The bath is a precision instrument. Although it has been
designed for optimum durability and trouble free
operation, it must be handled with care. The instrument
should not be operated in excessively dusty or dirty
environments. Do not operate near flammable materials.
If the bath is operated at higher temperatures where fluid
vaporization is significant, a fume hood should be used.
When filling the tank, ensure the immersion coils are
completely covered.
DO NOT operate the bath without fluid.
DO NOT overfill the bath. Overflowing fluid may damage
the electrical system. See Section 4.3, Bath Preparation
and Filling, for specific instructions.
Read Section 5, Bath Use, before placing the bath into
service.
DO NOT change the values of the bath calibration
constants from the factory set values. The correct
setting of these parameters is important to the safety
and proper operation of the bath.
The Factory Reset Sequence should be performed only
by authorized personnel if no other action is successful
in correcting a malfunction. You must have a copy of the
most recent Report of Test to restore the test
parameters.
DO NOT operate this instrument in an excessively wet,
oily, dusty, or dirty environment.
Most probes have handle temperature limits. Be sure
that the probe handle temperature limit is not exceeded
in the air above the instrument.
The instrument and any thermometer probes used with it
are sensitive instruments that can be easily damaged.
Always handle these devices with care. Do not allow
them to be dropped, struck, stressed, or overheated.
This bath is not designed to be portable. Therefore,
moving the bath once it has been installed should be
kept to a minimum. Never move a bath that is full of
fluid. This action could be extremely dangerous and
could result in personal injury to the person moving the
bath.
If the bath must be moved, be sure to drain the fluid to
prevent any injury. To safely move the bath, two people
are required.
