Safety Precautions
Safety Equipment
Use protective clothing when operating the reactor, including goggles or face mask, and gloves.
Reagent Spills
Clean up spilled reagents immediately. If reagent contacts skin, rinse the affected area thoroughly with water. Avoid breathing released vapors. Read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) supplied with each reagent for complete chemical information.
Fire Hazard
Avoid the presence of flammable liquids near the operating reactor. A fire hazard could be created.
Power Cord
A power cord suitable for 115 V ac line voltage is supplied with the DRB
200.
DANGER: Do not allow the power cord to pass under the instrument.

Section 1 Introduction

The DRB 200 is supplied as two models, with either one or two heating blocks ( solutions in round vials of various sizes at 37–165 °C for a period of 0–480 minutes. The small, 16 mm diameter openings on the heating block are suitable for Hach COD, Unicell, TOC, and Test N’ Tube tests. The larger, 20 mm diameter openings are intended for sample preparation reaction vessels, using the Metals Prep Set.
The DRB 200 has 6 stored and 3 programmable temperature programs.
