NOTE: When you remove the instrument from storage and before you put it into operation, allow it to
stand for at least a day under the recommended operating conditions.
Laboratory hygiene
•
Keep the work area scrupulously clean to avoid contaminating your samples and to maintain
a safe working environment. Clean up spilled chemicals immediately and dispose of them
properly.
•
Do not allow waste to accumulate in the work area. Dispose of waste correctly.
•
Do not allow smoking in the work area. Smoking is a source of significant contamination
and also a potential route for ingesting harmful chemicals.
•
Do not store, handle, or consume food in the work area.
Working with chemicals
Some chemicals used with the instrument may be hazardous or may become hazardous after
completion of an analysis.
•
Use, store, and dispose of chemicals in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations and the applicable national, state, and/or local regulations.
•
Do not put open containers of solvent near the instrument.
•
Store solvents in an approved cabinet (with the appropriate ventilation) away from the
instrument.
•
Wear appropriate eye protection at all times while handling chemicals. Depending on the
types of chemicals you are handling, wear safety glasses with side shields, or goggles, or a
full-face shield.
•
Wear suitable protective clothing, including gloves if necessary, resistant to the chemicals
you are handling.
•
When preparing chemical solutions, always work in a fume hood that is suitable for the
chemicals you are using.
•
Perform sample preparation away from the instrument to minimize corrosion and
contamination.
•
Clean up spills immediately using the appropriate equipment and supplies, such as spill
cleanup kits.
