WARNING Imploding glass devices!
Serious injuries from shattering glass.
 Check glass devices for damages (stars, breaks, cracks, etc.)
 Only use perfect glass devices and replace all damaged
glassware as soon as possible..
 Verify that the interior and exterior pressure variance equals
no more than 2 bar.
DANGER Potential loss of life due to dangerous electrical voltage!
Serious risk of injuries.
Residual electrical energy remains in the electrical wires, equip-
ment and machines, when the evaporator is switched off.
 Inform operating personnel of outlets. Disconnect the sockets
from the power source to completely de-energize.
 Work on the power supply must only be performed by an
electrician. Switch off the power switch.
 Disconnect the evaporator from the power supply. Routinely
check the electrical equipment (power lines) of the evaporator
for any wear or fraying of wires.
 Replace burned or melted power lines. Routinely check all
power cables for damages within the scope of maintenance
and repair services.
Only disconnect the basic device with the heating bath if the de-
vice is de-energized. Unplug main power supply.
DANGER Risks of injuries and mortal danger when disregarding safety
instructions and safe distances!
Risk of injury.
Risks exist when disregarding safety instructions and the safe
distance to the machine.
 Observe safety instructions and signs on the evaporator and
in these operating instructions. Adhere to the corresponding
safe distance to the equipment.
DANGER Danger of fire and explosions!
Serious risk of fire and explosions.
A risk of fire and explosions exists in the vicinity of the evaporator.
Fire, open flame and smoking are prohibited near the equipment.
 Flammable liquids may not be stored within the danger zone
of the evaporator. A fire extinguisher must be kept near the
equipment.
 Avoid potential ignition sources, such as ignitable atmos-
pheres or reactions or electrostatic charges.
 Avoid exothermic reactions or the spontaneous ignition of
dust.
 Avoid adiabatic compression and shock waves.
 Particular caution to reactions of explosion group IIC, in which
hydrogen can develop.
