8.1.3 Accessories
For the care of the accessories, special safety measures must be
considered as these are measures that will ensure operational safety
at the same time.
Chemical reactions as well as stress-corrosion (combination of
oscillating pressure and chemical reaction) can affect or destroy the
metals. Barely detectable cracks on the surface can expand and
weaken the material without any visible signs.
Check the material regularly (at least once a month) for
- cracks
- visible damage of the surface
- pressure marks
- signs of corrosion
- other changes.
Replace any damaged components immediately for your own
safety.
Immediately rinse off the rotors or accessories if any liquids that
may cause corrosion come into contact with them.
Clean the accessories outside the rotational vacuum concentrator
once a week or preferably after each use.
If the rotors or accessories have been contaminated with toxic,
radioactive, or pathogenic substances, clean them immediately
with a suitable decontamination agent (depending on the type of
contamination). Take suitable precautions for your own safety if
there is a risk of toxic, radioactive, or pathogenic contamination.
8.1.3.1 Aluminium Accessories
Especially aluminum parts are susceptible to corrosion.
Acid-containing cleaning agents and alkaline cleaning agents
must be avoided.
Grease aluminum parts at least once a week with slushing oil for
the protection against corrosion.
This essentially increases their service life and reduces susceptibility
to corrosion.
