4.1 General notes
4.1.1 Care
The 859 Titrotherm requires appropriate care. Excess contamination of the
instrument may result in functional disruptions and a reduction in the life-
time of the sturdy mechanics and electronics.
Spilled chemicals and solvents should be removed immediately. Above all,
the plug connections on the rear of the instrument (in particular the mains
connection socket) should be protected from contamination.
Caution
Although this is extensively prevented by design measures, the mains
plug should be unplugged immediately if aggressive media has penetra-
ted the inside of the instrument, so as to avoid serious damage to the
instrument electronics. In such cases, the Metrohm Service must be
informed.
4.1.2 Maintenance by Metrohm Service
Maintenance of the 859 Titrotherm is best carried out as part of an annual
service performed by specialist personnel of the Metrohm company. If
working frequently with caustic and corrosive chemicals, a shorter mainte-
nance interval could be necessary.
The Metrohm service department offers every form of technical advice for
maintenance and service of all Metrohm instruments.
