Safety for Users 5

Accident prevention regulations published by the accident insurance
companies for laboratory work

Filtration of substances under analysis

Use of inline filters

Once the capillaries have been used, never re-use them in other areas
of the HPLC system.

Only use a given PEEK fitting for one specific port and never re-use it
for other ports. Always install new PEEK fittings on each separate port.

Follow KNAUER or manufacturer’s instructions on caring for the
colums.
More safety-relevant information is listed below:

flammability: Organic solvents are highly flammable. Since capillaries
can detach from their screw fittings and allow solvent to escape, it is
prohibited to have any open flames near the analytical system.

solvent tray: Risk of electrical shock or short circuit if liquids get into the
device's interior. For this reason, place all bottles in a solvent tray.

solvent lines: Install capillaries and tubing in such a way that liquids
cannot get into the interior in case of a leak.

leaks: Regularly check if any system components are leaking.

power cable: Defective power cables are not to be used to connect the
device and the power supply system.

self-ignition point: Only use eluents that have a self-ignition point
higher than 150 °C under normal ambient conditions.

power strip: If several devices are connected to one power strip, always
consider the maximum power consumption of each device.

power supply: Only connect devices to voltage sources, whose voltage
equals the device's voltage.

toxicity: Organic eluents are toxic above a certain concentration.
Ensure that work areas are always well-ventilated! Wear protective
gloves and safety glasses when working on the device!
