Possible fault sources to avoid

Potential faults
Defective (for e.g. bent)
mixing blades or other
mixing blades than those
supplied are used.
The mixing blade is ope-
rated without a jar with
the device.
Jars with a nominal volu-
me from 300 ml are used.
When inserting the mi-
xing blade in the jar lid,
the sealing lip of the jar lid
opening breaks with the
noses of the mixing blade
shaft.
The base of the jar is not
pushed down as far as
the stop before weighing
in the ingredients.
For the manufacture of
low-viscose preparations,
the sealing lips of the jar
base are not wet with an
ointment base.
The air is not removed
from the jar before the
mixing of semi-solid pre-
parations.
The air is not removed
from the jar before the
mixing of liquid prepara-
tions.
The mixing unit is not
held firmly with at least
one hand during the enti-
re mixing period.
After heavy loads, the de-
vice is not switched off for
cooling.

Possible consequences
The mixing blade does not engage
or engages only partly in the bayo-
net mount.
Risk of injury upon contact with the
rotating mixing blade.
The device switches off as a result
of an overload.
Ointment elements (mainly liquid)
may draw up at the shaft of the
mixing blade during the mixing pro-
cess.
All recipe components cannot be
housed in the jar, although the filling
volume is on average 40% larger
than the nominal volume.
Mixed material may emerge at the
jar base during preparation.
An air column forms on the inside
of the jar when mixing the ointment,
in which the mixing blade cannot
clean itself. Unmixed elements may
remain stuck on the mixing blade.
During mixing overpressure ari-
ses which cannot be reduced by
pushing down the movable base.
As a result, ointment can draw up
on the shaft of the mixing blade du-
ring the mixing process.
Risk of injury as a result of unstable
holding of the mixing unit during the
entire mixing process.
In the event of an overload, a ther-
mal safety element shuts down the
device.
Troubleshooting
Only use intact SAMIX
®
des with appropriate shaft length
(see section „3.2.3 Assignment of
mixing blades to the jars").
Only use mixing blades with the
SAMIX BR200 in jars which have
®
been firmly screwed in.
Only use jars with a nominal volume
up to 200 ml.
When inserting the mixing blade in
the jar lid, do not break the sealing
lip of the jar lid opening with the no-
ses of the mixing blade shaft.
Perform air reduction before the mi-
xing process.
Press down the base of the jar fully
before weighing in the ingredients.
Use the next biggest jar.
Wet the sealing lips of the base
with ointment base to support the
sealing effect.
Perform air reduction before the mi-
xing process.
Perform air reduction before the mi-
xing process.
Firmly hold the mixing unit with at
least one hand during the entire mi-
xing period.
Set the adjusting knob to "0". Switch
off the device and allow to cool for
30 minutes.
