•
Do not use metal tools around the connectors when there is power to the unit, as they may
cause arcing.
•
Turn off power before connecting alligator clips to any circuit.
•
Do not take anything for granted when working with inexperienced help. Check every
operation before they perform it.
•
The operation of this unit creates large amounts of heated process fluid. This fluid is likely to
be heated to temperatures above the threshold of safety for human contact. Please be
advised of this and take the necessary precautions whenever connecting or disconnecting
any plumbing from the system. If you are ever in doubt, turn the unit off, and wait an
appropriate amount of time before performing any operations or service involving the
plumbing.
•
The process fluid within this system may also become pressurized from outside flow sources.
It is the user’s responsibility to verify that pressure within the system has been relieved
externally, in order to prevent exposure to hazardous fluid such heated de-ionized water, or
heated acids.
•
This unit has several safety interlocks integrated within the system. However, it is the use
r’s
responsibility to verify that incoming power has been disconnected from a remote source prior
to opening or servicing the unit. This is advised to prevent user exposure to high voltage and
current, and reduce the risk of electric shock.
•
This function of this unit is to heat process fluid for use in ultra-pure operations. Therefore
during normal operation unit will become heated within the plumbing and the heater
compartment. It is our recommendation that the unit is allowed a sufficient amount of time to
cool before any maintenance or inspections are made to the unit in order to prevent user
exposure to heated surfaces or air.
•
The processes in which this unit is used involve heated fluids. Whenever heated fluids are
involved, certain precautions must be taken in order to avoid user injury. This is especially
important since it is highly likely that this unit will be used with aggressive fluids which can
further harm or injure an individual, such as de-ionized water and process acids. User
exposure to these types of materials can result in burning, scalding, and in some cases deep
tissue damage. To avoid injury it is the user’s responsibility to take the appropriate
precautions as outlined above, and in all cases dealing with heated or aggressive materials,
to use the appropriate safety equipment, such as but not limited to safety goggles and glasses,
and chemically resistant gloves and garments.
