accessible by everyone in the laboratory
› Ensure that only trained staff operates the device
› Follow the safety instructions, (laboratory) guidelines, occupational
health and safety and accident prevention regulations (OSHA)
Attention – Magnetism! ( )
Effects of the magnetic field have to be taken into
account (eg data storage media, cardiac pacemakers )
/// Device design
Danger! ( )
› Do not operate the device in explosive atmospheres, or under water
› Set up the device in a spacious area on an even,
stable, clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface
› The feet of the device must be clean and undamaged
› Check the device and accessories for damage before each use
Do not use damaged components

Device surface is partially made of glass!
› Glass surface can be damaged by impact
› If glass surface is damaged it could cause injury, don‘t use
the device anymore and contact your IKA Service team
/// Permissible medium /
contaminants / side reactions
Warning! ( )
Beware of hazards due to:
› glass breakage
› incorrect container size
› overfilling of media
› unsafe condition of container
› Process pathogenic materials only in closed
vessels under a suitable fume hood
Please contact IKA if you have any questions.
Danger! ( )
› Only process media that will not react dangerously to the extra energy
produced through processing This also applies to any extra energy pro-
duced in other ways, eg through light irradiation
› Please consider any possible contaminations and unwanted
chemical reactions
› It may be possible for wear debris from rotating accessory parts
to reach the material being processed
› When using PTFE-coated magnetic bars, the following has to be noted:
Chemical reactions of PTFE occur in contact with molten or solute alkali
metals and alkaline earth metals, as well as with fine powders of metals in
groups 2 and 3 of the periodic system at temperatures above 300 °C – 400 °C
Only elementary fluorine, chlorotrifluoride and alkali metals attack it; halo-
genated hydrocarbons have a reversible swelling effect
