Normal laboratory procedures and regulations for handling such
materials should be followed.
All mains powered equipment is designed for operation with a fully
earthed mains supply. The mains earth connection to the equipment
must be connected, otherwise safety may be impaired.
Where reference is made to electrical safety the national regulations for
the country of use when fitting the power cord plugs should followed. A
qualified electrician should be consulted for all electrical connections. If
liquid is spilled on, or adjacent, to the instrument immediately isolate
the instrument and accessories from the electrical supply, by turning off
the power remote to the instrumentation.
It is the user's responsibility to carry out appropriate cleaning and
decontamination of the equipment if hazardous material is spilt on or
inside the equipment. Cleaning and decontamination are specified in
the relevant sections of this manual. Before using any other procedures,
users should check with the manufacturers that the proposed method
will not damage the equipment.
Whenever Safety Protection has been impaired the instrument and
accessories must be made inoperative and secured against any
unintended operation. The matter should then be referred to the local
Thermo Scientific service organisation. Safety protection is likely to be
impaired if the instrument fails to operate normally, or shows visible
damage. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer the safety protection provided by the equipment may be
impaired.
