  • Page 5: Intended Use

    Recirculating Cooler Intended use JULABO recirculating coolers have been designed to control the temperature of specific fluids in a bath tank. The units feature pump connections for temperature control of external systems (loop circuit). JULABO recirculating coolers are not suitable for direct temperature control of foods, semi-luxury foods and tobacco, or pharmaceutical and medical products.
  • Page 6: Operator Responsibility - Safety Instructions

    Operator responsibility – Safety instructions Operator responsibility – Safety instructions The products of JULABO ensure safe operation when installed, operated, and maintained according to common safety regulations. This section explains the potential dangers that may arise when operating the circulator and also specifies the most important safety precautions to preclude these dangers as far as possible.
  • Page 7 There are thermal dangers: Burn, scald, hot steam, hot parts and surfaces that can be touched. Hot surface warning. (The label is put on by JULABO) Observe the instructions in the manuals for instruments of a different make that you connect to the circulator, particularly the corresponding safety instructions.
  • Page 8: Disposal

    Operator responsibility – Safety instructions 2.1. Disposal The recirculating cooler contains a back-up battery that supplies voltage to the memory chips when the unit is switched off. Do not dispose of the battery with household waste! Depending on battery regulations in your country, you may be obligated to return used or defective batteries to collection sites.
