Warning Labels
Besides the dangers described above, there can also be hazardous situations caused
by the sample material. Depending on the type of hazardous substances you work with,
you have to observe specific substance-relevant safety instructions. Put on the corre-
sponding warning label on the appropriate spectrometer position. The label must be
legible and permanently discernible. The following list contains some examples of haz-
ardous substances:
C a u t i o n - F r o s t b i t e
This warning symbol indicates cryogenic materials (e.g. liquid nitrogen)
required to operate the spectrometer (e.g. cooling detector). Skin contact
with these liquids or cooled components causes severe frostbite. Always
handle the liquids with utmost care. Observe the safety instructions for
handling of cryogenic liquids.
C a u t i o n - H a r m f u l M a t e r i a l
This warning symbol indicates the existence of harmful or irritant material
(e.g. the window material BaF
2
). Observe the safety instructions on the
packaging, and the safety data sheets attached. Non-observance may
cause personal injury.
C a u t i o n - T o x i c M a t e r i a l
This warning symbol indicates the existence of toxic material (e.g. the win-
dow material KRS-5). Observe the safety instructions on the packaging,
and the safety data sheets attached. Non-observance may cause severe
personal injury or even death.
C a u t i o n - I n f e c t i o u s M a t e r i a l
This warning symbol indicates the possible presence of bio-hazardous and
infectious material. When working with this kind of material always, observe
the prevailing laboratory safety regulations and take all necessary precau-
tions and disinfection measures (e.g. wearing protective clothing, masks,
gloves etc.). Failure to do so may cause severe personal injury or even
death. (For information on how to use, dilute and efficiently apply disinfec-
tants, refer to the
Laboratory Biosafety Manual: 1993
by WHO - World
Health Organization.)
C a u t i o n - R a d i o a c t i v e M a t e r i a l
This warning symbol indicates the possible presence of radioactivity. When
working with radioactive material, always observe the safety regulations
and take all necessary protective measures (e.g. wearing protective cloth-
ing, masks gloves etc.). Failure to do so may cause severe personal injury
or even death.
