safety of the heating bath.
•
The heating bath’s safety temperature shall at least
25 °C lower than the ignition point of the medium
being handled.
•
Please don’t operate or use this instrument in an
explosive environment or underwater or use this
instrument to handle any dangerous substance.
•
This instrument is only suitable for the medium that
does not react with the energy generated in the
handling process in a way that might cause danger.
Meanwhile, the substance being handled may not
produce danger due to energy generated in any other
manner such as illumination reaction.
•
The instrument must be monitored all the time when
operating the instrument.
•
Please don’t operate this instrument under
overpressure.
•
To ensure the effective condensation of the motor
system, please do not block the vent of the motor
system.
•
Only use of the accessories in the list of “optional
accessories” can guarantee the operational safety.
•
Please refer to the operating instructions for heating

other suitable protective device.
•
Select the distilling device according to the amount to
be distilled and the distillation type. The condenser
must work normally. Please monitor the flow rate of
the coolant at the outlet of the cooler.
•
To prevent pressure buildup, the glass assembly shall
be kept vented when operating under normal pressure,
such as keeping the condenser open.
•
Please note that gases, vapor or other substances can
pose danger through overflow from the upper opening
of the condensation tube. To minimize or avoid such
danger, please take suitable measures, such as
connecting the cooling tube and scrubbing bottle or
other effective extraction devices downwards.
•
The glass evaporating flask may not be heated on one
side. The rotating evaporating flask must rotate at the
heating phase.
•
The glass assembly’ design pressure tolerance is
10mbar. The venting valve (see the part of “Testing”)
