We recommend operating the robotic coverslipper with an exhaust hose and connection to ex-
ternal laboratory extraction or under a suitable fume hood. The associated active carbon filter
is intended to be used in a supporting role for this. We recommend replacing the active carbon
filter every three months. Please note that the active carbon filter, when used alone, can filter
only a limited number of harmful vapors (e.g. xylene). The setup location can differ substan-
tially in terms of solvent loading, room ventilation, room/ambient temperature, room size, etc.
In case of doubt, the laboratory owner/operator must have measurements conducted on site to
ensure that the legal limits for solvent vapors are not being exceeded.
