BRONKHORST FLEXI-FLOW Compact Instruction Manual page 13

During operation, fluid connections must not be loosened or disconnected under any circumstances.
When pressurizing, prevent pressure shocks by gradually bringing the fluid system to the required operating
pressure.
Bronkhorst does the utmost to ensure that you receive a clean product. This does not, however, relieve the user of the
responsibility to ensure that the equipment and the system in which it is incorporated meet the requirements implied
by the intended use of the product. The responsibility for cleaning the equipment to meet such requirements lies
exclusively with the user.
Depending on the properties of the process medium and the (expected) time until the next use, it is advisable to
·
flush the fluid system with a suitable (cleaning) fluid after use.
· If the equipment has been used to process corrosive, reactive or hazardous media (e.g. toxic or flammable),
cleaning the fluid system is imperative before it is exposed to air.
· If the equipment is not used for an extended period, the fluid system should be dry after use and after cleaning. If it
is not dry, it should be purged with a dry, inert gas for a minimum period of 30 minutes.
· Prior to powering down the FLEXI-FLOW, the fluid system should be depressurized.
· When depressurizing, prevent pressure shocks by shutting off the fluid supply gradually.
Inexpertly servicing instruments can lead to serious personal injury and/or damage to the instrument or the system it
is used in. Servicing must therefore be performed by trained and qualified personnel. Contact your Bronkhorst
representative for information about cleaning and calibration. Bronkhorst has trained staff available.
· Before disconnecting or disassembling any fluid system related parts, always make sure the fluid system is
depressurized to atmospheric pressure.
· When depressurizing, prevent sudden pressure changes by shutting off the fluid supply gradually.
