Risk of fire or explosion. Nonconductive, nonpolar liquids at lin-
ear velocities greater than 40 cm/sec will develop an electro-
static charge. If this applies to your application, racks must be
installed correctly on the guide pins to ground the collection
vessels. An electrical ground is necessary to dissipate electro-
static charges that may build while collecting fluids such as
organic solvents.
5. Verify that the spring-loaded post on the left side of the
rack is touching the guide pin (Figure 2-13).
