Wet crushing

- Operating modes: Manual mode

On stand

Range of use (indoor use only)

- Laboratories

- Schools

- Pharmacies

- Universities

This instrument is suitable for use in all areas except:
- Residential areas
- Areas that are connected directly to a low-voltage supply network

that also supplies residential areas.

The safety of the user cannot be guaranteed:
- If the instrument is operated with accessories that are not supplied

or recommended by the manufacturer

- If the instrument is operated improperly or contrary to the manu-

facture’s specifications

- If the instrument or the printed circuit board are modified by the

third parties.

• Powder can not be too close to the flange. It can be blown away

by air turbulences of the drive.

• The instrument starts up again following a cut in the power sup-

ply. Please note that the instrument must be switched off at the
ON/OFF switch in this case before the power supply is recon-
nected.

• The instrument can only be disconnected from the mains supply

by pulling out the mains plug or the connector plug.

• The socket for the mains cord must be easily accessible.
• Always disconnect the plug before fitting accessories.
• Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories described

in the ”Accessories” chapter.

Never run dispersion tools dry, as the gasket
and bearings will be destroyed if the tools are
not cooled by the medium.

• The voltage stated on the nameplate must correspond to the

mains voltage.

• Protect the instrument and accessories from bumps and impacts.
• The instrument can only be opened by experts.
• Removable parts must be refitted to the instrument to prevent

the infiltration of foreign objects, liquids etc.

• Do not cover the ventilation slots on the drive in order to ensure

adequate cooling of the drive.

• The gasket and bearings are made of PTFE and rustproof steel; the

following points should therefore be noted: Chemical reactions of
PTFE occur in contact with molten or solute alkali metals and alka-
line earth metals, as well as with fine powders of metals in groups
2 and 3 of the periodic system at temperatures above 300 °C - 400
°C. Only elementary fluorine, chlorotrifluoride and alkali metals at-
tack it; halogenated hydrocarbons have a reversible swelling effect.
