2 Safety information and use

Requirements for the user

2.1
This operating manual is intended for persons assigned with operating and monitoring the Fritsch the ANALYSETTE 3. The operating manual and especially its safety instructions are to be observed by all persons working on or with this device. In addition, the applicable rules and regu­lations for accident prevention at the installation site are to be observed. Always keep the operating manual at the installation site of the the ANA­LYSETTE 3.
People with health problems or under the influence of medication, drugs, alcohol or exhaustion must not operate this device.
The the ANALYSETTE 3 may only be operated by authorised persons and serviced or repaired by trained specialists. All commissioning, mainte­nance and repair work may only be carried out by technically qualified personnel. Qualified personnel are persons who, because of their educa­tion, experience and training as well as their knowledge of relevant standards, regulations, accident prevention guidelines and operating conditions, are authorised by those responsible for the safety of the machine to carry out the required work and are able to recognize and avoid possible hazards as defined for skilled workers in IEC 364.
In order to prevent hazards to users, follow the instructions in this manual.
Malfunctions that impair the safety of persons, the the ANALYSETTE 3 or other material property must be rectified immediately. The following information serves both the personal safety of operating personnel as well as the safety of the products described and any devices connected to them: All maintenance and repair work may only be performed by technically qualified personnel.
Safety information and use

2.2 Scope of application

This operating manual is not a complete technical description. Only the details required for operation and maintaining usability are described.
Fritsch has prepared and reviewed this operating manual with the greatest care. However, no guarantee is made for its completeness or accuracy.
Subject to technical modifications.
The "ANALYSETTE 3 PRO" is a vertical vibrating laboratory sieve shaker used for the exact separation and classification of grain fractions. Dry bulk solids as well as particle collectives in suspensions can be analysed. Depending on feed quantity and grain size, the test sieves and sieve pans can be clamped with different diameters and heights.

Safety information and use
CAUTION!
The conversion of the "ANALYSETTE 3 PRO" to the micro mill "PULVERISETTE 0" cannot be recommended, as the amplitude control is unusable due to the ball collision mal­functions and therefore has no utility value. In this case, the "ANALYSETTE 3" SPARTAN is more suitable.
However if you are using the PRO version with the PULVERI­SETTE 0 grinding attachment, note that the amplitude must not be set to > 2 mm, as otherwise damage will be caused to the device, for which we accept no responsibility.
The "ANALYSETTE 3 SPARTAN" is equivalent in design to the PRO model, except that the range of functions is limited. The serial interface, elec­tronic amplitude control, amplitude display, interval time specification, micro sieving option as well as the standby function are not included.
2.2.1

Operating principle

2.2.2 Amplitude control

The plastic housing contains a solid cast structure with an electronically controlled electromagnet. Three permanently flexible flat springs carry the pole plate of this magnet together with the vibratory plate, which is fastened to it. When the magnet is switched on, the pole plate and vibra­tory plate are attracted and spring back when it is switched off. The cast structure and magnet on one side and the pole plate, vibratory plate and sieves on the other side form a vibratory system.
The different number of sieves and sieving stocks or grinding attach­ments changes the natural frequency of the vibratory system. For this reason, it is not always possible to set the amplitude of the sieve shaker optimally e.g. with a constant 50 Hz mains frequency present. The pro­cessor-controlled electronics of the ANALYSETTE 3 PRO sieve shaker ensures a precisely adjustable, reproducible sieve amplitude. This is ach­ieved by bringing the frequency to stimulate oscillation closer to the nat­ural frequency of the system or farther away from it. The desired oscilla­tion amplitude of the sieve stack between 0.1 mm and 3.0 mm can always be achieved - and with relatively low energy input. Therefore, continuous operation is possible without heating the sample material and the overall sieve system.
An electronic control circuit guides the sieve frequency of the ANALY­SETTE 3 PRO from a high to a low frequency range. In the meantime, a measuring system records the amplitude and reports it to the control cir­cuit until the preselected amplitude is reached.
This amplitude control takes place at regular intervals during the entire operation. This makes it possible to react to changes in the sieve system.

Obligations of the operator

2.3
Safety information and use
The amplitude of the ANALYSETTE 3 SPARTAN is set manually with the Plus and Minus key on the control panel and viewed on the lid.
Before using the the ANALYSETTE 3, this manual is to be carefully read and understood. The use of the the ANALYSETTE 3 requires technical knowledge; only commercial use is permitted.
The operating personnel must be familiar with the content of the oper­ating manual. For this reason, it is very important that these persons actually receive the present operating manual. Ensure that the operating manual is always near the device.
The the ANALYSETTE 3 may exclusively be used within the scope of appli­cations set down in this manual and within the framework of guidelines put forth in this manual. In case of non-compliance or improper use, the customer assumes full liability for the functional capability of the ANALY­SETTE 3 and for any damage or injury arising from failure to fulfil this obligation.
By using the the ANALYSETTE 3 the customer agrees with this and recog­nizes that defects, malfunctions or errors cannot be completely excluded. To prevent risk of damage to persons or property or of other direct or indirect damage, resulting from this or other causes, the cus­tomer must implement sufficient and comprehensive safety measures for working with the the ANALYSETTE 3.
Neither compliance with this manual nor the conditions and methods used during installation, operation, use and maintenance of the the ANA­LYSETTE 3 can be monitored by Fritsch GmbH. Improper execution of the installation can result in property damage and thus endanger persons. Therefore, we assume absolutely no responsibility or liability for loss, damage or costs that result from errors at installation, improper opera­tion or improper use or improper maintenance or are in any way con­nected to these.
The applicable accident prevention guidelines must be complied with.
Generally applicable legal and other obligatory regulations regarding environmental protection must be observed.

Safety information and use
DANGER! Explosion hazard!
When Sieving oxidizable substances, e.g. metals or coal,
there is a risk of spontaneous combustion (dust explo­sion) if the share of fine particles exceeds a certain per­centage. When Sieving these kinds of substances, spe­cial safety measures must be taken and the work must be supervised from a specialist.
The high-speed rotor mill is not explosion protected
and is not designed to sieve explosive materials.
n Do not remove the information signs.
NOTICE!
Immediately replace damaged or illegible information signs.

2.6 Protective equipment

n Unauthorised alteration of the the ANALYSETTE 3 will void Fritsch's
declaration of conformity to European directives and void the guar­antee.
n Only use the the ANALYSETTE 3 when it is in proper working order,
as intended and in a safety- and hazard-conscious manner adhering to the operating manual. In particular, immediately rectify any mal­functions that could pose a safety hazard.
n If, after reading the operating manual, there are still questions or
problems, please do not hesitate to contact our specialised per­sonnel.
Protective equipment is to be used as intended and may not be disabled or removed.
All protective equipment is to be regularly checked for integrity and proper functioning.
NOTICE!
The toothed belts must only be released or clamped in
the switched off state. Before switching on again, ensure that the two toothed
belts are evenly, tightly clamped using the knurled knobs.
