Isotech milliK User Maintenance Manual/Handbook page 7

The milliK is likely to be connected to thermometer sensors in use and the user should take
care to ensure that the complete system is safe. For example, metal sheathed thermometers
!
may be connected to the milliK and then placed in a furnace powered from a 230V electrical
supply. Single fault conditions in such a furnace could lead to the thermometer wires and the
front terminals of the milliK, to which they are connected, becoming electrically live and
therefore a hazard to the user. Suitable precautions should be taken, such as using an
isolating transformer in the supply to such a furnace. If you require further advice on safety
issues, please contact Isothermal Technology or one of our appointed distributors - we have
extensive experience of thermometry and can provide advice and equipment to help you.
Retain these instructions. Use only as specified in these operating instructions or the intrinsic
protection may be impaired.
