1. Safety Instructions

▪
When working, wear personal protective equipment to avoid the risks from:
- Splashing and evaporation of liquids
- Release of toxic or combustible gases
▪
Set up the instrument on a spacious, stable, clean, non-slip, dry, and fireproof surface. Do not operate the instrument
in explosive atmospheres, with hazardous substances, or under water.
▪
Gradually increase the speed. Reduce the speed if:
- Stirring bar breaks due to high speed
- The instrument is not running smoothly or the container moves on the base plate
▪
Temperature must always be set at least 50 ºC below the flash point of the media used.
▪
Be aware of hazards due to:
- Flammable materials or media with a low boiling temperature
- Overfilling of media
- Unsafe container
▪
If the stirring bar contains PTFE, please note:
- Elemental fluorine, trifluoride ion, and alkali metals will corrode PTFE. Halogen hydrocarbons expand PTFE at
room temperature.
- Molten alkali, alkaline earth metals or their solution, as well as elements on second and third column of the
Periodic Table of elements will react with PTFE when temperature reaches 300 ~ 400 ºC.
▪
Process pathogenic materials only in closed vessels.
