In Case of Emergency

CAUTION—Sparking due to Electrostatic Discharge
Liquid flowing through capillaries can generate static electricity. This
effect is particularly present with insulating capillaries and non-
conductive solvents (for example, pure acetonitrile). Discharge of
electrostatic energy might lead to sparking, which could constitute a fire
hazard.
Prevent the generation of static electricity near the chromatography
system.
WARNING—Safety Hazard
In case of emergency, disconnect the system from the power line.
