838 Advanced Sample Processor, Safety notes

Mains connection

This instrument must only be operated at the specified

mains voltages

(see rear panel of instrument).

2.3 Personal protection

The different drives of the Advanced Sample Processor and the Swing

Head possess considerable force in order that they can freely move

even under heavy loads. They are fitted with electronic overload limiters

that are triggered if the mechanical resistance is too high.

When the

instrument is running do not intrude in the working range

of the Sample Processor.
For the user there is a considerable

risk of injury from manual inter-

ference with the automatic processes of the instrument.


Important!

Before you use the instrument for the first time you must install the in-

cluded

6.2751.0xx Safety Guard, see p. 37.

The Sample Processor must not be operated without the Safety Guard

in position!

Biohazard

The Advanced Sample Processor does not provide sufficient protection

when processing potentially infectious samples or reagents.

In this case install the necessary safety devices.
