Do not use a flammable liquid. A fire hazard may
result. This unit is not explosion proof. Unit contains
components which may ignite such materials.
•
Use appropriate hand and eye protection when han-
dling hazardous chemicals.
•
The interior of the unit can reach temperatures that
can cause burns. Avoid contact. The unit can remain
hot without visual indication for some time after
power is turned off.
•
If you will use the water bath with any liquid that will
give off fumes, be sure to operate the water bath in
a fume hood or with proper ventilation.
•
Use the cover to reduce evaporation and to permit
reaching higher temperatures.
•
Hot liquids pose a burn hazard. Be careful not to
reach into the bath when it contains hot liquids. Also
be careful of steam rising from hot liquids.
•
The unit is intended to be operated with liquid in the
chamber. However, it will not be damaged if it tem-
porarily runs dry unless ignited by melting sam-
ples/plastic in the bath.
•
Do not use in highly corrosive atmospheres; corro-
sive fumes and spillage may damage the unit and its
internal components, creating a shock hazard.
•
Fumes from acidic solutions cause corrosion of the
stainless steel reservoir. Care should be taken to
maintain a neutral pH at all times.
•
Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
•
Do not place containers directly on bottom of cham-
ber. Bottom can get extremely hot if no liquid is in
the chamber. Always use the 1diffuser tray.
