Observe the information below on the proper qualification of the
personnel installing and/or operating the pump.
Installation
Only skilled personnel are permitted to install the pump and to establish
the electrical connections according to the appropriate regulations.
Thermo Fisher Scientific recommends always having service personnel
certified by Thermo Fisher Scientific perform the installation (for brevity,
referred to as Thermo Fisher Scientific service engineer).
If a person other than a Thermo Fisher Scientific service engineer installs
and sets up the module, the installer is responsible for ensuring the
safety of the module and system.
General Operation
The pump is designed to be operated only by trained and qualified
personnel in a laboratory environment.
All users must know the hazards presented by the pump and the
substances they are using. All users should observe the related Safety
Data Sheets (SDSs).
Wear personal protective equipment and follow good laboratory
practice to protect you from hazardous substances. The appropriate
equipment depends on the hazard. For advice on the hazards and the
equipment required for the substances you are using, refer to the
material handling and safety data sheet provided by the vendor.
An eyewash facility and a sink should be available nearby. If any
substance contacts your skin or eyes, wash the affected area and seek
medical attention.
To protect you from chemical splashes, harmful liquids, or other
contamination, put on appropriate protective clothing, such as a lab
coat.
