WARNING!
Risk of injury and loss of property due to dam-
aged vessel!
A damaged culture vessel (e.g. cracks, scratches,
etc.) can burst when under pressure. This can lead
to severe injuries and loss of property!
Therefore:
– Check the culture vessel on damages and re-
place as necessary before every use.
CAUTION!
Risk of damaging the sensor cables!
Removing the vessel from the vessel holder with-
out disconnecting the cable connections between
the different sensors and equipment or without re-
moving the temperature sensor from the pocket in
the vessel top plate can damage the sensor cables
and destruct their functionality.
Therefore:
– Disconnect all cable and hose connections be-
tween vessel and equipment, before removing
the vessel.
Disconnecting the vessel from the basic unit
To disconnect the vessel from the basic unit, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect all hoses and cable connections between vessel
and basic unit.
2. Compress both clamps of the snap closure between the ther-
mal blocks until they are engaged.
