CAUTION
The Halogen Moisture Analyzer works with heat!
a) Ensure sufficient free space around the instrument to avoid heat accumulation
and overheating (approx. 1 m free space above the heating module).
b) The vent over the sample must never be covered, plugged, taped over or
tampered with in any other way.
c) Do not place any combustible materials on, under or next to the instrument
since the area around the heating module may be hot.
d) Exercise caution when removing the sample. The sample itself, the sample
chamber, the draft shield and any sample vessels used may still be very
hot.
e) During operation, you should never open the heating module itself as the
ring-shaped heating reflector or its protective glass can reach 400 ° C! If
you have to open the heating module e.g. for maintenance, disconnect the
instrument from the power supply and wait until the heating module has
cooled down completely.
f) No modifications must be made within the heating module. It is particularly
dangerous to bend any components or remove them or to make any
other changes.
Certain samples require special care!
With certain types of samples, there is a possibility of danger to personnel or damage of
property.
Please note that the user always has the responsibility and liability for damage caused by
use of any types of samples!
CAUTION
Fire or Explosion
• Flammable or explosive substances.
• Substances containing solvents.
• Substances which evolve flammable or explosive gases or vapors when
heated.
a) In cases of doubt, perform a careful risk analysis.
b) Work at a drying temperature that is low enough to prevent the formation
of flames or an explosion.
c) Wear protective goggles.
d) Work with small amounts of sample.
e) Never leave the instrument unattended!
WARNING
Substances which contain toxic or caustic components
Toxic gases produced during drying could cause irritations (eyes, Skin,
breathing), illness or death.
– Such substances may be dried only in a fume cupboard.
CAUTION
Corrosion
Substances which evolve corrosive vapors when heated (e.g. acids).
– Work with small amounts of samples as the vapor can condense on cooler
housing parts and cause corrosion.
