Warning:
Do not empty the bath while the fluid is still hot/
cold, there is a risk of burning/freezing�
Note:
Please note the permissible temperature range of
hoses� For hot fluids we recommend the
IKA
®
LT 5�20
hoses�
When the external system is not necessary, please seal
the pump connector
IN
and
OUT
with the existing union
nuts and stoppers�
When
IKA
®
calorimeter is not connected, please close
the “
Backflow
” connector with included backflow cap�
In case of closed external system, if there is in any case no
risk of exceeding the maximum fluid level, you can close
the “
Overflow
” connector with the included overflow
cap� This minimizes the energy loss and protects, in case
of long-term applications with low temperatures and
high humidity, against unwanted water input and the as-
sociated volume increase�
Check fluid heat expansion!
