Chapter 2 Safety

2.1 Safety Information

For the continuing safety of the operators of this equipment, and the protection of the equipment itself, the operator should

 

take note of the 

Warnings, Cautions

 and 

Notes

 throughout this handbook and, where visible, on the product itself.

The following safety symbols may be used throughout the handbook and on the equipment itself.

2.2 General Warnings

Warning: Risk of Electrical Shock

Given when there is a risk of injury from electrical shock.

Warning

Given when there is a risk of injury to users.

Caution

Given when there is a risk of damage to the product.

Note

Clarification of an instruction or additional information.

Warning

These Motorized Actuators can generate high forces. If handled improperly, they may cause injury. Be aware that failure

 

of the motor controller may drive the unit into a hard stop and cause damage to the unit.
To avoid injury never put anything in the gap between the Actuator and any rigid structure.
Because it can be software controlled it should be noted that this device could begin to move unexpectedly for a person

 

within its envelope of operation who had not programmed the move.

Warning

If this equipment is used in a manner not specified in the handbook, the protection provided by the equipment may be

impaired. In particular, excessive moisture may impair operation.
Spillage of  fluid,  such as sample  solutions, should be avoided. If  spillage does occur,  clean  up  immediately using

absorbant tissue. Do not allow spilled fluid to enter the internal mechanism.
The equipment is for indoor use only.

Caution

If the actuator encounters a hard stop while still in the middle of its range (i.e. a translation stage at the end of its travel

 

range), the motor should be stopped as soon as possible to prevent damage 

a

nd to keep the unit from overheating

.

Caution

When storing these units, be sure to fully retract the lead screw to protect the threads from damage. Improper connection

of the motor will result in permanent damage. All power supplied to the motor should be turned off before altering any

connections to the motor. Check all connections before supplying power to the motor.
