Specific warnings
The following warnings (both symbols and text) can appear in the user
manuals of particular instruments and devices and on labels affixed to them
or their component parts.
Burst warning
This warning applies to Waters instruments and devices fitted with
nonmetallic tubing.
Biohazard warning
The following warning applies to Waters instruments and devices that can
process material containing biohazards, which are substances that contain
biological agents capable of producing harmful effects in humans.
Warning:
To avoid injury from bursting, nonmetallic tubing, heed these
precautions when working in the vicinity of such tubing when it is
pressurized:
• Wear eye protection.
• Extinguish all nearby flames.
• Do not use tubing that is, or has been, stressed or kinked.
• Do not expose nonmetallic tubing to incompatible compounds like
tetrahydrofuran (THF) and nitric or sulfuric acids.
• Be aware that some compounds, like methylene chloride and
dimethyl sulfoxide, can cause nonmetallic tubing to swell,
significantly reducing the pressure at which the tubing can rupture.
Warning:
To avoid infection with potentially infectious, human-sourced
products, inactivated microorganisms, and other biological materials,
assume that all biological fluids that you handle are infectious.
Specific precautions appear in the latest edition of the US National
Institutes of Health (NIH) publication,
Biosafety in Microbiological and
Biomedical Laboratories
(BMBL).
Observe Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) at all times, particularly when
working with hazardous materials, and consult your the biohazard
safety representative for your organization regarding the proper use and
handling of infectious substances.
