
Observe relevant guidelines for laboratories in your
country
The following measures were taken for the protection of
the operator:
•
Protection Class I according to VDE 0106 T1
i.e. protection against electric shocks by grounding all
parts which carry the risk of electric contact.
The device must only be connected to mains recep-
tacles with a protective ground.
•
Protection IP 20 according to EN 60529
i. e. regarding the protection against accidently touch-
ing live parts and damage by foreign matter, it has been
ensured that foreign bodies with a thickness or diame-
ter of more than 12 mm cannot penetrate.
No special precautions were taken against the pe-
netration of water and dust. The device should there-
fore not be used in a dusty atmosphere or in the neigh-
borhood of spray water.
Do not insert wires or tools in any of the openings.
Complete separation from the mains is required
when:

all dangers caused by this device are to
be avoided,
