Instrument safety
General
CAUTION!
Do not remove instrument protective covers.
If you remove the
protective instrument panels or disable interlock devices, you may be exposed to
serious hazards including, but not limited to, severe electrical shock, laser exposure,
crushing, or chemical exposure.
CAUTION!
Solvents and Pressurized fluids.
Wear eye protection when working
with any pressurized fluids. Use caution when working with any polymeric tubing that
is under pressure:
·
Extinguish any nearby flames if you use flammable solvents.
·
Do not use polymeric tubing that has been severely stressed or kinked.
·
Do not use polymeric tubing with tetrahydrofuran or nitric and sulfuric acids.
·
Be aware that methylene chloride and dimethyl sulfoxide cause polymeric tubing
to swell and greatly reduce the rupture pressure of the tubing.
·
Be aware that high solvent flow rates (~40mL/min) may cause a static charge to
build up on the surface of the tubing and electrical sparks may result.
