User manual

Before you override the UV safety interlock, read the following recommendations:
You should wear appropriate personal protection. As a minimum,
we recommend the use of full-face shields that meet the necessary
levels of UV protection. Those meeting the standard will be marked
with the ANSI Z87.1. notation [ANSI Z87.1-89, Practice for
Occupational and Educational Eye and Face Protection, IBR
approved for 29CFR1910.133(b)(1)].
We recommend that all users of UV be made familiar with the
guidelines published by the various national authorities. In the USA
these guidelines are published by OSHA (www.osha.gov) in their
standard 29CFR1910. This provides up to date safety information
and guidance. In the UK the NRPB (www.nrpb.org) issues similar
guidelines. Employers must familiarise themselves with these
guidelines and their obligations described in the standards.
In addition to face shields, we recommend that you should consider
wearing appropriate clothing to protect potential exposure to areas
of skin (face, arms, and hands for example).
N.B.
The door safety interlock is reset when you close the door
General operating conditions
The NuGenius/N has been designed and tested in accordance with the
safety requirements of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The
NuGenius/N conforms to IEC61010-1 (Safety Requirements for electrical
equipment for measurement, control and laboratory use) as it applies to IEC Class 1

If possible, avoid any adjustment, maintenance or repair to the instrument while
it is open and operative. However, if any adjustment, maintenance or repair is

hazards
involved.
Whenever circumstances arise that mean your NuGenius/N may be unsafe,
make it inoperative. In particular, a NuGenius/N may be unsafe if it:
Shows visible damage
