AZURA® Conductivity Monitor CM 2.1S Instructions, V6710
2. Basic safety instructions
The device has been developed and constructed in such a way that haz-
ards arising from its intended use are largely excluded. Nevertheless, the
following safety instructions must be observed in order to exclude residu-
al hazards.
2.1 Intended use
Note:
Only use the device for applications that fall within the range of
the intended use. Otherwise, the protective and safety equipment of the
device could fail.
The conductivity monitor CM 2.1S measures the electrical resistance of a
solution and indicates its conductivity. For example, the change in con-
ductivity during a programmed salt or buffer gradient - as used in FPLC
and HPLC - can be followed.
The monitor consists of a processing device and a flow cell, and can addi-
tionally be used with a pH monitor. The pH flow cell and the pH electrode
must be ordered separately. In case you are not using the pH monitor,
you have to protect the connector on the device front with a with a BNC
blind plug that comes with the delivery.
The monitor is used for salinity gradient monitoring in the following
areas:
Biochromatography
Process analysis
Biochemical analysis
Pharmaceutical analysis
Environmental analysis
2.1.1 Operating ranges
The device is intended to be used indoors for chromatographic
applications.
2.1.2 Foreseeable misuse
Refrain from the use of the device for the following purposes or
conditions:
Medical purposes. The device is not approved as a medical product.
Operating outdoors. Otherwise, the manufacturer does not guarantee
the functionality and safety of the device.
Operation in potentially explosive areas without special and addition-
al explosion protection. Contact the KNAUER Customer Support for
