Your Thermo Scientific Hot Plate has been designed with
function, reliability, and safety in mind. It is your responsi-
bility to install it in conformance with local electrical codes.
For safe operation, please pay attention to the alert sig-
nals throughout the manual.
Warning: These products should be used only under the
operating conditions specified in the Operating Manual.
Always use safe laboratory practices and do not leave the
hotplate in operation while unattended as product fun-
cionality or laboratory practice failures could occur that
might lead to uncontrolled or excessive heating of the top
surface. Safety procedures (including, but not limited to,
unplugging when not in use) and response plans should
be put in place to address the worst case possibility. If an
over-temperature failure occurs, the top surface tempera-
ture could rise to the maximum temperature (300-540°C
depending on your model’s specification) and remain at
that temperature indefinitely. Under these conditions, the
material being heated on the surface of the hotplate could
reach levels in excess of the maximum temperature.
Warnings
To avoid electrical shock, always:
1.
Use a properly grounded electrical outlet of cor-
rect voltage and current handling capacity.
2.
Disconnect from the power supply prior to main-
tenance and servicing.
To avoid personal injury:
1.
Do not use in the presence of flammable or
combustible materials; top surface can reach the
“Flash Point Temperature” of many chemicals.
Fire or explosion may result. This device con-
tains components which may ignite such materi-
als. This Hot Plate is not explosion proof.
2.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
3.
“Caution: Hot Surface. Avoid Contact.” The sur-
face of the hot plate will remain hot for some
time after use.
