Caution
This symbol draws attention to a possible damage of
instruments or instrument parts.
Note
This symbol marks additional information and tips.
1.2.1
Tubing and capillary connections
CAUTION
Leaks in tubing and capillary connections are a safety risk. Tighten all
connections well by hand. Avoid applying excessive force to tubing
connections. Damaged tubing ends lead to leakage. Appropriate tools
can be used to loosen connections.
Check the connections regularly for leakage. If the instrument is used
mainly in unattended operation, then weekly inspections are mandatory.
1.2.2 Flammable solvents and chemicals
WARNING
All relevant safety measures are to be observed when working with
flammable solvents and chemicals.
￭ Set up the instrument in a well-ventilated location.
￭ Keep all sources of flame far from the workplace.
￭ Clean up spilled liquids and solids immediately.
￭ Follow the safety instructions of the chemical manufacturer.

1.2.3 Filling the dosing cylinder
CAUTION
If a buret tip is clogged, then it could happen that no liquid will be aspirated when the dosing cylinder is being filled. A vacuum can arise as a
result.
If you then remove the exchange unit from the instrument, the piston
could destroy the dosing cylinder.
Do not fail to loosen the tubing connections on the dosing cylinder
first, before you remove the exchange unit. This will eliminate the vacuum.
