Safety information
Read the instructions of this manual carefully before using the instrument. The instrument can only be used
by personnel adequately trained in isoelectric gel electrophoresis. The provided instructions should be followed
accordingly.
For continued protection against electrical hazards, this device must be used according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
The instrument is designed for indoor use only. The instrument is used under the specified operating conditions,
tempe18 - +30 °C and relative humidity below 80 %.
The instrument cannot be used in high humidity (above 80% RH). When the instrument is delivered from a cool
environment to a warm environment, it is important that the instrument is equilibrated to ambient temperature before
operating. Ensure that the operating environment and laboratory practice will not cause excess condensation.
Do not store liquids on top of the instrument, and ensure that the environment of the instrument is clean and dry.
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye protection. All waste should be disposed of in accordance with local
regulations.
Conventions
The following conventions are used in all system documentation:

Caution:
A caution indicates an operation that could cause damage to the instrument or loss of data, or personal
injury to the operator or the patient if correct procedures are not followed.
Note:
A note emphasizes significant information in a procedure or description, and alerts users to key points of interest

In cases where a specific hazard or warning has been identified – such as an electrical or burn hazard – that symbol is
added to the cautions and warnings.
Warnings and precautions
Warning:
This instrument requires high voltage in operation.
Warning:
Do not attach the Migele Gel Electrophoresis Unit to the portable power supply if you identify any damage
on either of them. Also monitor wires. If you identify any damage, do not use the wires.
Warning:
Always disconnect the Migele Gel Electrophoresis Unit from the external power supply before cleaning or
servicing the unit.
Warning:
Only use water as a coolant in the Circulating Water Bath.
Warning:
The cooling plate's pressure should not exceed 0.5 bar.
Warning:
To ensure electrical safety, only use cables and adapters provided with the GEU.
Caution:
Maximum voltage (2000 V), current (0.1 A), and power (100 W), should not be exceeded.
Caution:
Always connect the cables to the instrument first and then to the power supply before turning the power
supply on.
