Disposal Of The Device; Fluids; Correct Use; Use - IKA HRC 2 basic Operating Instructions Manual

• Do not transport or empty the bath while it is still hot/
cold� This may result in accidents, especially scalding inju-
ries or frostbite�

Disposal of the device:

• The device must be disposed of in accordance with na-
tional or local regulations�

Fluids:

Beware of the risk of burning due
CAUTION
to delay in boiling!
Only use fluids, which fulfill the re-
WARNING
quirements for safety, health and
device compatibility� Be aware of
the chemical hazards that may be associated with the bath
fluid used� Observe all safety warnings for the fluids�
• Depending on the bath fluid used and the type of opera-
tion, toxic or flammable vapors can arise� Ensure suitable
extraction�
• Do not use any fluid which may cause dangerous reac-
tions during processing�
• Only use recommended bath fluids� Only use non-acid
and non corroding fluids�
Only process and heat up any fluid
WARNING
that has a flash point higher than
the adjusted safe temperature limit
that has been set� The safe temperature limit must always
be set to at least 25 ºC lower than the flash point of the
fluid used� Examine regularly the function of the safety
temperature limiter�
Never operate the device without
NOTICE
sufficient heat carrier fluid! Check
the fluid level detection at a regular
basis (see the chapter "Filling and draining")�

• Use:

Use HRC 2 (Heated Recirculating Chiller) for tempering
and circulating fluids�
Intended Use: Tabletop device

• Range of use (indoor use only):

- Laboratories - Schools
- Pharmacies - Universities
• Continuous monitoring of the bath and the filling level of
the bath fluid is required, especially at high temperatures�
• To ensure a sufficient fluid circulation, the viscosity of the
bath fluid must not exceed of 50mm
erating temperature�
NOTICE
• Untreated tap water is not recommended� It is recom-
mended to use distilled water or high purity water (ion ex-
changers) and add 0�1 g soda (sodium carbonate Na
/liter, to reduce corrosive properties�
CAUTION
NOTICE
- Untreated tap water
- Acids or bases
- Solutions with halides: chlorides, fluorides, bromides,
iodides or sulfur
- Bleach (Sodium Hypochlorite)
- Solution with chromates or chromium salts
- Glycerine
- Ferrous water�
NOTICE
ing hoses and external devices)� When doing this, also
open the stopper and union nuts caps of the pump out-
puts and inputs and blow compressed air through all the
pump outputs and inputs! Beware of the risk of burning
due to delay in boiling!

Correct use

This instrument is suitable for use in all areas except:
- Residential areas
- Areas that are connected directly to a low-voltage supply
network that also supplies residential areas�
The safety of the user cannot be guaranteed:
- If the device is operated with accessories that are not sup-
plied or recommended by IKA
- If the device is operated improperly or in contrary to the
IKA specifications�
®
- If the device or the printed circuit board are modified by
third parties�
/s at the lowest op-
2
If water is used at higher tempera-
ture, there is heavy loss of fluid due
to the evaporation of the steam�
Risk of burning caused by vapor or
hot water at the outlet of the cool-
ing coil�
Don't use following fluids:
When changing the bath fluid type,
must remove the remaining water
from the complete system (includ-
