Exhaust System; Inserting The Active Carbon Filter - Leica CV5030 Instructions For Use Manual

4.5

Exhaust system

Note
We recommend operating the robotic coverslipper with an exhaust hose and connection to external
laboratory extraction or under a suitable fume hood. The associated active carbon filter is intended
to be used in a supporting role for this. We recommend replacing the active carbon filter every three
months. Please note that the active carbon filter, when used alone, can filter only a limited number of
harmful vapors (e.g. xylene). The setup location can differ substantially in terms of solvent loading,
room ventilation, room/ambient temperature, room size, etc. In case of doubt, the laboratory owner/
operator must have measurements conducted on site to ensure that the legal limits for solvent vapors
are not being exceeded.
Warning
Active carbon filter not handled appropriately
Serious injury, instrument damage, threat to environment
• Customers are generally allowed to replace an exhausted active carbon filter with a new one
according to the description in (→ p. 25 – 4.5.1 Inserting the active carbon filter).
• Additionally, safety instructions regarding the absence of voltage in the device as well as local
laboratory regulations have to be observed.
