  • Page 10: Safety Instructions On Installation And Ambient Conditions

    1.5.1 Safety instructions on installation and ambient conditions Familiarize yourself with the local conditions, particularly allocation to a defined potentially explosive area (zones) and the relevant technical safety requirements. During installation, commissioning and operation of the vacuum drying oven and the connected vacuum pump or in-house vacuum supply, always follow the requirements defined by the installation site.

  • Page 14: Safety Instructions On Operating The Vacuum Drying Oven

    1.5.4 Safety instructions on operating the vacuum drying oven Note the following points before starting up the oven: • When loading the chamber and possibly at the moment of removal, also in the context of intended use, an explosive mixture may form in the working space. Define a safety area of at least 1m from the chamber front and ensure ventilation / venting.
  • Page 15 During operation with inert gas, the chamber is supplied with an oxygen displacing gas (e.g. N ). Inert gases in high concentrations are hazardous to health. They are colorless and almost odorless and there- fore practically imperceptible. Inhalation of inert gases can cause drowsiness up to respiratory arrest. When the O content of the air decreases below 18%, there is risk of death from lack of oxygen.
  • Page 16 Measures required for operation with solvent-containing materials that can form an explosive mixture with air: • Only trained personnel with key-authorization can work on the VDL vacuum drying oven • Sweep the area for electrical equipment with compressed air or inert gas for at least 15 minutes.

    Note on second-hand chambers (Ex-Demo-Units): Second-hand chambers are chambers that have been used for a short time for tests or exhibitions. They are thoroughly tested before resale. BINDER ensures that the chamber is technically sound and will work flawlessly. Second-hand chambers are marked with a sticker on the chamber door. Please remove the sticker be- fore commissioning the chamber.
