2 .5 .4 Safety elements
The instrument is provided with the following safety elements:
• Protective door: Safety appliance to protect users from burns at the splash protector (distillation
area), which is hot during distillation.

a running distillation and the dosing of reagents immediately when the protective door is opened
during the process.
• Sample tube sensor: Prevents the start of a distillation without a sample tube inserted.
• Protective shield (cover) at condenser: Protects the glass parts.
• Service door sensor/switch: Electrical power is disconnected immediately when the service door is
opened, thus preventing electrical shock during maintenance.

• Optional level sensors for reagent and waste tank: A running distillation is interrupted when the
tanks are too full or too empty respectively.
• Drip tray: Collects overflowing liquids.
• Automatic chemical dosage: Ensures the use of homogeneous liquid amounts.
