Operation
C a u t i o n
Before start-up make sure the aerosol outlet is open. During operation ensure that
the produced aerosol can freely escape through tubes connected to the atomizer
outlet and that there are no bends in the outlet tubes.
The needle valve at the flowmeter must not be closed completely.
The aerosol generator should be placed on a rigid and even surface.
The atomizer glass vessel can be unscrewed and removed in order to be filled with aerosol substance.
For normal operation the volume of aerosol substance should be between 10 ml and 80 ml. A constant
aerosol production is ensured up to a minimum filling level of 10 ml.
For power supply, connect the power cord to the standard socket. The generator has a standardized
low-temperature device socket (IEC/EN 60320-1) as well as an integrated large range power supply
unit.
To stop and start operation, press the power switch.
