This operating manual contains essential instructions for operating and maintaining
the device which must be strictly observed. It is essential that they be read by the
operator and by the qualified staff responsible for the device before the device is
commissioned. This operating manual must be available and accessible at the
place of use at all times.
The user of the device herewith confirms to the managing operator (owner) that
(s)he has received sufficient instructions about the operation and maintenance of
the system. The user has received the operating manual, has read and taken note
of its contents and consequently has all the information required for safe operation
and is sufficiently familiar with the device.
As the owner/managing operator you should for your own protection have your
employees confirm that they have received the instructions about the operation of
the machine.

Machine Type Designation: AS200jet
The AS200jet is specially designed for the dry sieving and the particle size
determination of fine-grained, dry, pourable and dispersed bulk materials. The
sieve holder is particularly suitable for the Retsch 203-mm-diameter test sieves.
This device offers user-friendly operation with rotary knob control and a large
graphic display. All sieve parameters are set, indicated and monitored digitally.
Work is also made easier by the possibility of storing up to 9 and 10 (QUICK
START) parameter combinations directly in the sieve shaker for frequently
repeated sieving operations under the same conditions. The QUICK START key
allows direct access to a combination of parameters.
The device can be controlled and adjusted with the EasySieve® evaluation
software. With EasySieve® all sieve parameters are displayed on the screen
before and during the sieving procedure.
The AS200jet can then reduce the average sieving times in samples with a high
fine fraction.

Technical data
NOTICE
Area of use of the machine
– This machine is a laboratory machine designed for 8-hour single-shift
operation.
•This machine may not be used as a production machine nor is it
intended for continuous operation.
NOTE
Defects in components due to liquids
Penetration of liquids inside the housing
– Components are damaged and the correct functioning of the device is no
longer assured.
• Do not use this device for any wet sieving.
CAUTION
Hearing damage or hearing loss
Suction noise at the suction opening
– The volume and/or force of drawn-in air can damage
hearing or cause hearing loss.
•Keep your ears away from the air inlet in the channel.
Use hearing protection.
CAUTION
V0050
Failure to hear acoustic signals
Loud suction noise on the air inlet
– It is possible that some acoustic warnings and voice communication may
not be noticed.
•Take the strength of the suction noise into consideration when
designing your acoustic signals in the working environment.
Possibly additionally use visual signals.

Noise characteristics:
The noise is measured in accordance with DIN 45635-031-01-KL3
The AS 200 jet itself is constructed in a manner that prevents any significant
development of noise.
The noise characteristics of the connected industrial vacuum cleaner depend on
the set suction force and suction load.
When the NILFISK HDS2000 is used at max. suction stage II, the average sound
pressure level without sample filling is 72dB.
To reduce the suction noise, the provided sound absorber (IS) can be connected to
