Safety Instructions

Never leave the calibrator unattended when it is in operation or in the cooling phase.
Do not remove or obliterate type plates or other markings on the device, as otherwise the
warranty is rendered null and void.
Special safety instructions:
Thermal fuse!
The calibrator is equipped with a temperature fuse that works independently. If there is
an over-temperature in the inside of the housing, the power supply to the heating system
is cut off. The calibrator cannot then be started any more.
After it has cooled, send the calibrator for inspection to SIKA.
Risk of injury from hazardous gases!
When liquids are heated, the evaporation can result in dangerous gases being formed.
The calibrator may not be used in an explosion-endangered atmosphere (ignitable or
explosive atmosphere).
Remove all the easily flammable media from the vicinity of the calibrator.
Ensure that the calibrator cannot come in contact with easily flammable or explosive
media.
Operate the calibrator only in the temperature range permissible for the test sample.
Ensure that the test sample is securely fixed in the calibrator.
Use only suitable adapter sleeves or calibration inserts.
When doing so, also ensure that the structural safety of the calibrator is retained.
IMPORTANT NOTICE!
The transport cover is equipped with a safety valve, which is activated once the pressure
reaches ~1.5 bar. This can result in hot steam being released.
Always unscrew the transport cover before putting the micro bath into service, in
order to avoid excessive pressure.
Wait until the micro bath has cooled down before screwing on the transport cover.
Further warnings that are specifically relevant to individual operating procedures or activities
can be found at the beginning of the relevant sections of this operating manual.
