Section 1 Safety
1-2
The circuit protector located on the rear of the circulator is not
intended to act as a disconnecting means.
Operate the circulator using only the supplied line cord. The
circulator's power cord is used as the disconnecting device, it must
be easily accessible at all times.
Never operate the bath with the immersion circulator removed.
Do not mount the immersion circulator backwards; the line cord could
contact the reservoir fluid. Ensure the electrical cords do not contact
any of the plumbing connections or tubing.
Never place the circulator in a location or atmosphere where excessive
heat, moisture, or corrosive materials are present.
Ensure the tubing you select meets your maximum temperature and
pressure requirements.
Ensure all communication and electrical connections are made prior to
starting the circulator.
Many refrigerants which may be undetectable by human senses
are heavier than air and will replace the oxygen in an enclosed area
causing loss of consciousness. Contact with leaking refrigerant
will cause skin burns. Refer to the chiller's nameplate for the type
of refrigerant used and then the refrigerant's SDS for additional
information.
Never operate the circulator without fluid in the reservoir.
Oil-based fluids expand when heated. Fill the reservoir only to the
minimum level.
Use only the approved fluids listed in this manual. Using other fluids
voids the warranty.
Transparent Acrylic Bath and Polyphenylene oxide (PPO) Bath
Circulators are used with water only.
Other than water, before using any approved fluid, or when performing
maintenance where fluid contact is likely, refer to the manufacturer's
SDS and EC Safety Data Sheet for handling precautions.
Ensure, that no toxic gases can be generated by the fluid. Flammable
gases can build up over the fluid during usage.
