General safety rules

x Install splash protection

To avoid any danger of injury by the needle, the splash protection

must always be installed when operating the 788 IC Filtration Sample

Processor!

x Install plug cover

To prevent any contamination of the mains and remote connection by

spilled solvents or chemicals, the plug cover must always be installed

when operating the 788 IC Filtration Sample Processor!

x Do not use caps together with the PEEK tube

If you are using the 6.1835.020 PEEK tube, the sample tubes may not

be sealed with caps because they cannot be pierced by the PEEK

tubing and the tubing may be damaged thereby.

x Handling of solvents

Check the pump tubing and all input and output leads periodically for

possible leaks. Follow the relevant instructions regarding the handling

of flammable and/or toxic solvents and their disposal.

x Regular exchange of pump tubings

Pump tubings constitute consumable material and must be replaced

from time to time (see section 6.3.3). Suitable measures must be

taken so that any leak which might occur in the pump tubing or

connections during unattended operation will cause no damage

(collection device for any liquid which may leak out).
