Safety Information

Hazard placard

placement

Hazard placards contain specific safety information and are affixed directly to the
system so they are plainly visible.

Each placard describes a system-related hazard. When possible, international
symbols (icons) are used to graphically indicate the type of hazard and the
placard label indicates its severity. In some instances, the placard may contain
text that describes the hazard, the potential result if the hazard is ignored, and
general instructions about how to avoid the hazard.

Know system limits

Never rely on system limits such as mechanical limits or software limits to
protect you or any personnel. Limits are designed to minimize the chance of
accidental damage to test specimens or to equipment. Test all limits for proper
operation immediately before a test. Always use these limits and adjust them
properly.

High temperature

hazards

Instructions in setting up the heating circulator bath can be found in the vendor
documentation. The customer is responsible for ensuring that the process
temperature is set below the boiling point of the process fluid. Perform
overtemperature interlock testing as recommended by the heating circulator bath
documentation.

Toxicity of process

fluid

Be sure to follow the safety warnings in the MSDS for the process fluids.
