Return to supplier
1. Always flush and clean the submersible mixer, particularly if it has been used in
noxious, explosive, hot or other hazardous fluids.
2. If the submersible mixer has been used in fluids leaving residues which might
lead to corrosion when coming into contact with atmospheric humidity, or which
might ignite when coming into contact with oxygen, the submersible mixer must
also be neutralised and treated with anhydrous inert gas for drying purposes.
3. Always complete and enclose a certificate of decontamination when returning
the submersible mixer.
Always indicate any safety and decontamination measures taken.
