Installation of the burette

The instrument may not be used in dangerous environments.
The manufacturer and its suppliers reject any express or indirect guarantee for use with high-risk
activities.
Protect the instrument from temperature extremes, including heaters, direct sunlight and other
heat sources.
Note the following points so that the instrument will operate perfectly and have a long
service life.
• Place the instrument firmly on an even surface. Do not push any objects under the
instrument.
• The ambient temperature must be +15 to +40°C (+60 to +104°F).
• The relative humidity should be less than 80%; moisture should not condense on the
instrument.
• A minimum clearance of 15 cm (5.9 in.) must be ensured above and on all sides of the
device; this allows the air to circulate and prevents overheating of the electric parts.
The dosage arm of the stepper motor must be able to move freely.
• Do not operate or store the instrument in extremely dusty, humid or wet locations.
• Make sure that no liquids enter the instrument and immediately wipe away any liquids
that contact the instrument.
• Protect the instrument against vibrations, direct sunlight, corrosive gases as well as
strong magnetic and/or electric fields.
• Only use genuine replacement parts and accessories.
• Install the instrument in a levelled place and on a compact surface to minimize the
sound level of the instrument. This will avoid undesired resonances that can increase
the sound level.
• Keep the surface of the instrument and all accessories clean and dry at all times.
Splashes or spills on the instrument should be cleaned up immediately.
The instrument must be serviced by the manufacturer's service department at the
prescribed intervals.
The burette dispenses the titrant: EDTA 0.010 M TitraVer (P/N 205-53) solution.
The burette comprises the syringe, stepper motor and valve. The stepper motor and valve
are already installed in the TitraLab; the syringe has to be installed by the user.
Risk of injury to pinch points and cuts
Make sure that the titrator is never used/operated without the syringe cover.
Do not introduce your fingers on the bottom of the cover while the instrument is connected.
Make sure that the system is only assembled by qualified and trained personnel.
