Safety Practices for Flame Atomization
• The atomizer compartment door is closed;
• The pH of the liquid in the drain vessel is greater than pH 10 if you intend
to aspirate cyanide solutions.
• Do not leave the flame unattended. Always make sure that there is a fire
extinguisher near the instrument.
• Never change the gas pressure or shut a gas valve while the flame is
burning.
• Make sure that the drain tubing is attached.
• Do not allow the burner head slot to become blocked. This can cause a
flashback of the flame.
• Do not place open containers of flammable liquids and solvents near the
flame. Be especially careful with samples that contain highly volatile
solvents.
• When you have analyzed samples containing organic solvents, flush all
traces of solvent from the burner system.
The Drain System
• Always place the drain vessel in a well ventilated place underneath the
spectrometer, in full view while you are working with the spectrometer. This
prevents the build-up of potentially hazardous gases, and allows you to see the
liquid level.
• Never use a glass drain vessel.
• Do not kink, fold, or loop the drain tube.
• Never place the drain tube directly into a laboratory sink.
Warning: Do not open the flame door during flame operation. When
the flame is ON, do not open or remove the burner door . The burner
door is there to protect the operator from the hot flame and UV radiation
while running the flame atomization. !
