Special safety information
The use of the thermostat is only admissible under the following conditions:
•
The siting surface must be impervious, flat, non-slip and non-combustible. Do not position the ther-
mostat at the edge of the bench or table.
•
Keep to the specified wall spacing (
Ì
•
Protect the thermostat from dripping or condensing water.
•
Do not store any liquids or combustible objects above the device.
•
Do not work with flammable liquids in the direct vicinity of the device.
•
Only connect the device to an earthed mains socket which is freely accessible.
•
At higher operating temperatures parts of the bath cover can take on temperatures of over 70 °C.
There is a danger of burns.
•
Only use suitable hoses. (
Ì
•
Ensure that the hoses are not kinked during operation.
•
Check the hoses at certain inspection intervals (
Ì
8.3.2) for material fatigue.
•
Hoses with hot heat transfer liquid and other hot parts must not come into contact with the mains
cable.
•
When using the thermostat as a circulation thermostat, hot liquid can escape due to hose fracture
and become a danger to personnel and materials.
•
Toxic vapors may be generated depending on the heat transfer liquid used and the operating mode.
- Ensure sufficient extraction of the vapors.
- Use the bath cover.
•
Carefully mount the immersion thermostat on the bath vessel.
•
Only use bath vessels which are suitable for the intended operating temperatures.
•
When filling, set the overtemperature switch-off point according to the heat transfer liquid used.
•
When changing the heat transfer liquid from water to other liquids for temperatures above 100 °C,
carefully remove all residues of water including from the hoses and consumers, otherwise there is a
risk of scalding due to delay in boiling.
To do this also remove the blank plugs on the pump inputs and outputs and blow them out with com-
pressed air.
•
Use the cooling coil with cooling water only at operating temperatures below 100 °C. At higher tem-
peratures there is danger of hot vapors forming.
•
Have repairs carried out only by specialists.
•
Keep to all the service and maintenance intervals according to VDI 3033. (
Ì
•
Take note of all safety labels.
Applicable to water-cooled devices:
•
Secure the return hose of the water cooling in the discharge area in order to prevent the hose sliding
off uncontrollably, also during pressure surges.
•
Secure the return hose of the water cooling in the discharge area so that it is not possible of hot cool-
ing water to splash out.
•
Avoid kinking or crushing the return hose of the water cooling. Excessive pressure can cause the
cooling water hoses to tear and hot water to escape.
•
To avoid damage due to a leak in the cooling water system we recommend the use of a water leak-
age sensor with water cut-off.
