Safety Guidelines for Operation
When operating the iCAP Q system, please pay attention to the
following general safety guidelines.
WARNING
!
Toxic Gases.
Danger of intoxication. Toxic gases are released that
might lead to severe bodily harm when the plasma exhaust is not
connected to an exhaust system or the spray chamber is disassembled.
Do not disassemble the spray chamber when the plasma is still on.
CAUTION
!
Hazardous Chemical.
Samples and solvents might contain toxic,
carcinogenic, mutagenic, or corrosive/irritant chemicals. Avoid
exposure to potentially harmful materials. Always wear protective
clothing, gloves, and safety glasses when you handle solvents or
samples. Also contain waste streams and use proper ventilation. Refer
to your supplier's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for proper
handling of a particular compound.
CAUTION
!
Burn Hazard.
Fore vacuum pump in
operation
is hot and some
surfaces could reach a temperature higher than 80 °C (176 °F). Switch
off the pump and let it cool down before any intervention or take
appropriate precautions. All work on a pump that is “still warm from
operation” should be done only while wearing heat protective gloves.
CAUTION
!
Hot Surface
. Danger of burns. Switch off the plasma two minutes
before handling the torch or cones.
CAUTION
!
Hazardous Gases.
Danger to health. When operating the instrument
with hazardous gas, an external warning sensor must be installed in the
vicinity of the instrument.
CAUTION
!
UV Radiation.
Danger of severe bodily harm. UV radiation is released
when the spray chamber is disassembled. UV radiation might lead to
severe eye injury or blindness. Do not disassemble the spray chamber
when the plasma is still on. Keep a minimum distance of 20 cm when
looking in the plasma. Do not operate the system when the plasma
door window is damaged.
CAUTION
!
Hot Gases.
Danger of severe burns. Hot gases are released that might
lead to severe burns when the spray chamber is disassembled. Do not
disassemble the spray chamber when the plasma is still on.
