A-4 Safety Advisories
Mass spectrometer shock hazard
This warning applies to all Waters mass spectrometers.
This warning applies to certain instruments when they are in Operate mode.
Biohazard warning
This warning applies to Waters instruments that can be used to process
material that might contain biohazards: substances that contain biological
agents capable of producing harmful effects in humans.
Warning:
To avoid electric shock, do not remove the mass spectrometer’s
protective panels. The components they cover are not user-serviceable.
Warning:
High voltages can be present at certain external surfaces of
the mass spectrometer when the instrument is in Operate mode. To
avoid non-lethal electric shock, make sure the instrument is in Standby
mode before touching areas marked with this high voltage warning
symbol.
Warning:
Waters instruments and software can be used to analyze or
process potentially infectious human-sourced products, inactivated
microorganisms, and other biological materials. To avoid infection with
these agents, assume that all biological fluids are infectious, observe
Good Laboratory Practices, and consult your organization’s biohazard
safety representative regarding their proper use and handling. Specific
precautions appear in the latest edition of the US National Institutes of
Health (NIH) publication, Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical
Laboratories (BMBL).
