WARNING: Use caution with hazardous chemicals or materials.
Personnel servicing equipment need to know the hazards of any
chemicals or materials that may be present on or in the equipment.
Use general hazard communication techniques such as a Safety Data
Sheet (SDS), labels, and pictograms to communicate any hazards.
WARNING: Potential confined space.
Operators may enter larger imPULSE S.U.M. systems. Evaluate this
equipment against your confined space standards and procedures.
WARNING: High noise level.
Sound levels can exceed 70 dB—Use proper PPE.
WARNING: Burst hazard—air under pressure.
The imPULSE BPC chamber is under slight pressure under normal
operating conditions. Normal passive venting prevents any excess of
pressure building up within the chamber. Chamber pressure and inlet
line pressure should be monitored for proper settings.
• Contents under pressure
• Do not exceed 0.5 psi (0.03 bar) BPC pressure
• Do not exceed 5 psi (0.34 bar) inlet pressure
• Assure vent filter is correctly positioned and working properly
WARNING: Hot surface—do not touch.
The heating jacket is designed to heat the inner vessel wall. Normal
operating conditions generate heat and could create hot surfaces.
• Hot surface inside
• Contact with surfaces may cause burns
• Do not touch while in operation
WARNING: Pinch hazard.
• Use caution when opening or closing the pinch valves.
• The optional BPC hoist on the imPULSE S.U.M. can be raised and
lowered. Caution should be used to avoid pinching an operator
or causing damage to the equipment or the BPC. The maximum
weight limit of the bag hoist it 50 kg.
• The imPULSE linear drive carriage can settle, creating a potential
pinch hazard. Use the safety settling block when the safety guard is
removed and the carriage is in the “Up” position.
WARNING: The Thermo Scientific imPULSE Single-Use Mixer
may not be installed in a potentially explosive atmosphere as
set forth in the applicable EU ATEX Directive.
It is the responsibility of the end user to review and understand the
potential dangers listed in the ATEX 2014/34/EU guidelines.
