  • Page 15: Safety Concept

    2. Safety • SPS-Systems Safety Concept Organic solvents are pushed through a solvent purification column by pressurizing a solvent reservoir with an inert gas – usually nitrogen. The system pressure is secured by a pressure relief valve to a maximum of 0.5 bar. An inert gas is used for pressurizing the system. Therefore during the intended use no gas mixture can be formed inside the system that could burn or explode.
